When we breed it is done after careful consideration of the
health, temperament, & conformation of the sire & dam of each
litter.
Mothers-to-be receive routine veterinary checkups and careful
monitoring throughout the pregnancy and when they do go into
labor I do not leave their side no matter what time of the day or
night it is.
Our puppies are handled from the moment they enter the world
and are much loved members of our family, they are handled
multiple times throughout the day and are very well socialized. In
addition to the usual household noises we also expose our
puppies to other noises IE: fireworks, construction equipment,
doorbells, etc via a socialization CD. They also begin crate
training, walking on a leash, some basic manners and riding in a
car.
Pet puppies do not leave us until after 9 weeks of age, all
puppies going to pet homes are spayed/neutered prior to
leaving. Breeding puppies are sold on co-ownership until after
they have received a CHIC number, they do not leave us until
after 4 months of age.
We aim to breed the best Beagles we can, not just to produce
puppies, but to better our breeding program and the breed as a
whole. Our goal with each breeding is to produce a puppy that is
as good or better than the parents, not just a puppy with one
outstanding trait, but with overall balance; no faults, excellent
temperament, and picture perfect health.
We simply will not sacrifice health or temperament for
conformation. There is no excuse for that here, a dog or bitch
who does not produce healthy, well tempered puppies will not
remain in our breeding program. We do not breed for the next
Best In Show Winner; we breed for overall balance in health,
temperament, & conformation. With that said, we would also like
to say that we believe there is no such thing as a perfect dog;
however it should be every breeder's goal to produce that
perfect dog! We believe you can see our dedication in the quality
of our puppies!
Before each puppy leaves us, it has been well cared for,
socialized, and loved. The puppy does not go to it's new owner
as a trained, well-mannered, finished product! It is up to you to
complete the job we have started. You are responsible for the
further development of the puppy's personality through
structured discipline, training, guidance, & love.
We are devoted to every dog we produce for their ENTIRE lives.
If for any reason after you acquire a dog from us, you cannot
keep it - we will take it back no matter what the reason is! We
never want to see or hear of a dog we produced ending up in a
shelter, rescue or unwanted as they are always welcome back
here!
