We are a small hobby breeder. All our adults are raised in our home, as well as the puppies are, with loving on-hands in-home care. They will come prespoiled. They will be raised around children of varing ages and other pets.
Although most people are wanting their new puppy at 6 - 8 weeks of age, we advise against this as these are very small puppies and should not be released to there new home until they are closer to 10 weeks or longer depending on size. This is for there health as we want you to receive a healthy bundle of joy not a sickly, weak puppy.

MALE VS. FEMALE:
MALES: They tend to be more affectionate, more exuberant and more demanding of attention. They tend to be more steadfast and reliable and less moody. No matter what his age they tend to be silly and puppy-like. He is also more likely to try to dominate you particularly during his first year or so. They can be territorial, marking there sent on everything. Although, neutering him may help it is not always 100% effective. Also consider that if you have another un-neutered male in the home the other dog may not be as tolerant.
FEMALES: She can be affectionate but when she has had enough she will move away. She is usually easier trained and less distracted during training. She does not usually try to dominate you but can be cunning and resourceful in getting her way. Like all women they are prone to mood swings, one day she may be sweet and affectionate and the next reserved or even grumpy. During a heat cycle if not spayed can leave bloody discharge on carpets and furniture, they do sell doggie diapers for this though.
