Puppies grow up in a family setting with daily handling, gentle socialization and supervised play alongside older dogs and family members. Climate-controlled areas support their comfort while exposure to household sounds helps them adapt easily. Each litter is raised with guidance from a local veterinarian who specializes in small breeds, ensuring timely vaccinations and preventive care.

The focus on clear communication and positive reinforcement during basic puppy exercises encourages confidence and early learning. Many puppies adapt well to apartment living thanks to their calm indoor behavior and moderate exercise needs. Attention to breed standards and ongoing wellness checks helps ensure balanced temperaments and sturdy health.
