HOW IT ALL BEGAN

 

Following the birth of my third child, balancing the demands of a full-time public job became increasingly challenging. Additionally, I felt a strong desire to provide my children with the same upbringing I had experienced, which involved working daily on our family farm with cattle and horses.
After thoughtful consideration, my family and I decided to embark on a new adventure: raising puppies. After all, who doesn’t love puppies? This venture allowed me to become a stay-at-home parent while providing a valuable learning experience for my children, as we worked together caring for these adorable animals.

Inspired by the idea of crossbreeding, I welcomed my first litter of “puggles” into the world and instantly fell in love. I felt incredibly fortunate to not only witness the joy these precious puppies brought to their new forever homes but also to have the opportunity to be present for my children during their formative years. Life has a way of changing, and I found myself navigating the role of a single mother with my kids on the cusp of adulthood. 

During these trying times, my love for raising puppies and caring for dogs has been a constant source of motivation and purpose. Every new litter of puppies still fills me with a sense of awe and wonder. Reflecting on my journey, I never would have envisioned this path for myself, but it has led to countless blessings and personal growth. I remain eternally grateful for the joy and fulfillment that raising these beautiful animals has brought to my life.

OUR SERVICES

All puppies begin potty training at two weeks old, learning how to use a doggie-door to go to the bathroom outside by the time they are 8 weeks old. From the time the puppies are only a few days old, they’ll receive daily socialization and hands on play. They will be introduced to environmental complexity such as smells, home sounds, objects and flooring textures.  We believe in letting nature takes its natural course, therefore the mom is allowed to wean her puppies herself which decreases stress but also teaches submissiveness and dominance- making training much easier.

All puppies are up to date on puppy vaccinations including a Parvo booster, they are dewormed bi-weekly and microchipped. We offer a one-year health guarantee against any congenital defects, a health certificate, and report for Veterinary Exam indicating good health.

DELIVERY

We’ve been transporting puppies for over 20 years, which is very safe and secure. Transportation is anywhere in USA or Canada via air or ground. Puppies flying will board air Cargo out of St. Louis Lambert Airport and arrive at your closest major airport . You will receive an airway bill number to track you flight. Your puppy will be ready for pickup 45-60 minutes after arrival. The crate is has bedding, food, and water. The puppy has room to move around comfortably. We highly recommend waiting until you get home to take your puppy out of the crate due to nervousness and risk of diseases (Parvo), on public flooring. Even though your puppy has received vaccinations against Parvo, their immune system is not fully developed until six months of age. All paperwork will be taped to the top of the crate. (Vet report, vaccination/deworming record and microchip information).
