Tips on buying a puppy

A couple of tips on buying a puppy. There are so many breeds of dogs to choose from and so many breeders of those dogs to choose from.
1) I encourage all buyers to check out a breeders facility or kennels.
2) Some people don't realize all of the different registries there are. In my opinion, AKC is the best registry. 3) Always look at the parents of the puppies.
4) Ask to see the pedigree or lineage of the puppies. You don't want an inbred dog.
5) Take your puppy to the vet as soon as you get it home and have it checked out.
6) Ask about limited and unlimited registration. Limited means that you don't have breeding rights. Unlimited, of course, means that you do have breeding rights.

To tell you a little about my operation. I have four breeding females and one male. This number allows me to still be able to give them the attention, care, and love they need. I have indoor/outdoor kennels which are heated and cooled. These are indoor dogs and need to be kept warm and cool. My dogs get regular baths and their beds are washed at that time. I take them to the groomer twice a year. My dogs are very active and love to run and play. They are let out every day to play, and at that time, their kennels are cleaned. The main reason they are kenneled at all is to keep them safe and protected from the weather and to keep my house from smelling like a kennel! Ha!
My pregnant females get to stay in the house where they get extra pampering. They have a special crate set up in my bedroom where they give birth. The puppies remain in the house until they are around 5 weeks old. They are then moved to the kennels where they learn very quickly how to walk up the ramp to the dogie door to go in and out of their own private little room. This helps them, in a way, start house training themselves. I don't give shots myself. I take my puppies to a great vet in town where they are checked over thoroughly.

I feed only the best food. I've tried several different brands of food and researched others. Blue Buffalo seems to be the best for my dogs. It has only natural ingredients with no corn.

If you have any other question, please feel free to ask. I'm still learning and improving what I do all of the time. :)

Happy buying!

Brighton's puppies

  

Two females and two males left. One little girl found her forever home this past weekend. Congratulations to Julie on her new baby girl!!  The rest of the litter is ready to find a new home also. Please contact me to set up an appointment to meet these sweet babies. Females are $600 and the males are $500. Check around the web with other breeders. My prices are very competitive with other breeders. These puppies will be around 4-5lbs. They will be a very healthy size, great for children.

Lee's Lil Jewel

Meet Jewel! She is my second to youngest female. She has a very sweet and loving disposition which her puppies seem to inherit. She is Brighton's full sister from a different litter. She weighs around 6lbs and is silver and tan in color. Jewel is pregnant with her second litter and she is due the second week of June. Leo is the sire. I'm very excited about this next litter. She had very small puppies last year and I expect the same this time as well!

After a couple of minutes of playing outside, these guys are tired out. They get as close as they can. Can you count how many there are??!

Tiff's Lil Brighton Bug Lee
