Our Services

In many states (including Illinois) it is illegal to 'sell or give away' a puppy before the age of 8 weeks.

A good breeder will know why puppies should be kept together for at least 8 weeks.

Early training and socialization reduces future behavior problems.

We know where to get many breeds; we usually have nice dogs for sale.

I can refer good breeders of the following breeds: Golden Retrievers, Labradors, Border Collies, Tosa Inu Mastiff, Papillion, German Shepherd, Flat Coat Retrievers, Boxers, Large Munsterlanders, Soft-coated Wheaton Terrier, Havanese, Newfoundlanders, Goldendoodles, and Labradoodles.

We work with a drug dog training company who occasionally has dogs that have dropped out of their drug or bomb detection program. These dogs are nice, socialized, well-mannered, but would make better pets than working dogs.

August 2008 DOGS FOR SALE

SALE PENDING

Border Collie Male Luke, 5 months

$400 - Super sweet. Gentle. Loves everyone. Would make a great therapy dog, companion, and is very smart....but needs attention (he is still a BC)

Lucy (5 months) - on hold

Lucy will dive into your lap for love. She loves people, kids, other dogs and to play. She would make a great therapy dog for a person who has the time to devote to her.

Make a dog decision with your head not your heart.

Research the breed to ensure it fits with lifestyle. Don't get a Border Collie if you are not active. Don't get a Golden Retriever if your don't like vacuuming.

Research the breeder. A good breeder will offer some sort of guarantee.

Meet the parents. Puppies inherit the traits of BOTH parents. This will help you predict future health issues and personality traits.

QUICK TIPS

Don't pick the shy one.

Don't buy littermates "to keep each other company."

Cross sex. If you have a male, get a female and vise versa.
