All of our parent dogs are raised in our home where they live full-time.  We do not currently utilize any guardian homes , but may in the future as our program goes. Our dogs are permanent members of our family and each receive 1/2 a vote at family meetings.  We love and adore them. 

Each parent undergoes Embark genetic testing to determine health, coat and color traits.  They also receive OFA and/or PennHip certifications of fair or higher for all tests related to their breed and a health evaluation from a licensed veterinarian to determine their fitness for whelping a litter of puppies.
