Hello and 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 one year health guarantee, I do not want a phone
call even years later with bad news about your dog.  

My goal is to have your puppy live until it is at least 17 years old and die of natural
causes and not cancer etc...  Many health issues our pets have are easily preventable.  
So please take the time to read the rest of the pages on this website and learn.  

As I explore the "natural" health world, I find it very exciting to see alternative things
work!  Like using Bentonite Clay for diarrhea, 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!.

I am now promoting and/or selling some products on my website.  I want you to know
they are products I have used or places I have ordered from and have greatly
benefited from.   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
We truly love raising puppies and it
shows in each and every one we sell.  
All my family helps, from cleaning up
after them to bathing them.  From
playing with them to feeding them.
We are all involved in some aspect.  
Even the grandchildren "help" when
they come to visit!

that you know a little bit
about who is raising the new
addition to your family.
These are Buttercups!

How to Make Puppy Pie

Take one puppy, roll and play until lightly pampered,
then add the following ingredients.....

1 cup patience....
1 cup understanding....
1 pinch correction....
1 cup hard work....
2 cups praise and 1 1/2 cups fun...

Blend well.

Heat with warmth of your heart until raised or until
puppy has doubled in size.

Mix with owner until consistency is such that owner
and puppy are one.

Enjoy!
Below is my favorite recipe!  I thought this would
be a good place to put it!
Hello and welcome to Buttercup Puppies. This is the place
to find a healthy and happy puppy!  Our puppies are family
raised and are incredibly good with kids!  Almost all of the
breeds we offer are non shedding, hypoallergenic and not
yippy!

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.  See our other pages about this.

Thank you for visiting my site and please let me know if I
can help you with anything.

Hi Maryjo,

I found your website today while cruising the internet for possible puppies.  I
just wanted to commend you on your commitment to healthy puppies.  It appears
that you really care above and beyond anything I've every seen from a breeder
before.  The pictures of your family made me smile and made me feel like your
family and my family would be friends.  I am not yet ready to purchase a puppy,
but I think I've found my future puppy's breeder.   I work as a veterinary
technician at an animal hospital that has 3 holistic veterinarians practicing.  I have
2 dogs and a cat that, due to the holistic care they receive, as well as their
all-natural diets, will probably live well into their 20's!  (knock on wood).
The puppies on your website are absolutely beautiful! Keep up the extraordinary
work!

Thank you for your time,

Annie

Hi MaryJo,

I wanted to touch bases with you and tell you that Jasmine and I are still
absolutely in love with and still delighted with the purchase of Coco...our
Maltepoo.  He's the best little guy ever.  I have never met a single person who
hasn't wanted him.  And, I continue to refer many folks to you for puppies.

Your puppies are the best!  I can't describe what having Coco has done for us
this past 2-years.  He is so tolerant of our need to dress him up!   lol   We
sometimes take him, on a Friday night, to the pet store all dressed up with his
bib overhaul jeans on and high-top tennis shoes with socks so he can check out
all the girl doggies and look totally cool.

We like to put ribbons put in each ear.  He never cares.  He's loved and that's all
he knows and cares about.

Jasmine's life has been so enhanced by having Coco in it.  Shortly before we got
Coco, my husband passed away.  I knew she needed something to help her.  I
was told by a grief therapist that a dog can do wonders.  She wasn't kidding.  
Coco is our little  'therapoo'!

He's been great for both of us.

I wanted to thank you for selling us the dog of our dreams.  You were very
forthright and honest and I will DEFINITELY be back for more poochies in the
future.  You are an awesome breeder.


Thank you so kindly,
Clara and Jasmine

Below is a second email:

Feel free to post my email if this will help you.  I have always treated Coco with
natural food and holistically...thanks to you.  And...he's in beautiful condition with
ZERO tear marks...and hasn't ever had them.

Take good care.
Clara

I am a holistic breeder.  This means I find "natural" ways to keep my puppies and
adults healthy or to get them healthy if they become ill.

My puppies and adult dogs are far more healthier than they ever have been since I
have been using the natural protocols!

However I wouldn't hesitate to take a puppy or adult dog to the vet if I ever found
something I couldn't take care of on my own.

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.
We raise Buttercups, Maltese, Maltipoos,
Maltese/Bichons, and other mixed and designer
breeds.

For those of you who haven't held a puppy in awhile, you cannot
imagine how sweet they are or how soft.  There is nothing equal to
sitting and holding a puppy on your lap and petting him.  They are so
soft and silky and when they climb up into your neck to give you kisses,
it is unbelievable.
It has come to my attention that there is a scam artist
trying to scam YOU.  I do not have enough information to
understand how the scam works, but they are using my
website with an email with my name in it.

The email they are using is maryjovallero@yahoo.com.  
This is not me.
Puppy Poem

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 job 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.
