HOWEVER, WE OCCASIONALLY HAVE PUPPIES THAT DON'T FIT OUR REQUIREMENTS.

Here are Papillons that we currently have available.

This is Ziggy, a Cheiko/Mark daughter. We had her planned for the show ring but have changed our minds. She was born November 6, 2010 and is 11 months old in these pictures.

This is puppy #2 on our "new puppies" page. (See the white button at the top of this page.)

We've been worried about too much white on his face. It's getting better but probably still too much.

The sun was really streaming in and made it hard to get good exposure. (Well, yeah. It's a sunroom.)

Here he is at almost 5 months of age. He is in his "uglies" right now, but it's not too bad. He will be a very pretty dog when he matures.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is puppy #4. (The other two, #1 and #3 have found homes.)

For now, we are holding him out as a show prospect. It's still too early to know so he could become available as a pet later on. He would be available to the right show kennel.

We caution people to seek dogs from devoted breeders who are breeding ONLY for the quality and good of the breed. Show breeders are careful about the genetics and health of their dogs.

Many breeders feel that males make better pets. Male Papillons have a burning desire to be with you and to please you. A veteran Papillon breeder says: "Females like to be close to you and sit on your lap, but males want to unzip you and crawl inside. They want to be part of you."

People worry about males marking in the house. However, a male neutered soon enough, will generally never have problems with it.

It's difficult to obtain a dog and especially a female from a show breeder until they are usually around six months or older because we're waiting to see suitability for the show ring. Sometimes, we will let males go early because we need so few males compared to females. I should note that males are generally less expensive than females.

HOW TO FIND A REPUTABLE BREEDER

Here is an excellent resource, taken from the Boston Terrier Club of America website. It's a bit of a long read, but there's some very useful information here to study if you are hunting for a new puppy.

Here is another good resource from the Veterinary site Drs. Foster and Smith. It discusses the cost of owning a dog, though it does apply more to a larger dog..
