Three puppies are looking for their forever homes.
Most of the puppies litter have gone to new homes,
but a few families decided the timing wasn’t right.
Maybe one is right for you.
Seven mostly black girls with some white, and one brown curly boy born February 18, 2024.
Both Xena and Rogue have great, easy to live with temperaments so I expect these puppies will too. Xena comes from a long line of athletic dogs who have excelled in conformation and dog sports. Even if you aren’t interested in competing with your dog, those attributes are important. Everyone wants a dog that is resilient and comfortable in new situations.
Great dogs start as puppies. We use Puppy Culture protocols to raise the puppies. We start with ENS (early neurologic stimulation) at 3 days. You can follow along with the next steps on the puppies’ page.
Xena has excelled at Scent Work – and she loves doing it – so the puppies will be evaluated at 7 weeks to identify the ones with the most aptitude for nose work , search and rescue, tracking and and identifying invasive species.
We will also do structural evaluations and temperament testing so we can make the best matches between the puppies and their forever families.

Arthur is about 10 weeks old. He was introduced to the clicker when he started eating. I clicked every time I put food down for the puppies. Now he knows that the sound of the clicker means he is doing the right thing.
About Miraval
