🐾 Puppies (1 Year & Under)

Our puppies are exactly what you would expect at this age,  playful, curious, full of energy, and still learning everything about the world around them. Young puppies, they are babies.. They are in the early stages of development and have not yet formed habits, manners, or boundaries.

Puppies require time, structure, patience, and consistency. Things like jumping, nipping, chewing, accidents in the home, and high energy are all completely normal at this stage. It is the responsibility of the adopter to guide them, teach appropriate behavior, and provide the training and structure they need to grow into well-mannered adult dogs.

Please understand that puppies are not “ready-made” dogs. They do not come trained, and they require daily time, effort, and commitment. If you are not prepared for the work that comes with raising a puppy, we strongly encourage you to consider one of our older dogs instead.

We also follow a mandatory decompression period for all dogs, including puppies. This allows them to adjust properly to their new environment without added stress or pressure. Giving them time to settle, observe, and build trust is key to a successful transition.

Our goal is to set both the puppy and the adopter up for long-term success. When given proper guidance, patience, and structure, puppies grow into incredible lifelong companions.
