Early May 2017 marked our first Greater Swiss Mountain Dog breeding, but we are not new to the adventure. Gaby has been a breeder of Newfoundland Dogs since 1976, and Mac has joined her for the past few litters, the latest of which was a litter of eight, born May 30, 2016.
We are careful and responsible breeders, relentlessly striving for the things that matter most in our opinion: temperament, structure, health, longevity, and working ability.
All of our litters are extensively socialized and intensively trained before going to new homes. Puppies are raised in our home, get lots of play and exercise, and start potty training with us.
Our socialization program includes daily novel object introduction, varied substrates, plenty of visitors including children, sound desensitization, car rides, novel locations, and more.
Puppies begin individual training for their meals at around 4-5 weeks old and includes crate training, recall, loose leash walking at heel, impulse control exercises, etc.
For photo and video examples of the kinds of activities our puppies enjoy during their time with us, visit our facebook page for photos and videos of the Nautical Newfs litter from 2016.
We carefully screen all potential puppy buyers and insist on in person visitation and puppy pick up. We will not ship puppies in cargo under any circumstance.
