Finnish Spitz Puppies

We would always like to meet prospective puppy owners at our house and discuss all the aspects of owning a Finnish Spitz with you. You can also see close relatives of the dogs we are breeding from. The dogs we are breeding from at the moment have undergone approved eye and knee health tests and we have the certificates available for you to see. We will only breed from dogs that are healthy and of good, breed-typical, temperament. We occasionally have puppies available for suitable homes and keep a waiting list for prospective owners. There are only a few breeders in the USA and litter size is not very big (usually up to 6), so there is likely to be some kind of waiting time for the puppy. We work very hard with the puppies during those very important 7-10 weeks they stay with us and their mother (the first 16 weeks is the most important time in the dog’s life in terms of socialisation, so don’t waste any of that time!). Of course we let the mother take care of things in nature’s own way and we don’t like to interfere, but work with her in looking after the puppies. We spend a lot of time by the whelping box to make sure all of them are fed regularly and put on sufficient weight, and we keep things clean. We start socialising and habituating the puppies from a very early age by handling them on a daily basis, brushing them, and nail clipping. We do our best to get a variety of people (adults and children) here to see them and play with them. When they are slightly older, we show them other dogs from a distance. We introduce them to different noises, smells, surfaces, objects, toys, collar, lead, and give other stimulus in a positive way. We normally gently start the housetraining, but that is something the new owner needs to continue to positively reinforce. This is only the start of socialisation and training for the puppies and after they leave us it is now down to the new owner to carry on the good work we have started. All our puppies are sold subject to a sale contract. They come with a AKC approved "Puppy Pack", worming certificate, full pedigree certificate, diet and training guidelines and have been checked and micro chipped by a Veterinary Surgeon. However, the new owner should as soon as possible visit their own Vet who will start the course of vaccinations, carry out a health check, and offer further advice. Our puppy owners are always welcome to contact us and in fact we would very much like to keep in touch with themBuy Now
