Valley American Hairless Terriers Puppies

Health Guarantee
Our dogs are healthy and sound. Puppies are given the full set of shots and vet checked prior to leaving our home. We provide a full pedigree and genetic background of our dogs. We prefer families to come and meet the parents of the puppies, and visit the puppies as they grow up. Our puppies stay here until 10 weeks old at a minimum. It is very important for puppies to spend that time with their mother and father, and learn the complex social interactions of dogs. We intensely socialise our puppies as they grow up with people, children, other dogs, strange objects, noises, and any and everything they might encounter as they grow. The puppy's family must take over this social work and continue the process as intensely as the puppy grows to adulthood. Classes are highly recommended both as a bonding tool and a social event for both the puppy and the family!

Looking forward to getting to know you! Just cut and paste this questionnaire into an email and send it to us at Valley AHTs.
