Studs (male) remain in the program a lot longer. Breeding age preferred around 2 years of age And maximum 7yo. However, for many different reasons we may consider taking this parentage line out of our program.

Our puppy mums will come to our home (regular visitations are recommended to make sure she feels comfortable, your vacation times are also a good opportunity for me to bond with her), Once decided breeding will occur she will return to us on two occasions for mating and whelping / raising their puppies, once puppies are fully weaned, we will slowly move mum back to her normal duties in your home or workspace. Once she has completed her breeding obligations (3 litters with all factors taken into consideration) she is released from the program.
