Kiva

Wolf Sable

Kiva. Oh you fierce bow-wow you. My mother had asked only a single female red and rust dobie pupas a stud fee once upon a time, and this time I was hoping hoping hoping for a female wolf sable to pop up. The father had the potential, mother was a mystery. Just like what happened to my mom decades ago, only one female wolf sable turned up in this big rainbow litter. Unfortunately she is extra spicy and jazzy, fiesty and testy. Just my kind of dog. (Ironic given my goals are mild, flexible dogs.)

Temperament heat

Spice Level

5.5 / 10

How “spicy,” or hot, a pup’s temper is, with 1 being cool as a cucumber and 10 being like hand-grabbing a growling Chihuahua on its back.

0.5: It rarely moves, mostly stares at things, plays gently on its back, and makes soft, infrequent noises from a distance. Laid back, not skittish.

Early temperament

Observations, not promises

Personality notes

Kiva is something special. She's always zipping around like a race dog, the second best mover in the litter after star. Sublime. She loves to use her teeth as an answer to any question. Love? Teeth. Upset? Teeth + noise. Scared? Staring + teeth. Her attention for handling requires her to be motivated but don't worry, she's already under the car so it's probably not necessary to consider at the moment. My intent is to test her against common GSD diciplines to see if she wouldn't be a fine project dog towards a non-family focussed line.

Dairy notice

We do not feed yogurt, ice cream, or cheese to puppies under the age of 8 months. They do receive 1% milk while less than a month old, in small amounts blended with their veterinary-approved supplement. Most dogs are lactose intolerant at a threshold, but their dam, Robin, is highly intolerant of any kind of dairy, so be aware her pups may also not be your ice-cream pup-cup gobblers. Do NOT obey the cheese tax! :)

Care & placement

Current status

Active preventative medications

Heart Guard — heartworm prevention

Vaccinations

None. This litter is priced to sell; the responsibility falls on the buyer in exchange for a significant reduction in cost. Puppies that age up in our care are vaccinated and spayed or neutered if they are not breeding prospects, and they continue to be socialized and trained for home life.

Registration

Eligible after parent DNA testing, but priced as family pets, not breeding prospects. If the buyer wishes to register for breeding purposes, I am fully cooperative in the process at the original listed price point. No breeding fee or spay/neuter contracts for this litter.

Microchipped

No

Return to breeder policy

This litter has no breeder contract requiring you to return the dog if you need to rehome them, but we are willing to take them back at any life stage should your situation require emergency or urgent homing for any reason and we are able. All returns are final.
