About Axel
"Puppies are Raised with Modified Puppy Culture"
I raise my puppies using a modified "Puppy Culture" method includes the start of potty training, some obedience, and introduction to daily inside & outside household noises.
When they go home to their new family they will have their age appropriate shots, de-wormed, 1 yr health guarantee. Pet Puppies are sold on a spay/neuter contract. Parents are registered through AKC and have Champion Bloodlines in the pedigree.
All our pups are raised in our home under foot, where they can hear the daily duties of our everyday lives. They are born in our whelping box in my home. They start to learn to potty in a box outside of their sleeping area and know how to eat and drink from a bowl. They begin their transformation before they go to their new forever homes. As they age they are introduced to toys and other age related items. I also have them follow me around and hold, kiss and love on them to start the bonding process.
