Dog Breeding
We ethically breed AKC-registered companion dogs including Goldendoodles, Afghan Hounds, and Airedale Terriers. Our puppies come with health certifications, microchipping, and vaccination records. Parents undergo comprehensive genetic testing through Embark and OFA evaluations to ensure healthy bloodlines for family pets.
Pet Grooming
Professional grooming services available by appointment at our home-based facility. With 30+ years of experience since 1987, we provide breed-specific grooming that maintains coat health and hygiene standards. Services include bathing, trimming, and specialized coat maintenance for various breeds.
Puppy Training
Basic housebreaking and obedience training programs for puppies aged 7-12 weeks. Sessions last 4-6 weeks with personalized instruction focusing on socialization, crate training, and fundamental commands. Training helps establish good behavior patterns before puppies transition to new homes.
