We Have 15 ~ Years Experience (as volunteers) For Various Non-Profit Rehabilitation & 501 (c) 3 Rescue Organizations To Help Save the Lives of Animals In Need. Over the years we have worked with dogs that came into the rescue programs with various temperament issues, health issues, training issues, and behavioral issues. We have fostered all ages of dogs from young puppies to senior citizen dogs. We also worked with handi-cap dogs, deaf dogs, blind dogs, dying dog, crippled dogs, extremely frail / sick dogs, dogs with long term health issues, undersocialized dogs, abused dogs, severely neglected dogs, special needs dogs and much more. The rescue groups we volunteered for would save these dogs from various places. Rescue work has been an amazing roller coaster ride of emotions with experiences that we will deeply treasure within our hearts forever. In Fact, Rescue work has become such apart of who we are that we will always remain heavily involved within this significant field.
♦ Believe It or Not,
It Was Our Intense Involvement in Rescue Work Over The Past Decade
that Inspired Us to Become Very High Caliber Breeders.
♦ Quality of Life is Very Importance to Us.
(to us, a "pet" should be looked at as a treasured part of the family)
♦ Health & Proper Diet are Top Priority
( cheap / low quality brand name dog foods might save alittle money here & there
but they usually equal early health problems, dental issues, & can even shorten your pets life!)
♦ Socialization is a Crucial
♦ Intellectual Stimulation Is a Must
♦ Positive Reinforcement Training Makes Good Pets Fantastic
♦ Animals Deserve Respect & Should Be Treated with Such
♦ Animals Are Not Disposable
♦ Please make sure you have the
Time , Patience, Love, Commitment & Money to take care of a new pet.
It breaks our hearts to see so many dogs ending up in bad situations & kill shelters.
