Our standards & practices

Health testing & screening

Question. Do you health test appropriately (eg hip and elbow X-ray scoring, DNA testing), and understand the genetic issues that may affect your breed? If your breed is prone to health issues, what are they, and what testing practices do you have in place?
Answer. Yes.Yes, we are committed to ensuring the health and well-being of our dogs through rigorous health testing measures. We employ various techniques such as DNA testing for JDCM through https://vetmed.umn.edu/research/research-labs/canine-genetics-lab/canine-genetics-testing/toy-manchester-terrier-english, to thoroughly assess potential genetic issues that may affect our breed. Our breeding strategies are not only sensible but also sustainable, prioritizing the overall health and vitality of our dogs and puppies. We believe in responsible breeding practices that contribute to the betterment of the breed, and we continuously strive to stay informed about advancements in veterinary care and genetics to uphold the highest standards in our breeding program. Our dedication to health testing and responsible breeding is at the core of our commitment to producing happy, healthy, and well-adjusted dogs.

Preparation & socialisation

Question. Do you ensure that your puppies are properly socialised?
Answer. Yes.Yes, we place a strong emphasis on ensuring that our puppies receive thorough and effective socialization. From the earliest stages of their lives, we introduce them to a variety of environments, people, and experiences to foster well-rounded and socially adept individuals. Our socialization efforts include exposing the puppies to different sounds, surfaces, objects, and interactions with various people and animals. This helps them develop into confident, adaptable, and friendly companions. We believe that proper socialization is crucial for shaping the temperament and behavior of our puppies, and we are dedicated to providing them with the best start in life to ensure they grow up to be well-adjusted and sociable members of their future families.

Placement & matching

Question. Is making sure your puppies go to the right homes a priority? How do you ensure they are placed in loving, responsible homes?
Answer. Yes.Yes, ensuring that our puppies go to the right and loving homes is a top priority for us. We take a series of measures to carefully assess and select potential adopters. This includes the use of a detailed buyer questionnaire and conducting verbal or personal interviews to understand the prospective owners' lifestyles, experience with dogs, and their commitment to providing a loving and responsible home. We also provide information about the breed's characteristics and needs to ensure that the adopters are well-prepared for the responsibilities of pet ownership. Our commitment goes beyond the initial adoption, as we offer ongoing support and guidance to our puppy buyers, fostering a strong and lasting relationship to ensure the well-being of our dogs throughout their lives. By implementing these measures, we strive to guarantee that our dogs and puppies find homes that are not only suitable but also filled with love and care.
Question. Do you have any of the following: conditions of sale, health guarantee or warranty, de-sexing agreement, a buyer questionnaire, verbal or personal interview?
Answer. Yes.Yes, we have a comprehensive set of protocols and documents in place to ensure responsible and ethical practices in our breeding program. Our conditions of sale outline the terms and expectations for both the buyer and seller, emphasizing the well-being of the puppy. We provide a health guarantee or warranty to assure our clients that the puppies are in good health at the time of purchase. A de-sexing agreement is also part of our commitment to promoting responsible pet ownership. Additionally, we use a buyer questionnaire and conduct verbal or personal interviews with potential adopters to ensure a suitable match between the puppy and its new home. These measures are essential components of our dedication to the welfare of our dogs and the satisfaction of our clients.

Ongoing support

Question. Do you offer ongoing support?
Answer. Yes. Yes, we are dedicated to providing ongoing support to all our new puppy owners. Our commitment extends beyond the initial adoption, and we strive to be a valuable resource for any questions, concerns, or guidance that may arise throughout the life of the dog. We offer information on training, health care, and general well-being to ensure that our puppies continue to thrive in their new homes. Our goal is to build a strong and supportive relationship with our puppy owners, fostering a community where they feel comfortable reaching out for assistance or advice whenever needed. By offering ongoing support, we aim to contribute to the long-term happiness and well-being of our dogs in their loving homes. New owners know that we will take dogs back at any point during their lifetime as well.
Question. Do you assist the buyer with re-homing an animal that was purchased from you if they are unable to keep it?
Answer. Yes.Yes, we are committed to the well-being of our dogs throughout their lives, and we understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise for our puppy owners. In the event that a buyer is unable to keep a dog purchased from us, we actively assist and support them in the responsible re-homing process. We provide guidance, resources, and, when necessary, actively participate in finding a suitable and loving new home for the dog. Our priority is the welfare of the animal, and we believe in maintaining an open line of communication and collaboration with our puppy owners to ensure that every dog from our breeding program continues to receive the care and attention it deserves, even if circumstances change. New owners know that we will take dogs back at any point during their lifetime as well if we need to.
