🏡 Early Development & Socialisation
Our puppies are raised within the home as part of daily life, not in kennel blocks. We have 6 children whom are heavily involved with the dogs, their care and showing also.
The puppies are developed using a structured, experience-based socialisation programme, refined over many years. Puppies are raised within our established, balanced adult pack, allowing them to learn:
• Appropriate canine communication
• Emotional stability and resilience
• Boundaries and manners from a young age
We consider this early education fundamental to producing confident, well-adjusted dogs.
For this reason, we do not allow puppies to leave before 10 weeks, and will often retain them until 12 weeks where beneficial to their development. Prior to this we firmly believe the puppies are too young both physically and mentally to leave their litter, increasing chances of immediate health implications (such as stress related diarrhoeas) and behavioural issues later down the line.

📌 Additional information
• Pyrenean Mastiffs are one of the rarest breeds in the world. Thought to be little over 3000 registered dogs worldwide. Although they are livestock guardians their gentle and relaxed temperament has made their translation to family homes natural and easy
• We have dedicated years to research and support of this magnificent breed to help introduce them to the UK, and are looking for the best homes for them
•. We are happy to support you in advice and training if you are looking to use them as livestock guardians, they are raised on our farm and are exposed to and experience livestock as soon as it is safe to do
•. We also encourage anyone to take up showing and will fully support and guide if this is something that interests you
•. We are also happy for puppies to go into homes just to be loved and cared for. Ultimately that is the most important thing.
•. Puppies are raised on raw food alongside a cold pressed complete pellet enabling owners to feed dry or raw. Please note we will not place any puppy in a home where low quality extruded kibble will be fed. Diet is the foundation to good health/ longevity and priority of quality food is upmost in line with our experience and ethics.
