HAVE A QUESTION?
WE'RE AN OPEN BOOK.
Nope! We've spent over 20 years with these bloodlines and one thing we've never been willing to do is constantly restrain our pets to confined areas. Being in a rural area, on a roadway with little-to-no traffic, we've been fortunate enough to have the space within a diverse natural environment for our pets and their puppies to run and play. We only have so many puppies per year, and we do that to ensure our pets live a full life outside of gifting the world with their little ones every so often! Additionally, our pets are our pets, not our "dogs" and we have always been fortunate to be able to provide a happy and healthy daily lifestyle for them!
We prefer to send puppies to homes where the new owners have previous experience with pets, preferably dogs, and have ample space in their home and/or neighborhood for the puppies to play before and after they've grown. If you have no prior pet experience but are willing to learn, we are happy to help you out with a few tips and tricks to get started on the right foot. Raising a puppy is a large but equally rewarding responsibility!
1. Meet Us! (Most Often Used)
If you are in or able to come to the area we would be happy to meet you either at our home or in a convenient location for both of us within two hours of our home, including MCI Airport in Kansas City, and DSM in Des Moines! We always enjoy meeting the new owners in person!
2. Nanny Delivery! (Dependent on Scheduling)
If you're located far enough away, we can utilize our Nanny Delivery service. This service would bring the puppy to you as long as scheduling of all parties permits!
Because we are 2 hrs from the airport, I try to make each trip count as much as possible by taking multiple littermates at a time while striving to accommodate everyone's specified times. Therefore, it is very helpful if you can specify multiple dates you (or whomever will be picking your puppy) would be available.
After setting a date, we will begin the booking process with the airline services. Because of the inaccuracy of long-term weather forecasts, we are only able to book the flight a maximum of three days in advance. After receiving confirmation, we'll call and/or email you with the air-bill, flight number, flight times, and location where the pup is to be picked up. You will just need to go to this location, provide two forms of ID (ie. license and insurance card), and the air-bill number, and they'll bring your puppy directly to you! All we ask is that you confirm you've received your puppy when you do!
We've never had a bad experience with this method, but if you have additional questions please feel free to ask!

All our puppies are started on solid food using NutriSource's and Pro Pac's puppy foods. A good treat for the puppy is ground turkey meat, canned pumpkin, or a splash of turkey broth!
At the early stages in your home, we suggest feeding your puppy once in the morning and once in the evening in order to create a schedule that makes potty training easier for them to pick up on! You can start with 2 cups of feed each time, and depending on the amount they consume either increase or decrease the amount given.
NOTE: If you choose to change the brand of food when your puppy comes home with you, we would suggest taking a few weeks of mixing their old brand with the new brand, 50/50, so their gastrointestinal system has some time to adjust to the new brand!
All puppies come with puppy shots and worming records, AKC limited papers, a one year health guarantee, and vet check.

Yes! Having over two decades of experience with these breeds, we know first hand the importance of knowing exactly the health of new additions to our bloodlines. All of our pets are tested for common genetic issues within their breed and often even OFA tested for common joint issue in certain breeds.
Yes! All of our pets are AKC registered and your new puppy will come, unless otherwise requested, with an AKC Limited Registration. You are welcome to fill the paperwork out and register your puppy with AKC, but by no means is it a requirement!
Yes, some! The pups always have access to an outside area they can venture into as they start to become more ambitious!. By 8 weeks, they'll have the very basics of crate training and will know not to go to the bathroom in the areas they eat/sleep, but may not be able to differentiate the actual outdoors from being in the rest of the house for a while.
Yes! We have been since the beginning and are proud to be in the upper echelon of breeders during every state inspection and registrations renewals!
Yes, of course!
