Jillfarm Springers - Last pups for Piper & Jaxson

All our pups will be Canadian Kennel Club registered. They will have their first shots, be wormed twice and have their tails docked and dew claws removed. We handle and play with our babies all the time. I have found this makes for more balanced, well socialized companions and members of your families. I also give a 2 year genetic health Guarantee in writing. Our pups are from Champion Lines, in Europe and in Canada, and we also have our stud dog, Piper's Jaxson at Jillfarm from the U.S.(new in 2007) All pups are sold with non-breeding contracts. Also, if for any reason your dog cannot be properly cared for by you in the future, we ask they are returned to us, and we will re-home them. I ask that you keep me up to date on the activities of your dogs, as it gives us great pleasure to here about all the joy our dogs bring to their families. Take a look at the grown-up pups section to see how our babies have done! Enjoy our site!

Christmas Puppies Due to Christmas we are waiting to sell the remain pups in this litter. Other than on this site, I have not advertised these pups yet. The ones already sold are to folks on our reserved pup list, and these people have waited patiently for their pups. If you are indeed interested, and truely passionate about a dog, and the well being of the dog then I am sure you will understand this. Our pups are like our children and all we want for them is the best families and life. These are NOT throw away dogs. If this is fine for you, then please contact me. Our three remaining boys are ready to go by Decenmber 9th. Please read the below post. And everyone have a Merry Christmas! Around the holidays we see a lot of ads for "Christmas Puppies For Sale". There is also a lot of negative feelings about puppies being sold as Christmas presents. So what's the deal, is it good or bad and why?? It all depends on the person's individual circumstances. As a rule, pets should NEVER be given as presents without the person on the receiving ends knowledge. It is not fair to give a living creature as a surprise present. Sure, you may be paying for the initial cost, however that initial cost is NOTHING compared to the rest of the pets life. Living creatures require a lot of time, money and TLC years beyond the initial cost. Is it ok to give a pet to my child as a surprise Christmas present? Having a pet can be very rewarding for a child. It can teach them responsibility and it is proven that children with pets are overall happier. People who own pets live longer, have less stress, and have fewer heart attacks. Most pet owners say their pets make them smile more than once a day. If the person you are giving the pet to is your own child, it can be a surprise, but only under the condition YOU YOURSELF as a parent want the pet as much as the child and YOU are ready and willing to take on the work of the new pet. Often times children do not realize how much work having a pet can be. If you as a parent are not willing to do the work yourself, do not get the pet. This is a living creature, one that will suffer if not properly cared for. Parents must be paying close attention at all times to the care their child is giving to the pet. If your child is not responsible with the pet, YOU as a parent must take over. Pets should not be treated as disposable objects. If you as a parent are not ready for the work load of a pet, DO NOT GET THE PET. While you might think you have a very responsible child who will never forget to feed and clean up after Fido, there will be times the child sleeps over a friend's house or absent mindedly forgets to care for the pet. Parents need to oversee the pets care 7 days a week to ensure the pet is properly cared for. When is it ok to buy a pet as a Christmas present? When the pet was already decided upon BEFORE the holiday season. When the person you are buying the pet for is well aware of your intentions and has given it a lot of thought and has done a lot of research on the type of pet, ongoing cost, time and care involved in keeping the pet. This especially goes for puppies. Have you ever heard the saying "Before one has kids they should have a dog?" Dogs, especially puppies can be just about as much work as a human child. If all parties are in agreement and the pet would have been adopted with or without the upcoming Christmas season, it is ok to wait until the holidays to adopt the pet. BUT FIRST, Ask yourself... Are you ready for a Dog?? Last Of 2008 Christmas Puppies Euthanized, Here is a heart wrenching story of what happens to many Christmas puppies. Marking Start Of SpringNEW YORK—In a familiar sign that spring is just around the corner, animal shelters across the nation announced this week that they have put down the last batch of dogs that were given as Christmas gifts in 2008. "It's that time of year again," said Darien, CT animal control specialist Erica Tierney, throwing the carcass of yet another 2-year-old Labradoodle into an incinerator. "As soon as the weather starts to warm up, we find ourselves administering pentobarbital injections to those final few puppies who were once a welcome Christmas gift, but have since been abandoned by people tired of caring for them." "Come April, we'll have a nice little break, but before you know it, the 2009 puppies will start rolling in and then the whole cycle starts up again," added Tierney, removing a soiled red bow from the neck of a dead cocker spaniel. Tierney joked with reporters that she could "almost set [her] watch" by the annual arrival at the shelter of emaciated, flea-ridden dogs seized by the county, all of them gifts from two years ago who gradually became less adorable until they were no longer able to elicit the sympathy of their owners. For many Americans, this cycle is simply part of the rhythm of life: The earth lies dormant in winter, a time when children and romantic partners receive puppies as shortsighted holiday gifts, and then in spring the world reawakens as sunny days return, green leaves sprout forth, the mass dog euthanasia hits its peak, and flowers bloom. "Two years ago we bought Lisa a puppy for Christmas," said Jason Hutton of San Diego, who quietly abandoned his daughter's Lhasa apso by the side of a road when he grew weary of family arguments over whose turn it was to feed it. "And there came a point where it just wasn't a puppy anymore, you know?" According to animal control officials, the dogs they are most commonly obliged by mercy to kill are pugs, miniature pinschers, and pit bulls, but the breeds vary as fads and fashions change from year to year. "There must have been a movie with chihuahuas in it a couple years back because half of these little guys are chihuahuas," said Chicago- area veterinary anesthesiologist Leonard Noonan, strapping a gas mask to the muzzle of his 11th small, round- headed dog of the day. "But anything's better than the huge piles of Great Danes we had to deal with after those Scooby-Doo films came out." While Noonan is busy putting down "whatever isn't cute anymore," the seeds for seasons yet to come have already been planted, with American parents gearing up to hit the puppy mills later this year. "We could adopt a dog right now for free from the shelter, but I'm saving up to get my son a purebred dachshund from a breeder," Sandusky, OH–area contractor Richard Wilde said of an animal that will eventually be chained to a cinder block in his backyard and left behind when his family moves. "I should have just enough by Christmastime. Well, probably not for heartworm medication and neutering, but Tyler is just going to go nuts when he sees that little puppy." While animal shelter employees said they were relieved that dog-euthanasia season is over, many reported they were already preparing for the massive influx of Easter rabbits that will signal the transition from spring to summer. Improve your odds of a happy homecoming Still, it's not always a bad idea to bring home a dog for the holidays. In fact, for some families it's an ideal time to get a new pet, says San Francisco SPCA president Jan McHugh Smith. "The kids are on vacation for a couple weeks, and mom and dad are off from work," she says. "You have time to help the pet acclimate to her new home." But the key to making a Christmas puppy a successful gift is to do your research ahead of time. Many prospective adopters are completely unprepared, for instance, for the hard work of raising a puppy. So the first step is to know what you're getting into. (See if you're ready or not.) Another important step is to evaluate different breeds--and breed mixes--to get a sense of what type of dog best suits your personality and lifestyle. (Take DogTime's MatchUp to find out.) As Wilde points out, your puppy won't just be with you for Christmas Day; she's there for the rest of her life. So give yourself the time to make a wise choice--even if it means missing the December 25th deadline.
