FAQ
Good Questions
The things families ask us most. Got another? Text Miranda anytime.
- Q.What comes home with the puppy?
- A.Your new fluffy troublemaker heads home with a full starter kit to make the transition as smooth as possible (for both of you). You'll get the current food they're eating, a vaccination schedule, microchip registration info, potty training resources, and Miranda's contact information so you're never on your own. Plus a cozy blanket that smells like home, a fun toy, complete health records, the vet check letter, a small bag of dry food, a can of puppy food, and a few extra surprises. We basically send them off with a care package and a note saying good luck, they're fast!
- Q.Is the puppy fully vaccinated?
- A.Not yet, because fully vaccinated takes time! Puppies need 4 rounds of the big 5-way combo (Distemper, Adenovirus/Hepatitis, Parainfluenza, Parvovirus) between 6 and 16 weeks, usually spaced about 3 weeks apart, plus a Rabies vaccine. We send every puppy home with all the age-appropriate shots they've had so far, along with a clear schedule so you can keep them protected. We're all about doing it right, not rushing.
- Q.Is the puppy spayed or neutered?
- A.Nope! We prefer to let them keep their hormones a little longer for healthier development. We recommend waiting until they're about a year old, or until a female has gone through one heat cycle, before spaying or neutering. This is a big decision best discussed with your own vet. We'll happily share why we do it this way, but ultimately it's your call.
