Litter and program updates

Litter update on 12 May •…We can finally see some little peepers!!! We definitely are seeing a few blue spots/blue eyes but still a little early to guarantee. They are starting to move around up on their feet and hopefully we’ll start to see personalities soon! 🐶

+8Kupo, our Cavapoo pup is officially 3 months old!! He’s so bright and responsive. He sits, comes, and is 85 percent potty trained (lol some occasional slips due to “user error”). He’s eager to please and settles into his crate no issues, as long as he’s been properly engaged mentally, physically, and emotionally. This does take some effort, but only about an hour each morning and afternoon. After that he’s ready for a nice long nap! Kristie was great. She gave us lots of info right upfront. No surprise fees. She sent us lots of updates pre exchange and gave us lots of goodies too. We still use the collar, leash, puppy dolly, and chew toy she provided at drop off. Did I mention she brought him to our home!? The best experience me and my boys could ask for.

I’d never bought a dog from a breeder before or had a puppy, and Kristie was a great person to learn from. She responded to all my messages promptly, answered my many, MANY questions, and sent tons of photos. When the big day came to get our Luna, a cockapoo, Kristie was going to fly to us with her. There was a snowstorm and her flight was cancelled, so we each drove about 12 hours to meet midway. She provided us not only with our wonderful dog, but also a bag of goodies (food, poop bags, a blanket with mama and litter mates’ accents, a squeaky toy with those scents, all vet records, and more). There were no surprises and in fact Kristie lowered the travel fee by several hundred dollars because we’d had to drive to meet her. I’ve sent her updates since getting Luna and she’s always responded, happy to see her thriving. An overall great experience!
