F.A.Q.
1. Is this puppy available? ....check the list of puppies posted. Puppies are all available unless there is a posted
sign "on hold, or sold"  @ top right corner of  the puppys ad description.  When you see  "on hold"  that means the sale of this puppy is pending per the process of paperwork, and deposit being mailed. Also, a post of "Sold" means that the we recieved paperwork and deposit for that puppy and therefore puppy is sold @ this point.

2. How do i buy a puppy? ....go to the "purchase puppy" link under "Support Links" @ the top right corner of the puppy Breed for sale  page. This will walk you through the whole process. Basically, what it will tell you is to call us when your ready to purchase a specific puppy. So, we can discuss the pet screening questions, answer all of your questions, and confirm this is the right puppy for you. Then the paperwork, deposit needs to be mailed to us. Unless your local, we'll
then make a appointment @ your earliest convenience for you and your new puppy. 
  
3. Can you send me more pictures? Yes, but not on a weekly basis. we normally take the puppies pic @ 6wks. of age/ If we have time  we do newborns pics but those are optional.  Upon request we can do 8 wk. pics. We try to keep pics current fitting the puppies actual look.

4. Is Shipping Safe? ....In our opinion via Delta Airlines it is. We've been shipping for 20 yrs. now  with Northwest who's been purchased by Delta. But, the shipping is still done as northwest fashion.  We never lost a puppy yet. Or even close. We cannot speak of other airlines where things went wrong. We stick with what works. Details on the the Shipping page of what exactly happens when puppy is shipped. 

5. Are the puppies home raised? Yes. they are born in the home w/ us in my living or bedroom. Later, we bring litters into the Nursery where they are safe, warm, and better situated for cleaning and preparing their meals.  Other breeders we deal with have nursies outside of their homes mostly. But, are always present for birth in their Nursery.  Their Nurseries are fully stress free and have: heat, raft free, a/c, clean and safe pen approx. 8' or more, food down 24/7 of dry kibble and freshly made warm cooked meal mush daily. consisting of: human grade liver, egg, potatoe, beets, vitamins/minerals...given 1x day. Mom & Puppies.  Then the puppies are moved here to my Nursery or close by me just outside my bedroom door.  They are touched, talked too, played with, enjoy their yummy foods > besides moist & dry kibble, they romp about interacting w/ other puppies, finish up newspaper training, while watching their flat screen T.V. 
  Note: We do work w/ a few other reputable breeders, who have their own Nursery set up.

6. What determine's price?  
  • First pick of litter is always the highest. As this is the best in litter.
  • Notorized "Document of Authenticity of the Breed"  such as Morkie, or Shorkie. And, Registrations for dogs.  
  • Our Time is Precious. We shutter to think of how many hrs. we spend in caring for Sires/dams/puppies from birth.
         24/7.  Rain or shine.  Despite special gatherings, such as weddings, funerals, vacations....
  • Expense's: Advertizing, Kennel License, New Law Expense's, Supplies & material Costs for safe-stress friendly facility: indoor & outdoor, and complete office.  Along with Vet bills for spay, neuter, c section, rabies, requested tests... New tooth air brush and meds for teeth cleaning. Priced 1,000. up   Chew toys for teeth, *Vet teeth cleaning is very, very costly. And, not the  safest way to keep dogs teeth clean. So, we feed human grade fresh meats, butcher bones,  vegetable's, and costly vitamins/herbs.
  • Any unique rare exotic colors.
  • Any teacups, pocket, minnie puppys due to the extra considerable time & expense we put into raising them. As
          most work is done in the first few to several months of their life. To get them off to a good start.
  • Gender or Sex of puppy can determines price as there are far less females in litters born then males.  So, females can be more.
  • Developed Quality Breeding Program.  We have proven sires & dams as our foundation breeding stock that have taken us  several  years to develope  into a sound clean proven line.  We don't interbreed, so we need to "buy" outside  lines to maintain a higher quality.  And, i have to tell you, after all this > we dont buy junk. You might notice the quality of our puppies.
7. Are Price's Negotiable?  No, sorry. The economy has been hard on us w/ raising Quality dogs.  It cost alot more
         to raise them in 2010 then any year prior. We have lowered our price's, run sales, and offer more via heartwormer... 

8. Are the local neighborhood puppies just as good for lower price?  here's what you need to know:              Some litters are bred for sheer profit.  And, sellers do not claim this on their tax's. 
  • Some do not offer vaccine's or wormers.
  • They can sell a cheaper puppy because they don't have the expense's Reputable Breeders have.
  • They are more convenient in location for you, but what does that have to do w/ the Quality of the puppy?
  • They give "No" or little Health Guarantee.  And "No" Temperament Guarantee. Buyers must realize the backyard breeders in general, do not know what their doing in regards to breeding. Such as breeding a dog that is ill tempered. Case in point, One party went to buy a purebred yorkie. While there at the sellers home, the dog, bit the potential buyer twice.  The buyer was doing nothing to provoke this.  The owner  says,  oh thats just a nibble she does to people.  The potential buyers hand was bleeding and scratched  from her nails.  The dog was a cheaper
         price.  To make matters worse, another potential buyer could buy this dog and breed her. Her offspring can have
         agressive traits.  Then people blame the Yorkies are "ankle biters" and "yappy  little hyper dogs." 
             To sum it up, The cheap cost for most people is too tempting.  But, "you get what you pay for" .  The cheap price          may not be such a bargain in the long run when one may incure future unnecessary bills. Such as, training with                     behavior issue's, possible law suits, harm to family.              

9. Is there any difference between male female?   In most case's yes. We have found over several yrs. time,
      and after asking two vets, a few dog trainers, alot of our customers, and dog owners of both genders. 
     The far majority prefer the nuetered male as opposed to the spayed female, hands down. Yes, the boys have it here!           One noticable reason for this  is that the fixed male "mature's gracefully". That male is a "happy camper"  well into his          senior yrs. Whereas  the fixed female, ages with more difficulty in jealousy, clingy, and less tolerance for childrend.
     Not all female are like this. Same with males, but, the majority have this norm.

10. How many breeds do we breed? Three: maltipoo's, morkies, & shorkies. we have one mal shi puppy left. Then            we will no longer be offering this breed.

11. What age can Puppy go into new home? 8 wks. and older. The Tcups need to stay longer. And,
      pending on where the puppy is going. Is the new home have a person experienced with Tcups and know of their                 care? 

12. What is your vaccine & med. schedule? We give 2-3 vaccines which are Neopar and a Combination such as
     Galaxy DA2Ppv-or same ingredience by different companies.  Several wormings with Pyrantel and Valbenzine is
     started. Heartwormer-Ivomec started @ 8ws.

13. How many litters do you have a year?  We average approx. 15 litters. The few other Reputable Breeders we              work with are about the same.

14. How often do you breed the Mother? Normally till 5 yrs. of age. Unless we decide she should be spayed.
      Some Dams do not take to motherhood and are not nuturing or interested in their puppies.
        Some have a difficult time in whelp (labor)...  we place our retired Dams on the page: "Adults for sale"
             These girls are very adoptable and find home's
      easy.  All the work is done w/ rabies, socializing, care...they adapt easy to housebreaking as they go outside here
      with indoor outdoor doggie doors.  Sold on a Spay requirement.   Other Reputable Breeders we work with breed a yr.         longer and find loving homes for their dogs as well. At no time, is a dog put down if not bred.

15. What type of dog food do we feed? we do alot of fresh ground human grade turkey, beer, or chicken, liver,                 eggs, vegetables, cheese, romain salade's, chicken soup, carrots/apples, baby rice cereal....dry kibble mix of Iams,                 science  diet, and pedigree. Other Reputable Breeders we work with have a high quality diet as well.

16.  Do you have reference's? Yes, please refer to "Reference's" page at top right naviagtion menu.

17. What Guarantee's do you offer? 1 Year Health and Temperament Guarantee. Please refer to Sales contract.

18. Do you sell your puppies on a spay / neuter contract? Yes, it is required. Unless it is agreed upon by us and          new owners. The cost of the puppy reflects this position.
