FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What does the deposit and selection process entail?  
We require an initial deposit (non-refundable) to reserve your puppy. The puppy selection order is based on the order that deposits are received. When the litter is born, we will add pictures to the website and once a puppy is selected your name will be added next to their picture. The remaining balance is due at pick-up when the pup is 8 weeks old. We are not shipping puppies at this time, but can meet within a reasonable distance from Omaha, NE.​

What is the total cost of purchasing a puppy?

What is Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) and what are the benefits?

ENS is done for 2 consecutive weeks starting 3 days after the puppies are born. The process consists of 5 simple and exercises - tactile stimulation, lying in the supine position, held with head held up, tilted upside down, and thermal stimulation. This helps prepare pups for their life’s journey. Only 30 seconds a day for 2 weeks and we see a great improvement in their immune systems and stress tolerances. Other benefits include improved heart rate, stronger heart beats, stronger adrenal glands, and greater resistance to disease.

How do you begin to socialize the pups?

Puppy socialization starts with the breeders. First of all, we'd love to meet you! Please feel free to schedule visits to spend time with your new puppy. There are a variety of techniques and experiences we expose to each puppy.
