---------------Kumba and
Ditto have now produced four litters of beautiful, well-adjusted, playful, and content puppies. They usually have
one or two tall coton puppies in each litter. Kumba is pregnant and we are expecting her puppies to arrive the very
end of January. They will be ready for their forever homes in mid April. If you would like to reserve a puppy,
and are looking for a wonderful, companion dog, please contact us.

At 4 weeks, we start
to grass train our puppies. We make it a priority to take them outside to potty every hour or so. If our
new puppy owners areable to keep up this routine (lengthening the time inbetween taking the puppy outside) our puppies have
very few accidents in the house. At five weeks their teeth start to come in and they begin to transition from
nursing to soft food. Beginning at about 6 weeks, our puppies receive basic obedience training several times a day.
When they are around 7 weeks, we take them for walks with a leash and without a leash. On and off the leash they are
exposed to" stop, sit, and stay". We also work with the "come" command. We socialize
our puppies by taking them out with us as much as possible. They love to play at parks with other children and adults.
They enjoy visiting the school I teach at (and my students adore seeing the puppies) and stores that allow pets.
We expose them to the vacuum, blender, washer, dryer, dishwasher, doorbell, and other loud noises. All of
the puppies in our previous four litters, were extremely happy, and well-adjusted puppies. Our
two children, 8 and 6 years old, are very much involved in raising the puppies, so all of our puppies have
been great with children.
