Here's the rhythm of life in our living room from whelp day to go-home day. We share weekly photo updates with everyone on the waitlist.
Birth Day

Round-the-clock nursing. Pups double their birth weight. We handle each one daily for early neurological stimulation — small gentle touches, just like the breeders before us.
See week 1 photos →Eyes Open
Tiny eyes blink open. They start to hear. We introduce gentle household sounds — the dishwasher, soft music, the kids reading.
See week 2 photos →First Steps
Wobbly walking. First teeth come in. Their personalities start to show. Photos go to everyone on the waitlist.
