Learning

Our outside puppy play yard has some toddler toys that make great puppy play items. One of the items is a small play gym with a slide. Some of our puppies have actually figured out how to get up there and go down the slide! All of the items are not just there for puppy entertainment. The play equipment helps the puppies practice their agility and problem-solving skills. 

On our agenda for a future purchase is one of the plastic mini-cabins for kids. We think our puppies will love that!

Housebreaking

Puppies must grow up in a clean environment or they can be very difficult to housebreak. Our Double Ring puppies are extremely easy to housebreak because we start potty training them in the whelping box. Once the puppies are well up on the feet, we fold the sheep skin pad to 2/3 and put newspapers down in the remaining 1/3. Puppies learn very quickly that it is nice to lie on the sheepskin pad and begin to potty on the papers. Once they are moved to our kitchen, papers are put near the back door. Putting papers at your exit door when taking the puppy home will aid in quickly housebreaking your puppy.  

Our puppies regularly get our personalized individual time, as well as group time with us. We introduce them to other adult dogs besides their mom.  We affectionately call the old girls who interact with puppies their "Aunt Grandmas."

Temperament Testing

At seven weeks old, we do temperament testing. We use the temperament test designed for livestock guarding dogs. It is not a Pass or Fail test. It is simply an indicator of each puppy's propensity in various areas. 

Some of the scores can help us determine how well suited a puppy would be to any given home.

For example, we would not allow a puppy with a low pain threshold go to a home with small children. Children should be expected to treat a puppy/dog with respect, but a puppy/dog should be able to tolerate and forgive being accidentally stepped on, or have its hair pulled by a small child.

From a happy puppy buyer: "I couldn't believe how well-adjusted and confident our new puppy was from the moment that he arrived home. It is obvious that you have spent a lot of time and energy introducing him to all the things that a smart puppy needs to know.
