After Going Home

Puppies should stay close to home for the first few weeks. Check with your veterinarian regarding the best age for your puppy’s interactions with other dogs and dog friendly places. Vets have different opinions on timing and shots needed to keep your puppy safe.

 

Spay/Neutering

We agree with most veterinarians in the United States that do not favor early “desexing” but rather suggest that the animal be spayed or neutered shortly before reaching puberty, normally at about 6 months of age. Our puppies are sold intact.
