Please contact us to learn more about our upcoming litter plans for 2012. Renaissance Coton de Tulear puppies are usually reserved before they are born.
We take breeding very seriously and don't breed litters just to have puppies without securing a few homes in advance. This is the only ethical thing to do as a breeder. Beware of breeders that are having litter after litter and are not securing their puppies future forever homes first. If you see that they have older puppies that are not spoken for, and are still expecting more litters, this is a red flag.
We health test all of our breeding dogs, and you can find these results on the OFA and CERF websites, or ask us and we will send you the link. You should be asking your breeder if they are experienced and if they have kept up to date on the health of their puppies over the years. How many litters have they had? It's important that you seek out an experienced breeder. A breeder that takes their dogs to shows to see what Cotons "should" look like. Otherwise, they are most likely kennel blind. If we didn't attend the AACDT national specialty in NJ a few years ago, of which I was a founder of, we would have never spotted Kazaam. Kazaam was running back and forth in a fellow breeder's hotel room and up until that time, we have never seen a dog move with such ease. He is producing himself beautifully and we would like to thank Valerie Ford of Cotonnelle Cotons for such a beautiful boy. You cannot imagine how many Cotons are out there with level toplines, bad tailsets, too large, etc. Sadly, these dogs are being bred.
