Our Mission Statement
|
At Aztec Kennels, I believe that a Golden's most important job is "Man's Best Friend." My puppies are bred for temperament, health,
and beauty; all of which help make them outstanding show dogs and family pets. The dogs at Aztec Kennels have pedigrees and are either
Canadian and/or American Kennel Club Champions. Each breeding is planned with great care, carefully evaluated with the goal of
improving the next generation.
The genetic make-up of each litter's parents is carefully and painstakingly studied to enhance and improve on each subsequent generation's health, structure, beauty and temperament. My dogs and those I breed have pedigrees that possess health clearances, and I include a consideration of each parent and grandparent's own littermates. This means an even stronger health and temperament outcome for a puppy. All dogs used for breeding have complete health clearances, including but not limited to: OFA/OVC clearance for Hip Dysplasia, cardiac defect Subvalvular Aortic Stenosis (SAS) and Hereditary Cataracts. The final factors in the longevity and health of a dog will be the care a dog receives both as a puppy and as an adult. Aztec puppies are raised in my house and are well socialized before going to their new families. They will have received all needed veterinary care, immunizations and temperament testing before leaving my home. As a general rule I will be the one choosing the best puppy to suit an individual buyer's needs and requests. The puppies will have started with housebreaking and crate training. New puppy owners are provided with an extensive puppy packet, which includes a copy of my contract, health clearances, pictures, pedigrees and much more. Every effort is made to insure each puppy will be destined for a long, happy and healthy life. Puppies will go home between 7 - 9 weeks depending on and if the pups are mature enough to go home. |
