Required reading below for puppy parents to be! ~ Answers to some of your questions......
Is a Spaniel the right breed for you?
Our little "SUNRAYS" receive tons of LOVE, HUGS, KISSES & SOCIALIZATION, helping them to "SHINE" as adults! All pups are raised around my four children, tons of nieces and nephews that cant wait to come and visit. It is imperative that we find not only good homes but the best homes for our babies! Homes that can provide one of our pups with a LIFETIME of Love, Guidance and Care! . Our Springers, Clumbers & Spaniel Hybrids are highly intelligent and VERY emotional! They NEED to feel loved! And can sense when that love is non existent. One of our Spaniels Can not and WILL not live up to his or her full potential if love, patience, understanding and formal training is lacking! They NEED to be part of the family!!!
We keep all babies here with our family, safe and sound, for as long as it takes to find responsible loving homes! We hope that in your search for a new puppy you have done much research on the Spaniel breeds and are certain they are a good match for you! They are NOT for everyone! Springer's can be quite active for the first year or two and require much devotion and care! Clumbers are not nearly as active but their personalities are similar, In return for your love & care they will provide you with an unbelievable life time of EVERLASTING LOVE and DEVOTION! We are always available for questions you might have about your puppy and offer our advice for the entire lifetime of your pupster.
How are our pups raised?
All of our pups are whelped in our house. In our puppy Nursery right off of our kitchen.
They are kept in the house for the first essential, impressionable 5 to 6 weeks of life
obtaining much love and constant handling. Both my husband and I and our
children pack them around and love on them every chance we get!
Around 6 to 7 weeks weeks they are slowly introduced to a puppy proofed safe
area outside designated just for them to romp, play and explore..
How do I get a pup ?
If you are interested in adopting a puppy from us please give us a call or send an
email to find out if your puppy is still available. If so you will be asked to place
a $300.00 deposit to hold your pick puppy. Also, Will you be picking up
your puppy or do you need your puppy shipped? If so to which airport?
Shipping if applicable is to be paid 2 weeks prior to your puppy leaving.
If you are needing your puppy shipped, we take care of all the booking arrangements and personally take your pup to the airport our selves to see them off and say our goodbyes. After the puppy has been checked in at the airport we will call you with the booking/tracking number & we would appreciate a call back when you receive your pup at your designated airport..
Waiting List for Upcoming puppies? Deposits?
If you wish to be on our waiting list for an upcoming puppy, please feel free to contact u.s. We do accept a $300.00 deposit for current available pups which DOES apply towards your puppy purchase. Deposits are non refundable so PLEASE make sure you are 100 % ready to add a new little bundle of joy and happiness to your family! Also REMEMBER pups do grow up and will be part of your family for the next 10 to 16 years! We reserve the right to FIRST pick on any and all litters.
Can we visit our Puppy and his/her parents? OF COURSE!
We would LOVE to meet you and your family {our babies potential parents} and give you the opportunity to meet your potential puppy and his/her parents in person! We allow handling of our puppies at 7 to 8 weeks of age after their first puppy shot has had some time to kick in and they are completely covered against kennel cough. No exceptions!!! Our babies are too precious to risk their health in any way! Visiting of the puppies is by appointment only.
What vaccines will my pup have received?
Right off the bat the pups are receiving vital immunities from their mother. By the time you receive your pup she or he will have received all age appropriate vaccines and several prescription wormings. Puppies can not be shipped until 8 weeks of age.
Are your adult dogs vaccinated & wormed? YES our dogs are vaccinated yearly, they receive kennel cough vaccines every 6 months and are wormed every 3 months.
What comes with our puppy?
AKC registration on Springers & Clumbers , 2 year written health replacement guarantee covering ALL herditary defects, shot record, puppy feeding schedule and instructions, & toys..
Do you ship your puppies?
Yes we ship through Delta or Horizon/Alaskan Air out of MSO. We would not even think of shipping our babies if we were not 100 % sure they are treated with extreme care from start to finish.. The puppies ride below in the cargo area, it is heated, cooled and pressurized the same as it is for the passengers above. Puppies truly do very well being shipped since they are so young they most likely will curl up and go to sleep as they don't really know what is going on, verses say an adult dog who knows ALL to well exactly what is going on! We have shipped our pups for several years and have NEVER had anything go wrong! Please realize that any means of transportation can be a stressful time in a puppies life leaving the only family and life it knows! Whether the pup is shipped, or being picked up the pup will be stressed for the first day or two, That is only natural! Please allow for extra time out of your schedule to comfort and care for your new little one!!!Ideally we would prefer you could take a week or at the very least a few days off of work to acclimate your puppy to his/her new surroundings! :)
Shipping ranges from $160.00 to $240.00 which covers airline charge payable COD, there is also a $65.00 charge paid to us prior to shipping to cover the puppy airline approved plastic crate & health certificate from our vet required by the airlines.
Rest Assured!
Our pups are NOT an after thought at the end of a busy day! They are our day! Doted over day and night! First of all we make sure the dam is in tip top condition before being bred, that both parents to the best of our knowledge are healthy and carry no hereditary defects. We are there for every delivery ~usually staying up all night~ {as most females prefer to deliver in the evening till the wee hours of the morning} Assisting if needed or just for moral support! Than for the first 3 week's of puppy's life we barely sleep a wink waking up at every little whimper to check and make sure they are okay. Then they grow a bit and everything is back on track. We normally start supplementing the pups at 4 to 5 weeks with a home made gruel gradually switching to mashed puppy food. As they grow and mature they are looked over like a hawk, played with, socialized, and loved! Any one that has children KNOWS how many friends travel in and out of your house in a day.. Each one having to swoop up the babes and give them hugs, kisses and extra socialization in addition to our own childrens affection! The pups receive excellent vet care and top of the line nutrition.
We NEVER want one of our pups to go to a home were they will not be #1. Please make sure you are 100% ready and willing to make a life long commitment of up to 16 plus years ~your puppy deserves it~ !!!!
