In the fall of 2024 we had TWO litters!!! It was fun, it was rewarding, it was a lot of work. And...because of our own live circumstances, we still have a few gorgeous pups left. They have been well started with goats, do amazingly well with kittens, and have been exposed to ducks.

H2H Mingus x BSK Lavender
Purebred litter born October 1, 2024

These pups are ready for their new homes.Each pup has been individually registered with the CMDR, vet checked and microchipped.

Marilla - girl

Marilla is gorgeous! She has beautiful silky soft white hair. She seems to have inherited this from her Grandma Kona, who has the silkiest coat. She is on the smaller side for a CMD, but will still likely hit 70 pounds. Marilla LOVES traveling. On the farm she is somewhat quiet... she isn't shy, but not pushy either. On outings she comes alive, eagerly looking out all of the car windows, and excited to greet all the new people she meets. Marilla would make an outstanding family "working pet." Meaning she would gladly guard kids, and will fit right in on family outings, camping, and hiking. She does very well with goats and kittens.

These pups are ready for their new homes.Each pup has been individually registered with the CMDR, vet checked and microchipped.

Gus Gus - boy (RESERVED)

Gus Gus is the largest of the litter and always has been. He is calm and affectionate and is growing into a steadfast guardian. He loves his people and is serious about his job.

Elsa - girl (RESERVED)

Elsa is gorgeous, and the only pure white pup. She is sweet and affectionate and reminds me of her grandma Kona. She is energetic and fun loving, but also eager to please.
