THE JLDD DIFFERENCE

THAT SHOWS UP IN EVERY PUPPY

YES - It's entirely possible that we're a bit biased, but we consider our breeding and training program to be one of the best in the country. Though we occasionally have multiple litters at once, we are the furthest thing from a puppy mill you can get. We try our best to be very transparent about our business, even when it's not easy. Every member of our team pours their heart and soul into our puppies - and we think it shows in the dispositions of each of our babies. Won't you allow us to tell you more? 

RESPONSIBLY PLANNED BREEDINGS

 

Each of our breeding dogs undergoes extensive health testing prior to being bred. These tests can be found in their individual profiles HERE.

 

This saves both of us, breeder and pawrent, serious potential heartache. Our testing includes pertinent hip and elbow radiographs, as well as genetic disease panels, color testing, and coat testing. This ensures that your puppy will have a perfect coat and be clear of genetic diseases.

 

We know each parents' temperament well and also consider what would make the most well-balanced puppies.

FROM THE MOMENT

Our mommas are bred, they are cared for carefully by their guardian homes or our facility staff and given extra vitamins, extra calories...and extra LOVE!

 

They are confirmed pregnant by ultrasound at 4 weeks, and we get their puppy counts around 7 weeks via x-ray. When it's close to time for them to come have their pups, they move in early and take plenty of time to get comfortable with our knowledgable, caring staff of doodle lovers!

MONITORED WHELPINGS

Every whelping we do is special, and we take bringing puppies into the world very seriously. If we created them, it's our job to make sure they get here safely.

 

Cindy, head of our labor team stays with our moms 24/7 for the days leading up to their delivery, and around-the-clock after the puppies are born to make sure everyone is safe. It's a bit graphic, but watch the way our team assists with deliveries in this whelping video.

EARLY NEUROLOGICAL STIMULATION

 

At 3 days old, we start all of our puppies on early neurological stimulation, or ENS. This is a practice that has been developed for decades, and helps develop puppies' stress reflexes from a young age. It's proven to consistently produce calmer puppies with better temperaments - and that's what we're all about here at JLDD!

PUPPY CULTURE PROTOCOLS

All of our puppies are raised on the well-known puppy culture protocol. If you're not familiar with puppy culture, it's a program that helps engage puppies and teach them some of the most important skills they'll need in their lives. This includes stress responses, problem solving, and more! You can learn more at www.puppyculture.com

DAILY INDIVIDUAL TIME

EVERY day, we spend intentional time with EVERY puppy, and document their reactions to various activities and stimuli in their growing slowly growing worlds. As they age, we are able to track their progress and understand what makes every puppy "tick". By the time they are ready for their matchmaking day at 8 weeks, we have a huge amount of information about each puppy to be able to match them to their perfect family nearly every time! 

EXTRA CRATE & POTTY TRAINING

It's loud and messy - but it's worth it! Our puppies are all started on crate training at 2 weeks old. Though we cannot guarantee it as every puppy is different, many puppies sleep through the night in their crates the first night in their new homes! Puppies are NOT fully potty trained, but we get them well on their way!

MORE THAN A UTERUS

Each of our mommas is more than just a vehicle for having puppies. Each of them is special and has their own set of needs, be it extra cuddles while they're feeding their puppies, some private fetch time, being spoon-fed their breakfast, or just extra company throughout the day.

 

If a mom struggles with her puppies, we do all we can to support her, and will ultimately decide not to breed her in the future if it decided that it is in her best interest. 

WEEKLY PUPDATES

 

After your puppy is born, you'll receive our weekly 'pupdates'! These include  lots of information about where your puppy is developmentally that week, as well as some extra photos of your litter! We're all-the-time taking photos of these cuties and this is our place to share!

 

There's a lot to learn about them and we want to share every step of the process with you, their furever families!

INDIVIDUALIZED MATCHMAKING 

Our matchmaking program is one of a kind and tailored specifically to the things you care most about! Including compatibility with kids, other dogs, energy level, allergy concern levels, and more. Our team works hard to make sure EVERY puppy finds the RIGHT home for them. 

We have LOTS to say about this, so read about it on the MATCHMAKING PAGE

PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY

Every two weeks, our professional photographer, Susan, comes in and takes your puppy's newest headshots! They grow SO MUCH in such a short time.

 

All of your puppy's photos are available for purchase at our shop or on our photography page and make excellent gifts for the JLDD puppy parwrent in your life!
