Frequently Asked Questions
We maintain a strict "zero-tolerance" policy for puppy mills. Every puppy we bring into Singapore is sourced from registered breeders who prioritize welfare over volume. We personally vet our partners to ensure their breeding dogs live in enriched environments and are never over-bred.
Absolutely! We believe in being transparent with every puppy we place. Beyond the mandatory AVS import requirements, we require our breeders to conduct comprehensive veterinary examinations and DNA testing on the parent dogs. This screens for breed-specific hereditary conditions, ensuring your puppy has the strongest possible foundation for a healthy life. We provide documented proof of the parents’ health screenings and veterinary checks upon request. This helps give you confidence in your puppy’s background and allows you to better understand and manage your puppy’s long-term health.
By ensuring that both parents have passed rigorous DNA testing and health screenings before a puppy even enters Singapore, we significantly reduce the risk of hereditary diseases. This provides you with a healthier companion and also helps minimize the likelihood of unexpected long-term veterinary costs.
Yes, we do! Our goal is to improve the standard of pet ownership in Singapore by ensuring a suitable match between the puppy's specific temperament and your lifestyle. Our screening process helps prevent impulse purchases and ensures our puppies go to homes where they will truly thrive for their entire lives. Beyond the mandatory AVS Pet Purchase Declaration (PPD), we hold a get-to-know session with you and any potential family members of your puppy. We discuss your daily routine, living environment, and long-term plans to ensure you are fully prepared for the commitment of a high-quality, ethically-sourced puppy.
Yes. We reserve the right to decline a sale if we believe a particular breed's needs do not align with a buyer's current lifestyle or home environment. This is not a judgment, but a safeguard to ensure our puppies never end up in unsuitable or "temporary" homes.
Our pricing reflects a quality-first approach and the level of care, transparency, and responsible practices behind every puppy we place. It includes the costs of ethical sourcing, comprehensive DNA testing and health screenings of the puppy’s parents, as well as proper care once the puppies arrive in Singapore. We also continue structured early development practices such as Puppy Culture to support confident and well-adjusted puppies.
Beyond that, we invest time in educating new owners, thoughtfully matching each puppy with suitable homes, and providing a comprehensive starter kit together with long-term support. While this holistic approach does increase our costs, our goal is not simply to sell a puppy, but to ensure each one is responsibly raised and placed in a loving, well-prepared home.
We believe our responsibility continues long after your puppy goes home. Every owner receives a comprehensive Puppy Handbook with guidance on settling in, feeding, routines, and early training. You will also have access to our post-purchase support line, where we are happy to assist with questions about your puppy’s adjustment, nutrition, and early-stage training. Our goal is to support you through the transition into puppy parenthood so that both you and your puppy start this journey with confidence. We remain a resource for you whenever you need guidance throughout your puppy’s early journey.
We provide a checklist and guidance through our New Puppy Checklist and Puppy Handbook to help you prepare essentials such as food, bedding, and safe spaces.
While puppies are not fully trained, we begin early development practices and provide guidance to help you continue training at home.
Our puppies are raised in domestic or highly social environments rather than isolated cages. They are exposed to various sounds, people, and gentle handling during their critical developmental weeks, which helps them grow into confident, well-adjusted companions. We follow structured protocols like Puppy Culture when they reach our facility that introduce puppies to various textures, domestic sounds, social scenarios and gentle human handling in a safe environment. This ensures that by the time they reach you, they have already begun learning how to cope with the "newness" of the world. This foundation is critical for developing a confident, well-adjusted adult dog that can handle the busy Singapore environment.
As part of our commitment to lifelong welfare, if you can no longer keep your dog, we ask that you contact us first so we can assist in finding a vetted, ethical rehoming solution.
