As you can see a kiddie pool, makes an excellent whelping box.  It is easy to clean, and with a special heating pad under the pool, it is easy to keep puppies warm without the use of a heat lamp or over heating the whole room.  For the first couple of weeks, it is easiest to keep them on the pool without bedding, mom keeps them clean and dry, and puppies don't get tangled in the bedding.  By 3 - 4 weeks, puppies are up and about enough to be trying to escape the pool, and are eating puppy food.  At that time they are transferred to our "puppy pen" with a dog house for a bed.  This teaches them to enjoy  living in a crate, and to get out of the box to eliminate.  We expose the puppies  to cats and household noises & children (when we can round some up to play). Puppies are vet checked, vaccinated, and dewormed prior to sale at 8 weeks of age.   We are firm believers in providing a lifetime of support for our puppy buyers and encourage buyers to contact us with any questions.  As responsible breeders we require buyers to return dogs to us if for any reason they are unable to keep their dog, no matter how old it may be.
