Why Choose a Mustard Seed Ranch Puppy?
What a great question! We know there are so many dogs, puppies, and breeders to choose from. Now, thanks to the internet you don’t even have to look in your home state. Just as there is a puppy for everyone, I believe there is a breeder for everyone. A breeder that has the same or similar opinions and philosophies that you do. Here are some of the things I believe set us apart from others…
HEALTH TESTING! It always starts at the beginning. Healthy pups come from healthy parents. Our dogs are first and foremost health tested. Unfortunately Golden Retrievers are plagued with many inherited diseases and these can be passed to your doodle. “Hybrid Vigor” does not prevent them. If you are buying a pup whose parents are not tested or only one parent (and it’s usually the poodle because they have a better chance of passing!) then you are taking a big risk. We continue our commitment to health by feeding our dogs some of the best foods available. Our dogs are on year round heartworm and parasite control. Parasites rob their hosts of much needed nutrition. We work very closely with our veterinarian to ensure all our parents are healthy. There is a link to our vet Below-Feel free to contact them for a referrence! We test our dogs for Hip Dysplasia, Heart disease, eye diseases, and much more. But don’t take our word on it…Ask for proof!! We will gladly email you copies of all their results. (And you SHOULD ask for proof from any breeder!)
All our pups are born in our house and we attend the birth. Each puppy is identified uniquely when born and we monitor them all to make sure each pup nurses and has access to that much needed colostrums (there is a limited supply and in a large litter born over several hours, it could be gone and the last pups not receive the maternal antibodies that they need to ward off disease.)
Pups are raised IN OUR HOUSE. Right smack in the middle…I personally could not give my pups the attention they need and deserve if they were out in a kennel. Pups are raised around kids–screaming kids, vacuums, dishwasher, the theme song to Sponge Bob Squarepants, all the things we expect them to encounter at your home. They are not raised with only the sounds of barking dogs. Pups are held and played with daily. The kids take them to their rooms, on their beds, we all sit and watch TV with pups, they have even been known to sit at Christmas Dinner with us. It takes a lot of extra time to raise pups in doors-it disrupts our whole life and alters the dynamics of our family…but we feel it is SO important!!
We keep records of each pup as they grow and get to know their personalities. We have Picture Day once a week and we email you a new picture. You don’t have to call or email and beg for new pictures–we promise a new one every week. Also after about the 4th or 5th week we send short video clips to you…why should we get all the fun of watching your pup grow?
Building a relationship...we work hard to stay in contact with our owners. If we dont, how would we know the health and temperments of the pups we are producing? We send questionaires, we hold contests, we send emails, all in an effort to keep the lines of communication open, to get feedback and to offer support...support for a lifetime!
