La PouponnièrePuppies
Alongside the spa, Jenny raises and places a handful of puppies each year. Not a kennel, not a volume operation — a house with six dogs in it where a litter is an event, not a product line.
Most people who ask about our puppies did not come looking for a breeder. They came in with a dog for a groom, saw a puppy asleep behind the counter, and asked a question. That is genuinely how nearly every one of these placements has happened for twenty-five years, and it is why there is no waiting-list machinery, no application portal, and no marketing funnel on this page.
What there is: a phone number, a person who will tell you the truth about whether a breed suits your life, and — sometimes — a puppy. Sometimes there is nothing available for months. We would rather tell you that than find you something.
If you want the honest short version of what people say about it, read the Google reviews. Several of them are from families who bought a puppy here years ago and are still bringing that same dog in for grooming.
“I have always had dogs, cats and other animals — but that is not enough. Anytime one of our pets is not around, there’s an empty feeling inside.”

La MéthodeHow it works
01
Élevés à la maison
Puppies are raised underfoot — in a house with six adult dogs, a working spa next door, and people coming and going all day. That is not a marketing line, it is the single biggest predictor of how a puppy behaves at eight months old. A puppy who has already heard a blow dryer, a vacuum, a doorbell and a room full of strangers does not fall apart the first time life gets loud.
02
Propreté
Every puppy goes home already using a pad. It does not make house-training finished — nothing does — but it means the concept is installed, and most families report the transition to outdoors takes days rather than weeks. You will be told exactly what pad, what schedule and what food the puppy is already on, so you can change one thing at a time instead of all of them at once.
03
La santé
Puppies are examined by a licensed veterinarian and are current on the vaccinations and deworming appropriate to their age at the time they go home. You receive the record. We will tell you what has been done, what is still due, and when — and we would rather you take that paperwork to your own vet in the first week than take our word for it.
04
La rencontre
No deposits on a photograph, no shipping a puppy to a stranger, no meeting in a parking lot. You come to 8739 Stirling Road, you sit on the floor, and you meet the puppy and the people who raised it. If it is not the right match, that is a perfectly good outcome and nobody will pressure you. A puppy is fifteen years — an afternoon of certainty is cheap.
05
Pour la vie
Families who get a puppy here tend to come back for grooming, which means we watch these dogs grow up on the table for the next decade and a half. Call when the first adult coat blows and you do not know what is happening. Call when you are not sure whether a limp matters. That access is the part nobody puts on a price list, and it is the part that lasts.
Vos QuestionsAsk us anything
Ask us all of them. Ask the next place too — and compare how comfortable each answer sounds. A breeder who is doing this properly will not flinch at a single one of these.
DisponibilitéWhat’s available
Deliberately. A photograph on a website is how people end up attached to a puppy before they have worked out whether the breed fits their apartment, their allergies, their hours or their budget — and it is how the wrong dog goes to the right family.
So: call the spa, or send a message on Instagram, and tell us what your life actually looks like. Whether there are children. Whether anyone is home during the day. Whether you have honestly costed out a coat that needs professional grooming every six weeks. We will tell you what is here, what is coming, and — quite often — that you should wait.
Availability changes constantly and is never guaranteed. Everything on this page describes how we place puppies — it is not an offer of sale, and nothing here is a health guarantee. Ask us directly and you’ll get a direct answer.
