This is the place to find a healthy and happy puppy! Our puppies are family raised and are incredibly good with kids! All of the breeds we offer are non shedding, hypoallergenic and not yippy! That's my favorite part!
We are holistic dog breeders. This also means they are naturally reared. Many vets feel that by raising puppies in this manner, holistically, that they will be cancer and disease free for their life. They will also have a very long life. Please make sure you read through my website so you can learn about this.
We have healthy parents and healthy grandparents. This equals healthy puppies!!
Thank you for visiting our site and please let us know if we can help you with anything. Maryjo
We breed for ~~Health~~Personality~~Temperament~~Intelligence~~ We have healthy parents with healthy DNA's, this is passed on to our puppies. Did you know immunizations alter the DNA? This is a huge statement but also a scientific fact! Make sure you check out my Immunizations Page!

Look at the puppies on my Buttercup Page! These puppies are so sweet, I love when we have puppies!!! We are always extra busy in the springtime with puppies!
I will update pictures every week, so check back!! Below are pictures of a few of the puppies we have available! Just click on their picture to go right to their page! Emily (my daughter) had a litter of puppies!! Take a look, mama's first litter, and oh my gosh they are so pretty!!!
Please check the time difference before you call, I got a call at 3:00 a.m while I was sleeping the other night! It was a call from CA and while there is a 3 hour time difference, this means that person called me at midnight, their time. What kind of a person does this? * * * My puppies are raised holistically, I do not believe in using antibiotics, immunizations or drugs when raising my puppies. Yes, most breeders have your puppy on antibiotics as a precaution, incase they get sick. Antibiotics are a drug. They give one kind of antibiotic in the morning and a different kind of antibiotic in the evening. These are sold as antibiotics for cattle and can be bought without a prescription. They come in gallon size. No thanks! Make sure you read my Antibiotics Page.
I think if you start them off with a strong immune system and keep it that way, then you do not need to raise them with unhealthy precautions. This takes up much more of my time to raise them this way and costs me a lot more money but to me it is worth it. I have many who come back to get 2 and 3 puppies from me. They are healthy, happy and wonderful. * * * What do you get when you buy a puppy from me? ANY help you need and lifetime support! A puppy with a 5 year health guarantee! Not 1 year, but 5! Our puppies are so healthy that we feel we can stand behind this! You get a puppy with a healthy DNA. You get a registered puppy! You get a puppy that is not only good with kids but is very used to being around them! You get a puppy with a gorgeous, fluffy, soft and not a bleached coat! Yes, some puppies are bathed in a shampoo that has bleach in it! I don't know a single breeder except myself who doesn't use this toxic shampoo! You get a puppy who has been raised on a predominantly meat based diet. This is what their ancestors ate and this is what they should be eating to be healthy! You get a holistically raised puppy!

My husband got me a new laptop for Christmas and I set it up myself, it really wasn't that difficult, usually one of my kids does this type of thing for me.

" Martin Goldstein, D.V.M
~~~The first thing that must change is the myth that vaccines are harmless. Veterinarians and animal guardians have to come to realize that they are not protecting animals from disease by annual vaccinations, but in fact, are destroying the health and immune systems of these same animals they love and care for." Dr. Charles Loops D.V.M.
Read more on my Immunizations Page and Puppy Care Page. Please let me know if you have any questions. Of course, I am not pushy about whether or not you vaccinate your puppy once it leaves my care. Your puppy is no longer my responsibility but yours and you are free to do as you please.

Welcome to my website. I have spent many hours working on it. There is quite a bit of information on it and it keeps growing.
I am passionate about puppies/dogs and keeping them healthy and I find the holistic world very fascinating. It is important that the information I have found helpful get passed along to you, so you can always make the best decision when it comes to your dogs health care. While I do have a five year health guarantee, I do not want a phone call even years later, with bad news about your dog. By the way, after 16 years of breeding, I have yet to get one of those phone calls!
My goal is to have your puppy live until it is at least 17 years old, if not 25 years, and die of natural causes and not cancer etc... Many health issues our pets have are easily preventable. Many things that we take for granted and assume we have to do when raising our puppies/dogs, can alter their DNA, which in turn affects their health. Please take the time to read the rest of the pages on this website and learn. There are many holistic vet's who claim dogs can live this long, 25 years, if raised holistically, some claim they can live even longer than that! These are long and healthy years!
I cringe everytime a potential dog customer tells me that their dog lived until it was old, 13 years... I hate to tell you this, but 13 years for a dog to live is not a very long time. Of course there are many more of you who have a dog that doesn't even make it to the age of 5 because it get's cancer. Please read my website, it get's me right in the heart when I hear about a dog getting cancer or dying of "old age." "Our ongoing studies of dogs show that following routine vaccination, there is a significant rise in the level of antibodies dogs produce against their own tissues. Some of these antibodies have been shown to target the thyroid gland, connective tissue such as that found in the valves of the heart, red blood cells, DNA, etc." Dr Larry Glickman
As I explore the natural health world, I find it very exciting to see alternative things work! Like using Natural Wonders Clay for loose stools, for instance! You can read about that on my Stools Page. It is amazing to me!
There are many cheap and easy things to use on your pet that work even better than many things your vet may recommend and there are no unwanted side affects!
Everything I write about I feel very strongly about and want to share with you.
Please feel free to explore my website and email or call if you have any questions. Have fun! Maryjo
For those who are already very holistic, make sure you read this page!
~~~All my puppies are registered and come with a 5 year health guarantee!
Sweet little Buttercup!
By the way, if a puppy is going to have a genetic problem, it usually doesn't show up until after they are 1 year of age. This is why you don't find many breeders offering a guarantee for more than 1 year.
~~~Immunizations alter the DNA and this is what shows up as a genetic problem. So if a puppy has been vaccinated, and they are being vaccinated more than one time before they come to live with you, their DNA will be altered and they will have genetic problems. Like I said above, this usually will not show up until after the age of one, my guarantee extends until the age of five. If their parents have been vaccinated and even their grandparents, then this will affect your puppy too. You do not want a puppy who has parents and grandparents with a DNA that has been altered. I know I have been repeating this, but it shocks me that immunizations not only do this but that they continue to be given by the vets and breeders. Please do not buy a vaccinated puppy or a puppy that has parents who have been vaccinated.
I recently talked to a man who bought a puppy from me almost 3 years ago. Keep in mind, this puppy was not vaccinated by me but he did have one rabies shot when he was older. The man had to get blood titers done so he could put the dog in a boarding facility so he could go on vacation. The kennel required immunizations which the man did not want to do but they were willing to accept the blood titers being done by a vet. Through blood titers, a vet is then able to see how much immunity a dog has against certain diseases. The vet he took his dog to was stunned and said he never saw anything like it before, the dog had so much immunity! Ha, I love it! "Medical" proof that what I do with my puppies and don't do to them, is really really good for them! Meanwhile, I know of someone else who had a young dog and his titers were done, only to find that he had very low immunity. He also had no vaccines but came from parents who were vaccinated. Interesting, I thought, seeing as I keep saying the vaccines from the parents and even the granparents can affect the health of the offspring.
***The most important thing I offer you, is I raise your puppy holistically. When I sell you your puppy, it is very healthy and has an extra strong immune system. Your puppy has the very best start in life he can possibly get. Not only does your puppy have healthy DNA but in almost every case, his parents and grandparents do too. Make sure you do some reading on my website! Start here with my Immunizations Page!
Enjoy the slide show below!!! These are puppies that have been sold! I also have a Previous Puppy Page you may want to look at!
I am a holistic breeder. This means I find natural ways to keep my puppies and adults healthy. My puppies and adult dogs are far more healthier than they ever have been since I have been using the natural protocols! (Us too!)
___________________________________________________________ Please see my other pages for more information about the care your puppy will have received while I have had him in my care. I highly recommend you read some of these pages as they will answer many of the questions that you may have, of course feel free to call or email me too!
~~Our Puppies are Hypoallergenic and Non Shedding~~ ~~Our Puppies are Incredibly Sweet and Gentle~~ ~~Our Puppies are Not Yippy~~ ~~Our Puppies Come with a 5 Year Health Guarantee~~ ~~Our Puppies are Registered~~ ~~Our puppies, since they have not been vaccinated, come to you with a healthy DNA. Without a healthy DNA, you will not have a healthy dog. Our puppies also come from a long line of ancestors with healthy DNA's. Usually mom and dad have not been vaccinated and grandma and grandpa have not been vaccinated. A puppy with an altered DNA may or may not have issues in his first year of life, but as that puppy grows, he will definitely be an unhealthy adult and will have a shortened life span. ~~Our puppies come with any help I can offer you for the lifetime of your pet~~

My Newest "Happy Customer" Email!
Hello Maryjo, I purchased Scotty in the Spring of 2011. He was the last one left from The American Idol litter. Just wanted you to know he is the best dog I have ever owned. Scotty is loving, loyal, healthy and happy. I also just changed VETS! Our Scotty is now 22.2 pounds and gorgeous. My new vet is very impressed with him and even told me he came from an EXCELLENT BREEDER and it is obvious! WOW, BE PROUD! I am holistic 100% for my two dogs and I'm following everything I have learned from you!
THANK YOU! Your new web site is GREAT! God Bless You and Your Wonderful Family Jane

You can't buy loyalty, they say, I bought it though, the other day. You can't buy friendship, tried and true, But just the same, I bought that too. I made my bid, and on the spot. Bought love and faith and a whole lot of happiness, so all in all, the purchase price was pretty small. I bought a single trusting heart, that gave devotion from the start. If you think these things are not for sale, Buy a brown-eyed puppy with a wagging tail.
