    Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.

    A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.

    We’re absolutely in love with our new puppy from Courtney! Sandy is incredibly sweet, loving, and full of energy. From the very beginning, Courtney has been so attentive and caring, always checking in and asking how our puppy is doing. You can truly tell how much she cares about her puppies even after they go to their new homes. Getting our puppy from Courtney has been an amazing experience, and I highly recommend her as a breeder. We are so grateful to have found her and absolutely adore our little girl🐶🤍

    After losing our male Lab of 10 years to cancer, our home felt empty, and we knew we were ready to welcome a new puppy when the time was right. Finding the right breeder mattered to us because we were not just looking for a dog, we were looking for a healthy, well-bred puppy with a good temperament from someone who truly cared about the breed. We found Àine Amstaffs through Good Dog, and from the start the experience was excellent. What stood out to us was their dedication to the breed, the limited litters, and the clear focus on quality and temperament rather than just producing puppies. They responded the same day, were very nice, and were willing to help with anything we asked. They were open, honest, and provided everything we were looking for, including photos, video, health information, and records. All transactions were handled through Good Dog, which added another level of comfort and professionalism to the process. When we picked up our fur baby, she was clean, freshly bathed, and had her nails clipped. It was obvious she had been well cared for. Since bringing her home, she has been an absolute angel. She is healthy, happy, and has adjusted well. Our older female Lab took a little time to get used to her, but now they are playing together, which has been wonderful to see. I would absolutely recommend Àine Amstaffs to anyone looking for a quality AmStaff from a breeder who truly cares about producing healthy, well-tempered puppies. This is not a puppy mill operation. It is clear they care deeply about their dogs and about placing their puppies in the right homes.

    As a family new to finding a pet through a breeder, Courtney was extremely knowledgeable about the process and extremely transparent about her standards and her love for the AmStaff breed. She was immediately willing to hop on the phone so that we could make a personal connection to see what our family was looking for, and what type of home we would be providing for one of her pups. We are so happy and in love with our little guy, and would recommend Courtney and Aine AmStaffs to anyone looking for a small breeder to take great care in making sure her dogs go to loving homes.
