Puppies
I adhere to Dogs New Zealand Breeders Code of Conduct. All puppies will be pedigree registered with Dogs NZ (aka NZ Kennel Association), be microchipped and have had their 1st vaccination before they move to their new home.
Because my passion is dog sports (obedience and Rally O), breeding for temperament is of paramount importance to me. To aid in producing well rounded, confident pups I follow the Puppy Culture program.
The first 16 weeks is the period in which comprehensive socialisation will have the greatest impact. You can commence/continue socialisation beyond this age but progress will be much slower. Socialisation involves so much more than introducing your puppy to people and dogs. Click here for a socialisation guide and check list.
I also place great importance in ensuring genetic diversity in my breeding programme. My litters will all have a maximum pedigree COI (coefficient of inbreeding) score of 10.
Litter Availability / Breeding Plans
Subject to sufficient confirmed wait list requests we will be proceeding with the below mating combinations.
As a responsible breeder, we will not proceed with breeding without having homes for our puppies. To guarantee a puppy, we recommend you proceed with making a wait list request.
Wait List Request
We will reconfirm your wait list request with you one month prior to mating and raise the deposit invoice of $200 at that time. Final and full payment is when the puppy is 4 weeks of age.
The deposit is is refundable if we cannot supply a puppy to you.
We strongly recommend that you arrange to visit us to meet our dogs and satisfy yourself that you are happy with their temperament.
If you are not yet ready to confirm a wait list request keep an eye on our website and facebook pages to see our breeding plans.
