FOOD ~
Please
Note:
Due
to the recent Iams scare...
We
are no longer feeding Iams to our puppies.
We
have switched to Purina Puppy Chow
in
the blue bag as shown below
We will include
feeding instructions
in your puppy packet.
Yes, you can
switch brands ~
but you will need to purchase
a bag of Puppy Chow
to mix with your brand.
Gradually reduce the amount of Puppy
Chow
until you are only feeding your brand.
.
We supplement with Dyne.
Dyne Supplement is a high calorie
liquid supplement.
It contains 50% fat, 20% carbohydrates,
vitamins, and electrolytes.
You will not need the Dyne.
We also suggest
you mix bottled water
with your water,
if you have city water,
until your puppy's system
can adjust to the chemicals.
WORMING ~
Your puppy will be wormed
a minimum of 2 times with Nemex-2
and once with panacur.
A fecal exam will be given
at age 4 weeks and 6 weeks.
Any additional medication needed
will be given at that time.

his/her first inoculation
at the age of 6 weeks.

This crate is also the ideal size
for transporting your puppy home by car.

VISITS ~
We schedule visits to our kennel
for PRE APPROVED buyers only.
Puppies can not be visited
until they receive their first icoculation

Please do not

By doing so,
you could be putting
our puppies at risk.

whelping puppies, training puppies,
assisting a customer, taking a shower,
washing the car, putting away groceries,
on our way to the vet,

breeding a dog,
spending time with Grandma,
taking a much needed nap,
or doing one of the zillion other things
that we do on a daily basis.

and make an appointment.

before the age of six weeks.
Puppies must have had their first shot

PUPPY LEMON LAW
Please familiarize yourself with
the Puppy Lemon Law in your state.
Here in Pennsylvania it only applies
to licensed kennels and pet stores.
If you purchase a puppy
from an unlicensed kennel
and walk out the door
without a written health guarantee ~
You have NO recourse ~ None! ~ Nada!
The Puppy Lemon Law in Pa.
doesn't apply to backyard breeders.
In addition, the Pennsylvania Puppy Lemon
Law
only requires licensed breeders to guarantee
congenital hereditary problems
for thirty days.
In our opinion, this is no protection
for you at all.
Puppy Lemon Laws vary state by state
~
so you may want to do some research.
If you purchase a puppy from an unlicensed
breeder
please ask for a written guarantee.
If you don't get one ~
WALK AWAY.
We will give
you a copy
of the Pa Puppy Lemon Law
in your puppy packet.
Also, it is
important
that our puppy buyers read
the information at the
*Important* link below.
If you still have questions ~
just email us ~ *smile*
