I can not thank you enough.

On the flip side of my previous post, I want to thank everyone who has been so supportive of us, especially over the past 18 months. From legal issues, life changes, medical issues, loosing our precious Muffin, to us having our entire house rewired, roof replaced, walls built, dry wall replaced, repaired, painted, puppy nursery built, and even now still doing minor remodel projects. You all have been kind, patient and supportive. We even had a Supernova family make it possible to have our Muffin memorialized in a gorgeous commissioned portrait.

Recently we had a supporter make a substantial donation. I was taken aback and hesitant to accept. It was brought to my attention that it is not uncommon for followers and supporters to offer donations to people (influencers, creators, etc) that they follow. This donation was made with a statement saying she knew that there was no way I was making enough to cover what we were putting out in care for our dogs/puppies. I still tear up at the thought that someone noticed our hard work. It is not always easy behind the scenes, it a lot of time, work, missed vacations, and when our dogs retire from breeding they stay here, with us, their family…. forever!

So I want to publicly say THANK YOU! We are so appreciative of your support, from gifts, to donations to your likes, follows, shares and comments. We appreciate you!

If anyone is interested in supporting us, I have made an Amazon wish list with items to support our pack and litters.

Available Puppies & Breeding Rights

Good Morning. I have received several inquiries the past few days about puppies but they fell through because I do not offer breeding rights. Some of these emails were followed up with very harsh unkind words. I have been breeding for over 11 years, and I have never given out breeding rights. With the exception of working with 3 breeder friends. Your threats and harassment will not change that.

I have blogged on this topic before but let me say that breeding is not an easy hobby/business. We breeders have a hard enough time ensuring our puppies end up in responsible forever pet homes who will not rehome, abuse or dump them. I feel the possible outcome with breeders is even more unsure and unstable. In my opinion the rate of rehoming, over breeding, breeding to young, lack of medical care and clean facilities all increase with breeder homes and once the puppies are out of my care it’s impossible to know how they are really being treated.

Not to mention, and more importantly the contract I have with my stud’s breeder that I will not offer his puppies with breeding rights. I honor my contracts, written or verbal.

Please understand it is with care and wanting the best for my puppies that I prefer and will wait for the perfect forever companion home. They are worth it.

Little kicks

I finally felt movement today on both Millie and Maze. They are both due next week. We have some last minute builds in the dog rooms this weekend and then we are done (for now). I can’t wait to show you how great it looks. I’m so proud I may do some lives with the pups. Here is me with Maze helping her get use to her whelping area. This is her first litter so she will be in my room so I can keep eyes on her. All whelping areas have cameras, but I want Maze close.

Meet the Pogues

My son is an Outer Banks fan so we decided that would be a fun litter theme. Reign’s litter was the perfect boy to girl ratio for it. So let me introduce our Pogues.

Left to right: John B, Pope, Sarah, Kiara, JJ. There will be 1 female and 1 male available after picks are made. P4L

From Facebook to the Blog

Hey guys. With so many things going on with the insane but real possibility of social media platforms being banned to crazy bills that target the internet possibility being passed, I decided that I should rely less on social media for my dog program and training. I started to make the switch to my blog and YouTube a few years ago but got lazy. Social media, Facebook specifically just makes things easy. But, I’m feeling less inclined to support Meta these past few weeks. So I’m going to still use my page(s) but I will be trying to divert traffic to locations where there is no risk of pages being taken down or content censored.

Posts will provide the links directly to our blog posts or videos uploaded on YouTube. I hope everyone understands and continues to support us by following the links and or revisiting to our website and YouTube channels. Below are links to everywhere you can find us, just make note that our website and youtube will be the main places to find us.

Internet Trolls Be Gone

The down side to people sharing your facebook page (and website) and attracting more traffic is that it often attracts trolls. I can often spot them coming and honestly have no time for people trying to appear superior and put me in my place. I’m not a newbie.

My dogs are my family, puppy development socialization and training are very important to me. I am a Puppy Culture breeder, Puppy Start Right Instructor, I have taken courses on dog and puppy development, training and behavior, I have an extensive library with books on the topic. I love raising puppies and seeing them find loving companion homes and filling homes with love and joy. I love sharing my passion with my followers. I cherish the relationships I’ve gained through the years and love hearing how loved my pups are and how they have brought joy to families. But let me just say this, my dogs are my life breeding isn’t. I enjoy raising puppies but I do not have to rise puppies. As much as I love it, I’d be content mentoring and instructing others on the importance of early puppy socialization, enrichment and training.

My dogs are companions, pets, family, we train together, we play, we cuddle, we practice enrichment, we walk, and have the ability to bike and scooter when it is cool enough to do so. Which isn’t often due to the extreme heat. I train my puppies and dogs to further my learning, because I find it the responsible thing to do and for mine and my pups enjoyment, not to gain titles. Though that is not out of the question, I am just a busy wife, mom, grandmommy, dog mom and time for titles and or travel is not in the cards at the moment. I put no requirement on my puppy families that my puppies are to be worked, or put through trials. Proper exercise, enrichment and training, yes, but working? Absolutely not.

So to be perfectly clear I will not engage with nor reply to trolls. I am too old for internet bullies, know-it-alls, and folks who like to harm from behind a screen and keyboard. Be kind, or move on.

Update on our pregnant girls

Reign is due first and she definitely has a tummy. I haven’t been able to feel movement yet but in my experience that usually happens closer to next week. She is eating and playing normal and hasn’t shown any sign of discomfort but that will change as her tummy grows these last couple weeks.

Maze is doing great. Her most notable sign of possible pregnancy is being way more demanding of affection and it is a constant battle between her and Millie for my attention. I’m expecting tummy growth to start increasing this week. She is playing well and has a great appetite.

Millie is having a rough go. This pregnancy is mimicking her first pregnancy to a tee. If you remember she really struggled and it was very hard on her physically and us mentally. (you can scroll back to see blog entries on about first pregnancy) While that pregnancy produced 7 healthy and beautiful babies it was a very hard time. With our vets approval we tried a second time and she had a great second pregnancy with little to no complications. After we skipped her previous heat cycle we were hopeful that this pregnancy would be easy for her as well. But it’s not, so because she is struggling this time we will be spaying Millie after the pups go home. Regardless of the outcome. This was an easy decision but hard for our hearts, Millie is an amazing mother and truly loves being a mommy, but pregnancy is too hard on her and not worth the risks. The health and well being of our dogs is always our top priority. We will update as the pregnancy progresses.
