One of the main jobs we have as Puppy Raisers is to get the puppies comfortable in all types of situations. It’s especially fun at this age when a lot of the places are “firsts”. Just like with a baby, we like to mark these special events in the lives of the puppies...

As soon as the Star Wars litter was born, we knew we wanted to raise one of those sweet puppies! The two months until they were ready to go to Puppy Raisers couldn’t go by fast enough! Fortunately, we were able to spend some time with the whole litter at six and...
