Q. & A. with Nicole
What makes your program special?
We raise are puppies starting with employing early neurological stimulation from the first week which is shown to improve cardio vascular performance, make them more stress tolerant and improve resistance to diseases. From week 3 we start regularly exposing them to new sights, sounds and textures to help avoid fear and stress in the outside world and develop confident happy pups. Our puppies are also handled daily from the time they arrive to when they go to their new homes to encourage them to be people and kid friendly.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Bernese Mountain Dog puppies are black rust and white. Golden Retriever puppies include dark golden, golden, and light golden. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

"Ben" came straight from his breeder a happy and healthy pup. He has been a curious and loving pup who is eager to learn! He gets along great and is learning from big bro "Cody" (10 yr old Golden). At 25 pounds already....he's growing like a weed!
