One of the most important effects a breeder has on their puppies, beyond genetics, pedigrees, and nutrition is the way they bring them up.  Dogs are products of both nature and nuture. The experiences puppies have between 1 to 16 weeks shape their personality for life. Positive socialization makes for happy, bombproof dogs that are adaptable and easy to live with.  My goal is to give puppies as much preparation for their lives as I can in the short 7-8 weeks I have them.
My socialization process includes:

• Newborn socialization with Biosensor techniques, a process developed by vets and the military to produce the "ultimate" canine.
• Born in my bedroom, they recieve lots of people bonding with folks of all ages.
• Pups live and interact with my dogs, other dogs, as well as  cats.
• The 7's: 7 types of floor, 7 new challenges, 7 types of food dishes,  7 different locations, 7 different play objects, 7 different people
• Loud sounds, such as firecrackers and vacuums
• Bathing, shaving, and standing on the grooming table
• Pet DVD's by their play area with animal noises, sights and sounds
• Introduced to houstraining
• Water (seasonal only)
• Started with lead training
• Bird wings/Retrieving
• Car rides
