Q. & A. with Shelbie

What makes your program special?
We focus on socialization and desensitization very early on. Our puppies are handled daily from the time of birth to when they go to their new homes. They will have already experienced loud noises like vacuuming, children running around etc. They will be socialized to farm animals, cats, and other dogs by the time they go to their new home. We introduce crate and potty training.
What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies have stock coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include sable and black and red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
