Let me help you raise your puppies

        

Having bred dogs for over 40 years I have decided to pass along my knowledge to new dog owners. I started with one golden and a cairn terrier. After competing in obedience I discovered the wonders of the dog show world. After obtaining a labrador and a golden I bred both breeds for many generations. I produced champions on US, Canada and South America, my dogs also produced obedience dogs as well as drug detection and service dogs in multiple venues; Leader dogs for the blind, Canine Companions for Independance and several that were trained as service dogs by their owners. I am very proud of my dogs and I hope the information here can help you with your new friend.

 

DOG CRATES:

A crate is a portable "kennel" that is used to train a young puppy or safely transport your dog in a plane or car. It can also be used as a "home" for your dog when you travel, making your dog a welcome visitor in a friend's home or motel.

 A crate can be plastic or metal. The plastic crate is used a lot for air travel and is enclosed except for the door and a small grate on each side. The metal crates are more open, and some are made to fold down which makes them very easy to transport.

DOG TOYS:

Toys should be age and size appropriate for your dog. Large dogs should have hard to destroy items. My dogs can not have toys with squeekies inside, they just tear them up. There should not be any loose items on the toys like plastic eyes or noses that can be swallowed. I find that hard chews can really help control them chewing on improper items.

Some of my dog's favorite chewing items are below; click links to view:
