Ava Soaring To Her First AKC Agility "Q"

Why I insist on Puppy Classes for my dogs.

One of the requirements I have of people who take one of my puppies is to attend puppy classes.  The age from 8-16 weeks is a unique window to influence your puppy for the rest of its life.  Lessons learned (bad and good) at this time well be "cooked" into your adult dog.   All of our puppies have unique temperaments (just like people) and this is the time the pup learns to cope in world with its given temperament.

I urge you to download and review Avidog's "97 Ways to Create Great Puppies!"  Its free!

ARBOR's ABRAHAM LINCOLN

Abe was 13 months old when this picture was taken May 2015.  It is his first confirmation point.  I am very proud of this boy.  We are also training in Agility and plan to start competing by 2016.  He is from my "A" Litter.  B litter is planned for Spring 2016.
