The Puppies









Experience
Our background in healthcare fuels our commitment to each puppy's well-being. We prioritize comprehensive prenatal care and nutrition.
Puppy Development
Starting at just three days old, our puppies begin a curriculum that includes daily handling and gentle growth tracking. We raise them to understand that the world is safe.
Life-Saving Recall Training
We introduce life-saving recall cues like “puppy puppy puppy” and a confident “Yes!” from the trusted Badass Breeder puppy curriculum.

She got groomed 3 weeks ago and the groomer said she behaved. All these things have so much to do with how you raised these pups. Thank you.
"Rose is wonderful. Smart and very assured."

We think sweet Eli is so extra sweet and wonderful because of the extra love and attention he got from your family.
Thank you for raising great puppies!
