Q. & A. with Addison
Why did you start breeding?
I purchased my first female with a tentative interest in breeding. Little did I know how much she would teach me and how much I would fall in love with this breed. I want to share and promote that love with anyone who is interested.What makes your program special?
Our dogs are at least CHIC health tested and live at home with us! They are painstakingly chosen for their pedigree, temperament, and health. We will never have more than three in our home; that way they get all the love and attention they deserve. We love our puppies and strive to place each one in an enriching and loving home!What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are mahogany. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Litter and program updates
Addison S.
Litter update on 07 Aug. •…It’s been busy getting these guys ready for their new homes! Here is a complete go home kit because the first puppy is leaving for their new home in the morning! It’s go time! There is a binder with all paperwork and information needed for your new family member, some fun toys, Harry Potter themed blanket and stuffies, and some puppy food that they have been on. I can’t wait for you guys all to meet your new friend!
Pippin and Maeve's litter

Program update on 28 July •…Puppies vet appointment went swimmingly! Hermione is still being monitored, she has another appointment next week but the Doctor is pretty sure her heart murmur is healing up, which is fan-freaking-tastic! Everyone else is healthy as a horse and doing well! They got their first parvo combo, first dose of fenbedazole dewormer, and microchips as well as a thorough examination. The puppies where super good and well behaved. They slept for the entire hour and a half for the appointment without a peep and travelled like pros! Only one accident on the drive home, which is a win when traveling with 14 puppies!

Program update on 25 July •…A few things going on around here! Puppies are officially 6 weeks today! Two more weeks until they start going to new homes! I can’t believe time has flown so fast. They have their vet exams this Monday. They will be getting fully checked with shots, deworming and a microchip. They have been in the indoor/outdoor run 24/7 for the past 2 weeks and are doing great. It took them a few days but they don’t have accidents in the indoor part anymore. They go outside. I have found the indoor/outdoor access makes it easier for potty training when they go to their new homes. Puppies are smart and learn fast and giving them a head start like this only makes it easier for you guys! We have friends visiting from Germany who absolutely love the puppies, so they have been getting lots of love and attention. 🥰 So I had to share some cute play time. We did updated pictures yesterday and I am working on individual personality updates now! So keep an eye out for those on puppy profiles. As always, please reach out if you have any questions and I am happy to help!

Program update on 14 July •…If you are wondering what this litter of puppies will look like grown up, here’s an example of a full sibling from a previous litter. “Murphy” at 11 months old. 🔥 What a looker!
Addison S.
Program update on 11 July •…Puppies unleashed! The puppies have started sound exposure therapy. I play loud noises that imitate scary sounds they will be exposed to as they grow up. Such as gunshots and fireworks. They are doing very well with it! They usually startle a little bit at first which is normal and then settle right down to take a nap. Such smart puppies! ❤️
Addison S.
Program update on 08 July •…Mama Maeve and Hermione ❤️ Puppies will be getting updated individual photos this evening so keep an eye out for those. I just started giving them puppy mash in the morning today. It’s puppy food soaked in warm milk. It went over very well and I will slowly start increasing quantity and frequency to get them used to it over the next couple of weeks. I am hoping to have them mostly weaned at 6 weeks old. Maeve is having a hard time keeping up feeding 14 of them so I started puppy mash early. We will also start early stages of kennel training tomorrow. I start by leaving the kennel in their pen and whelping box for a few days with food and treats in it with the door open so they learn to go in and out and associate it positively.
Addison S.
Program update on 03 July •Dobby sure loves belly scratches! 🥰 Sweet, sweet puppies. I could sit and play with them all day. 🐾
Addison S.
Program update on 02 July •…Big sister Mim sure loves her younger siblings. ❤️ These dogs are so sweet, compassionate and careful at only 10 months old. This is why they make such fantastic family dogs.
Addison S.
Program update on 01 July •This is my favorite stage! The roly poly playing is adorable! ❤️
Addison S.
Program update on 30 June •Everyone got updated individual photos today! Their eyes are most of the way open now. They are doing fantastic and have been content puppies. I have started taking them outside to explore now that they can see a little bit and they love it!
