The puppies leave us at seven weeks of age. We have them vet checked and inoculated at six weeks, and then spend that next week evaluating them. We use a hybrid puppy test that we patched together; one of us drinks wine while observing the other test the puppies. Afterward we both drink wine and guess at which puppy goes where.

Yes. Dogs like routine and once a routine is established for them in their new home, they are quick to settle in. Indeed there are distinct advantages to choosing an older puppy or an adult dog instead of a tiny puppy. An older dog might be the best choice for very young children, as they are better able to tolerate rough play and are less likely to be seriously injured if tripped upon by a toddler.

Puppies go home when they are ready. In the state of Illinois, a puppy cannot be legally sold until he/she is eight weeks old. We do not let our puppies go any earlier than ten weeks of age. Each puppy is treated as an individual and can go home once they are eating well on their own and have passed their final veterinarian exam.

We typically let puppies go to their new homes around 8 to 10 weeks of age. We do not let puppies go prior to 8 weeks. In some circumstances we may keep some puppies up to 12-16 weeks of age. The process of deciding what particular puppy you will get involves many factors. We only breed litters where we intend to keep puppies ourselves. We get first pick and will not make a decision on which puppy or puppies we are keeping until at least 7 weeks of age.

I let them go at 8 weeks old only because 99% of people want them as young and as tiny as possible. I used to sell them at 10 weeks old, but found out that was really bad for business. Now, I let them go at 8 weeks old, but only after I warn people that if you expect to go to work all day long come home and throw food at your puppy, and then go out to dinner, do not expect a healthy puppy when you return home, and have your credit card ready for vet bills.

A guide dog puppy is treated like a member of the family at home. However, guide dog puppies are different from regular pet dogs. They are special partners for people with special needs. For that reason, they must be taught differently than other dogs. We must always think about how the puppy's actions will affect his future partner.

We keep the pups until they are 8 weeks old. This way all their shots are current and they have had ample time to socialize. For special circumstances we will hold pups longer for our clients. We understand getting fencing in and other things may hold you off a couple of weeks. After the pups 10th week of age we charge a $50 per week holding fee.

It isn't easy, but we learned long ago that we can't possibly keep all of the dogs that need homes. By focusing on what is best for the dog, rather than on our own feelings, we are able to let the dog go to a wonderful home where he will be the center of attention rather than one of a pack. There is no greater reward than to receive happy notes and photos of our foster kids surrounded by their loving families.

Most of our puppies are ready to go at 9 to 10 weeks. We have found that this is an ideal age to begin the socialization and bonding process and allows us to focus on primary socialization here during the critical first 9 weeks. During primary socialization, our puppies are exposed to gentle adult dogs, cats, horses, agility obstacles, noises, various environments, car rides, vet offices, children and unfamiliar visitors.

The training your puppy receives in its first 8 weeks can last a lifetime. Thus socialization is not taken lightly at Sunshine Acres. Following is a general schedule each litter follows while here: weeks -- The puppies are maternally socialized. This simply means they are cared for and taught by their mother. Human contact is limited to healthcare. weeks -- The puppies are imprinted to human contact with petting and light play as well as continued training from their mother.

We do not take deposits for puppies at any time prior to the puppies being born. After the puppies are born we have a better idea of how many puppies will be available. We may take deposits any time after the puppies are born and up until they are 8 weeks old. We do not take deposits for more puppies that we plan to sell. Deposits are in the amount of half the total purchase price with the remaining half due at pick up. Deposits are NON-REFUNDABLE.

No, we will NOT ship puppies. We require all puppy buyers to pick up their puppy in person. We strongly recommend against shipping any puppies and/or adults for many reasons.

All puppies/litters from Woodcrest are raised in our home where they get near constant attention from both us and their Airedale Mother.

We keep the puppies and their living areas as clean as possible; their Mother helps with this too.
