A lot goes on behind the scenes before it comes to the day when you take your new fur baby home.  

My breeding mums are at least 12 months of age before I breed with them and the stud boys used must be 12 months of age and mature before they can reproduce.  

My first priority is the health and wellbeing of our dogs and puppies, therefore our dogs are all DNA and health checked prior to breeding with.  We do this to ensure the mums and dads are compatible to breed with.

The Stud dogs have an annual vet check and vaccination, and are regularly groomed and checked over.  

Our mums are annually vet checked and vaccinated, and have regular vet visits between.  These visits include a "pre whelp vet check" where the mother is vet checked to ensure she is fit to be mated.  She then has a comprehensive vet check when her pups are 6 weeks of age.  Our mums are all regularly groomed and I do an extra 'tidy up' just before and after birth.
