We have plans for end of 2022 beginning of 2023
Please send a puppy inquiry to stay up to date on our plans and so we may figure out if one of our puppies will fit your family. If you don't receive a reply within the month, please resend an email. Sometimes our emails don't come through the way we hope they would.
