All pups are showing good progress. Lockhard's Tomo is swimming like a champ and we expect her to go home with Phil and Sandra soon, too!

Our started dog program begins by bringing out the natural desire in the dog, then instills the obedience needed to control your dog in intense situations. We teach basic field and whistle commands, introduce the e-collar, and expose them to lots of birds. Please call or email us if interested in our Started or Finished Dogs.

Dog Sales Subject to Sales Tax

People are often taken aback when sales tax is added to the cost of our dogs. We try to remember to mention it upfront to avoid surprises. The California State Board of Equalization Pub 122 states in part, "Sales tax generally applies to sales of animals, birds, reptiles, and insects that do not meet the definition of “food animals”, whether they are used for working stock, breeding, pets, or other purposes." See the publication in its entirety at http://www.boe.ca.gov/pdf/pub122.pdf.
