Puppies at Juniper Ridge are raised with the newest protocols and information available to breeders. We subscribe to puppy raising curriculums that make our puppies uniquely prepared for life with your family. They're brave, intelligent, well adjusted, and ready to tackle a new world even before going home with you. 

A few items that make our puppies stand above the rest:

• puppies are desensitized to crates early in life making the transition to sleeping in kennels with you easier

• introduced to grooming (dremel, high velocity dryer, clippers, brushing, and baths)

• leash training beginning at 7 weeks 

• house training is well started through litter training

• desensitized to loud noises such as blow dryers, trains, fireworks, airplanes, ATV's, vacuums, etc.

• given age appropriate challenges to overcome in a controlled environment that build confidence, intelligence and curiosity such as teeter totters, wobble boards, barrier challenges, steps, pools, ball pits, uneven ground, tunnels, ramps, and boardwalks

• Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) that desensitizes puppies to a variety of touch and stimulation that promotes the healthy handling of stress throughout life  

• Early Scent Introduction (ESI) because dogs learn so much with that sniffer and by introducing puppies to many scents we get those neurons firing--much like classical music to an infant

• intentionally introduced to a variety of animals such as strange dogs, cats, rats, cows, horses, donkeys, goats, chickens, ducks, geese, and deer

• FREE 30 days of Trupanion pet insurance

• health guarantee

• lifetime breeder support

Our puppies will receive their first vaccination, deworming at regular intervals, and a Veterinary check before going home with you. Puppies are recalled using the "Puppy Call" in various situations and with distractions. In emergency situations it's invaluable to be able to recall your pup immediately to keep them safe. All pups go home with a Welcome Bag of all sorts of goodies to welcome them home! Perhaps most valuable of all is a lifetime of support from us for your Juniper Ridge puppy. We loved them from the beginning and are excited to entrust you with our precious little ones.
