Food: We ask you to feed a no corn, no wheat, no soy high quality, scientifically formulated, balanced puppy food for the first year, such as Purina Pro Plan. Avoid grain free, and avoid vegetarian diets. We currently feed our poodle puppies Purina Pro Plan Puppy No Corn, Wheat, or Soy. Typical choices are: salmon, turkey, lamb.... The cost is a bit more, but normally the dog does not require as much and will be healthier in the long run. After one year of age, adjust the protein level of the well balanced food to the level of activity of the dog. We feed Purina Pro Plan Sport Salmon and Rice , No Corn, No Wheat, No Soy to all of our adult dogs.

Puppies get dewormed every two weeks until 8 weeks, then we require new owners to follow up with deworming with each set of new shots the puppy gets, and more often if they are exposed to stuff, use your good discretion.
As a responsible new owner please make sure you have a secure fenced yard or kennel to run your dog, do not let them out unsupervised.
Please spay your female puppy by one year of age.
Wait to neuter your male puppy until around 2 years.

- If you notice your dog becoming overweight it is your responsibility to cut the food a little and increase activity... just like children they rely on you to structure their lives, plenty of love (food is not always love)... time spent with them is the greatest gift of love you can give them,
- A regular feeding/potty schedule and time by themselves in a safe environment is important as well, such as crate training. We use praise when our dogs go potty, “Good boy, Good girl” and pet / praise them.
- Set boundaries early on.
- Discourage them from nipping, jumping and tearing things up right from the start. Just like a child, if you wait too late to discipline you WILL have a troubled dog on your hands.
- Limit the "treats", a few pieces of their own food is a great reward.
- Please avoid rawhide treats/bully sticks (pieces of raw hide can be swallowed and possibly cause a bowel blockage), and brittle cooked bones where small ends/pieces can break off and be swallowed. Be vigilant with soft toys (as they can tear them apart and swallow stuffing causing a blockage). We recommend Nylabone for strong chewers, or hard Kong toys (under supervision). Jolly ball hard plastic with holes and a ball in the middle is a great toy. They also do well with rope toys.
- Please take great care in puppy proofing… very similar to baby proofing your house. Check your floors constantly for dropped medications and small things that a puppy might get ahold of and swallow. Keep electrical cords out of range. Keep sugar free products with xylitol out of reach. Be careful with socks and shoes… a puppy can easily swallow a sock… and other small items.
- We try to not let our dogs jump down from the truck bed or from high places, this is hard on their developing joints... you will want to help ease them down... or if your dog is elderly, you will want to help them down as well to preserve their mobility.
- Normal puppy play is fine and short 10 -20 minute walks, but no running with them until cleared by vet and they are developmentally able to handle it, (think of making a small child run distances for fitness before they are developed enough in their muscles and bones, you wouldn’t normally do it.) This is typically after one year of age for your pup.
- When working and training your dog, please keep in mind where they are in their mental and physical development.... start with the simple basics, basic obedience. It is super important to work on basics and developing a relationship and respect with you in order to set you both up for success later.
By signing this contract, both parties agree to the above terms and conditions.
