Puppy Enrichment and Socialization
I do modified puppy culture, lots of interactive and climbing toys, regular interaction with myself and friends that visit the pups.
The pups get exposure to dog desensitization sounds and music, TV, etc. I utilize the following enrichment methods: Sound Stimulation, Household Desensitization, Toys, e.g. ball, tunnels, tugs, etc.
Health
Before your pup goes home they visit our vet for a well puppy exam and microchip. They are vaccinated for Distemper and Parvo at 7 weeks and the pups are wormed at 2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks.
Health Guarantee
CPBC puppies have a 2 year health guarantee. This guarantee covers genetic or congenital conditions.
Registration
Your pup will come with AKC registration. The registration will be "limited" which means non-breeding. The pups are sold with a non-breeding contract and should be spayed or neutered between 12-24 months old. I co-own until the pup is spayed or neutered. Once that's done I will sign off as co-owner.
Some pups may be dual registered with the ABCA and AKC. It will depend on the registration of the Sire and Dam.

Can I Reserve a Puppy?Yes once you have completed our Prospective Puppy Owner Questionnaire and been approved. We require a $300.00 non-refundable deposit once the puppies have been confirmed via ultrasound. However, if by 4 weeks of age I don’t think that I have a puppy that will suit you or you have a life event that makes getting a pup at this time not practical, then I will refund the deposit or move your deposit to a future litter. Payment-in-full is required at pick up or 3 days before your pup is shipped or flys to you with a Puppy Nanny. The puppy price is $2000.00.
