Our puppies are raised on our 5 acres with other dogs, cats and farm animals. We have children ranging from 7 years old to 16 years old and they all play and handle puppies daily. We have a great relationship with an amazing vet who does all our vet checks and vaccinations in house for us. Pups are dewormed on a weekly basis starting at the recommended 3 weeks of age. We love our dogs and all the puppies are part of the family.
