THE INVESTMENT
A whole lot goes into raising your little honey.
The Sweet Details
Because the little things matter, too.
There’s a lot tucked into those first eight weeks at Milk & Honey. Long before your puppy packs their little bag and heads home, we’ve been busy loving them, caring for them, learning who they are and laying the foundation for the dog they’re becoming.
Here’s a little peek at everything that goes into your Milk & Honey puppy. ♡

A well-raised puppy starts with thoughtfully chosen parents. We put time, research and a whole lot of consideration into our pairings before puppies ever enter the picture.
Our breeding dogs undergo extensive health and genetic testing, including:
♡ DNA + genetic health testing

♡ PennHIP when applicable

♡ Careful pedigree + genetic review
♡ Thoughtful pairing based on health, temperament, structure and geneticsWe believe knowing what's behind our puppies is just as important as knowing what's in front of us.
