GROWTH CURVE OF OUR PUPPIES

• Our puppies live with us at Chrisri Dogs for the first 8 to 10 weeks of their lives. This period is crucial for a puppy's development, during which we, as the breeders, are responsible for introducing them to a world of new experiences involving other dogs, humans, and animals. It's essential for us that our puppies are well-socialized and prepared for the big wide world they're about to join.
• The first 4 weeks are slow and relaxed. The puppies are raised in their whelping box inside our home, and during this period, they receive their first worming and nail clipping at 2 weeks. Introduction to solid food occurs at 3 weeks, consisting of Hill's Science Plan puppy food mushed into a soft porridge for the babies. Additionally, they undergo more nail clipping, deworming, and a bit of grooming. We also begin their potty training at this point by providing them with a newspaper corner, where they quickly learn to do their business.
• At 4 weeks, our puppies are moved out of the whelping box into a larger puppy paddock area where they have plenty of space and green grass to run, play, investigate, and develop. At this stage, we provide them with a variety of educational toys and obstacles to stimulate their little personalities. They are already eating like pros, and potty training remains a significant focus for us.
• At 6 weeks, it's time for vaccination, the third deworming, and microchipping. Our puppies also undergo a full health check to ensure they are in excellent health.
• Between 8 to 10 weeks, your bundle of joy is personally driven by me to Cape Town and Johannesburg for collection by their new owners. Alternatively, they can be collected personally from us on the farm. Puppies going to homes beyond these destinations are either transported by a reliable pet courier or taken to the airport for a flight to meet their new families.

• All Chrisridogs puppies are sold with a contract that should be agreed upon and signed by both the breeder and the new owner.

• Chrisridogs puppies are lively pups that enjoy outdoor activities as much as they enjoy indoor relaxation. However, it's important to note that they are an active, on-the-go breed that requires plenty of stimulation, training, and commitment.

• By nature, our puppies are placid and friendly, seeking the company of humans and other animals. They are affectionate, even-tempered, and eager to please.

• At Chrisridogs, we strive to breed top-quality animals that are healthy in body and mind. Our animals are loyal, friendly, and healthy family pets and protectors. They are also capable of excelling in the working environment if required.

• Chrisridogs doodles are a mixed breed, a cross between two purebred dogs, so they cannot be registered. Copies of both purebred parent registration certificates and health checks will be included in your puppy's file.
