Puppy Culture is at the heart of our breeding program, along with other supplemental resources.  Here's an intro to the Puppy Culture program.  And if you're interested in why we chose Puppy Culture, visit our blog post here.  From the moment the puppies are born they are neurologically stimulated and enrichment exercises are carefully chosen to create emotionally stable, mentally and physically strong, biddable puppies. They will be well socialized and ready for a variety of home, work, and service placements. Around 3 weeks of age we begin to introduce new objects, change the environment, introduce people (strangers, elderly, kids) and other dogs (puppy & adult) to expose the puppy to as many new experiences as possible!  Here is the list! Outdoors (when weather permits), structures, climbing, touch desensitization, toys, grooming desensitization, household desensitization, socialized with other animal (farm animals, cats, dogs), manding, puppy temperament evaluation, surface and tactile stimulation, initial house training, scent introduction, and noise desensitization.
