We will choose a most suitable pup for you.

 When the litter is  whelped, we most likely  have deposits from people on our waiting list for a male or a  female puppy.   All applicants at that point have already  filled out our Puppy  Application, have been interviewed on the phone or in person and were approved to purchase one of our puppies.  Even though we are aware of  prospective puppy  owners’ goals and expectations for the pup they are  waiting for, at that time  we do not know which puppy will go to which  home. 

 Puppies are home raised  either at Midnight Solo Headquarters or by members of our extended Family.                       The  litter is well taken care of and socialized to  the best of our abilities,  exposed to different surfaces, such as  linoleum, hard wood, carpet, wood deck,  grass and  gravel in summer or  snow in  winter  and as many sounds as we can find life or on CDs.

Puppy Gym is introduced at 3 weeks of age.  We build drive, use flirt pole,  teach to fetch, 

 Puppies are handled by many people and  children, exposed to a person in  a wheelchair, and other dogs.   In  the  first 2 weeks we implement bio-sensory program that is thought to  give an extra  boost to immune, adrenal and cardio-vascular systems,  giving our pups a great  start in life.  

 By the time pups are ready  to go to the new home, they have been handled, washed, blow dried and groomed  several times. 
We carefully observe the  litter, weigh them every  day for first 30 days to insure proper food intake and  take detailed  notes on each puppy, keeping in mind each family’s expectations.  

MSK Owner Jean is an AKC Breeder of Merit. Our kennel is actively involved in Better Bred Genetic program and Embark genetic testing.

We implement suitable for our breed elements of Puppy Culture and Avidog puppy raising and aptitude testing protocols. 

MSK Pups are exposed to a baby dog walk, wobble board, tunnel, puppy pool.

We load the clicker, teach basic recall and several interactive games. 

 At approximately 7 weeks  pups are  vaccinated, micro chipped and carefully examined by our vet.  Then we  assess each litter and each puppy for aptitude for  learning, problem solving skills,  basic temperament trends and ability to  handle stress in various  situations.
When the test is completed  we spend hours  elaborating which puppy will be most suited for a family/person  that is  waiting for it.
