             We currently do not have any puppies available.
           Pictured below are pups from our April litter before they went to their new homes.

 We "may" have a litter of puppies this spring or early summer.

Ask yourself.....do I want a boy or a girl?  Please consider the following:

For years people have believed that females make the best family pets.   This is basically not the case.  This is based on experiences from myself as well as other breeders who have been raising and living with dogs for many years.
First of all, any dog who lives as a family pet should be altered.
INTACT dogs have other priorities than just being a family companion.  The girls will come in season, usually twice a year, which is not only messy and bothersome, but you will have every dog in your neighborhood trying to get into your yard.  The boys will, of course, be aware of any girl in your neighborhood that is in season, and will do their utmost best to get to her.  They will want to leave their scent everywhere, to "mark" their territory.  The girls will also "mark" when they are in season to attract males.  There is one thing on their minds........reproduce.

Males
In general, males are more affectionate.  They get closer to their human family members.  They are also more accepting of other pets in the household.  They take to children more readily.  They are more focused on their owners, want to please, are usually more motivated by food, and therefore are more easily trained.
If males are neutered at around 7 months of age, they will not have the desire nor need to  mark.  They will be just as easy to housebreak as a female.  You could not ask for a more loyal, affectionate, loving pet than a male who was neutered at that age.  A neutered male just wants to please his owner and get his love and affection.

Females
Females tend to be more independent.  They usually want to be the boss, and rule the roost.  They tend to be more territorial and more possessive of things like toys, chews, etc.  I have multiple dogs, of both sexes, and every "scrap"  I have had to break up between dogs has been between 2 girls.  While spaying prevents them from coming into season, they still are more independent and still not as "devoted" to their owners as a neutered male. 
Prices for males are most often less than females because so many people want a female not realizing that males are so sweet and lovable.  It has been ingrained in our heads for years that we should all want a female as a pet.  Nothing could be further from the truth.  If I could only have one dog as a family pet, my first choice would be a neutered male.    So, if you are considering adding a new canine member to your family, please give the boys a consideration.  They really do deserve it.
