Welcome to the Healthy Pups Family. 

BREAKING NEWSWe specialize in sweeter, smarter, easier to house train small breeds that are not often available at shelters. In buying our pups you are now MARKED SAFE from
  • Paying more than necessary. $AVE+. Buy a puppy now through Christmas shopping for off season prices.  Save $600.00+ by choosing a parvo proof pup with 4 vaccines already done. Skip at least 2 vet visits that a younger puppy may still need. A 3 month pup is a great choice for crate training while you go to work or class.
  • MISINFORMATION. Many are deceived to believe they don't have time to bring home a puppy because other things are happening in their lives, but they don't think twice about having time to own the dog while vacations and classes recur in upcoming years. Anyone who has time to own a dog can manage properly and have time to bring home a puppy.  
  • Also, it is important to remember that male puppies neutered at the proper time are no more likely to raise and mark than females are to tinkle because female are often less confident. We often get feed back from ladies who are disappointed that the female puppy they bought for themselves likes men instead of them:) Yes, you can afford a puppy. Playing with a puppy saves thousands over time as compared to being bored and going out for entertainment. Call for advice. Choose love.
  • REPRODUCTIVE BEHAVIORS in dogs not spayed and neutered are the greated reason that so many beloved house pets are eventually sent to shelters. Please spay/neuter your puppy. All breeding dogs should be kept in kennel facilities so they will not get evicted for marking and bleeding. You should not support home breeders who aren't willing to invest in a proper place to raise puppies where their adults will be safe. Also, a pup that's raised in our nursery on neutral surfaces hasn't already been pre-trained to pee in a floor like yours by a home breeder before it was old enough to crate train:)
  • A pup that begs for attention isn't hyper. It is sweet. The pup that is afraid is more intelligent and aware. The pup that shivers has just had a bath. The tiniest dog isn't just easier to carry, but may always need more help, even when you're busy. Our goal is that available now pups have had at least 2 vaccines before going home. The age of the pup determines how many vaccines have already been given. Choose a 10 wks or older puppy (when available) that has had 3 or more vaccines already done and $kip some vet visit$.  A 10 wk pup is strong enough to be crated and trained while you are at work or in class, will still bond with you quickly, is big enough to play with existing pets, can interact independently, get up and down without injuring itself, and can survive adaptive stress plus playing with your children. If you wait for a perfectly convenient time to get a puppy because you have upcoming vacations, medical procedures, etc, then you may never have a puppy. This is why God decides when we have children. If you have time to own a dog in the future, you do have time to train a puppy now. Call us for advice in making house training easy and convenient. Let therapeutic puppy love & free at home family entertainment savings begin today.
  • Unquestioned inexperienced no common sense veterinary fraud. We often save the lives of pets diagnosed w/terminal diseases or viruses when they were simply suffering from environmental/nutritional poisoning. Call for examples:) Our past experience can be important to your future.
  • Buying a broker, pet store, or club puppy from a nice storefront with an on-site vet that may have come from a puppy mill with inhumane living conditions. All pups on this website are on premises & raised in our nursery. You can visit their birthplace.
  • Retarded puppies with defects because their parents are cousins. We have learned that mixing the breeds to create diverse genetics reverses the damage caused by inbreeding, creates great intelligence, wonderful personalites, and almost eliminates genetic defects.
  • Deposit fraud. Many call us after sending online deposits to fake sellers who have no puppy. You can visit us and buy without placing a deposit.
  • After hours support that doesn't answer the phone. We have a 24 hr helpline & 40+ years experience to help with any puppy issue. 
  • Not being able to afford the unexpected vet bills that more often occur in home raised, brokered, or shelter puppies. 
  • OUR BUYERS (who choose puppies that are at or beyond the recommended age/size to go home) ARE PROTECTED by a return the puppy and skip initial vet bills warranty, plus a lifetime parvovirus strain B warranty (no pet insurance payments required) if you keep the vaccines updated. 
  • Pet store broker club fraud in which you make insurance payments or buy doggie treats for the next 10 years to not void your warranty.
  • Accidental not quarantined viral exposures before vaccines, and a new credit card at the emergency vet to finance monoclonal antibodies that still may not save your puppy from a surprise virus.
  • Fabricated histories and genetics of puppies as told by sellers who didn't raise them and know very little about them.
  • Broker name scams that suggest love. We let YOU name your puppy.
  • Buying a hard to house train home breeder/brokered puppy that has already been allowed/confused to potty in the floor. Our pups are raised on neutral surfaces w/no pads to be confused w/ your rug.
  • Fancy pedigreed show dogs with genetic defects, unbalanced personalities, and poor mental health due to cousins bred together.
  • Paying sales tax. Since we are a nursery who raises the puppies we sale, we are not required to pay sales tax.  
  • IMPORTANT. To know how big they are, watch the videos to see pups beside a 2 liter cola bottle.
  • Skip vet visits for puppy shots, reduce the potential for vaccine reactions, & know how big it will get by choosing a 3 months-up puppy.
  • The true value of a puppy is in the joy it brings, not in it's pedigree and cuteness. Our secret is careful selection of parents with diverse genetics. This is why so many of our buyers send their friends to buy puppies after telling them that this is the best dog I've ever had.   

We are professional grade, AND we gladly offer advice to help you decide what breed you might like best.  We have many hybrid mixes that make good substitutes for purebreds, that are not likely to have the health problems common in many purebreds. A Puggle is always healthier than a Pug.  A Frenchie mix is almost always healthier than a French bulldog.  We have many such mixes for those who think bulldoggy looking breeds are cute but wish they were healthier, smarter, cleaner, less heat sensitive, and more polite. Some of the purebred bulldogs are like living with a pig:). Tiny mixes are much less likely to have problems than purebred too small Yorkies or Maltese. You can also skip haircuts with some of these mixes by brushing with a Furminator, or other similar anti-shed comb to reduce shedding by up to 90%. Our alleriges link provides details for reversing your children's allergies so you don't necessarily need to choose a hypoallergenic breed. We are here to advise which breed is right for you. Give us a call.

NATIONWIDE SHIPPING is available.  We will work with any shipper of your choice if you want to have someone pick up your puppy here and drive it or fly it to your home anywhere in the continental United States.  We can refer you to courier services that ship to the local area, to charlotte Airport to meet flight nannies at the gate, or services that do ground-to-door delivery as far west as Texas and all of Eastern U.S.  TJ Martins of www.savannahcarriers.com does Eastern to Midwest U.S. at $1.00 mile from 3707 White Plains Rd, Roaring River, NC 28669 to your address. Simply ask your phone to get driving directions/distance from your place to ours and you will have a delivery estimate to your home. Phone for T.J. Martins ground to your door delivery is (646) 251-2549.  All fees to pet nannies and couriers are paid directly to them; not to Healthy Pups.

Come see us for the most experienced direct from breeder to family puppy experience. Let us share our more than 40 years experience and care standard to help protect your puplife. Our care standard is about prevention though better diet and not choosing bad pet products that can cause the premature onset of diseases. These diseases are almost always misdiagnosed by vets as genetic issues. It is sad that brokers are about scamming you with a 10 year warranty that covers very little and leaving you with monthly pet insurance payments for the next 10 years. Their 10 year warranty is from the pet insurance company; not from them. Yes, you can get puppy insurance on our puppies if you wish.  We can share the actual history and genetics of your puppy because we are the breeder, not a club or pet store broker group reselling a puppy that they did not raise.

Are we the only seller in top google search results that still raises the puppies that we sell? A high percentage of the independent puppies for sale ads online are fake sellers soliciting deposits for puppies that do not exist. Most of the real puppies online are being resold by brokers trying to make easy money. The puppy clubs and pet stores attract their buyers with add ons to make you think you're getting more. Some are so big that they can maintain a fancy clubhouse and have their own vet on staff. They smother you with professionalism and make you feel privileged just to be considered for one of their puppies. They comfort you by building a store that looks like your vets office. However, you should read and learn that their health warranty excludes almost every health issue and not making the insurance payments or buying their expensive doggie treats for the next 10 years voids your warranty. They brag about how good their elite professional breeders are. They tell you that they inspect their breeders and that they are government-inspected. Yes, they inspect their breeders when they go there to pick up a van load of puppies to resale in their store front. Inspections of these breeders rarely happen because there's no one to complain when the breeders do not sell directly to the public. Unfortunately, having a nice place to keep puppies is not a requirement for getting a government license to raise puppies. The only way to be sure a puppy didn't come from a backyard puppy mill is to buy your puppy directly from the breeder and see for yourself. If you saw the living conditions at some of the puppy farms that the brokers get their puppies from, would you still buy from them?

I have had the unique learning opportunity of working with the same group of dogs since 1982. This is something that not even our most experienced vets have been able to do. I have learned from the experiences of thousands of puppy buyers, and I am able to share these experiences, both good and bad, so your experience can be better. Buying from us means that I can help you to choose better pet products and avoid the ones that seem to have caused problems. I can also offer advice when a complex environmental issue may have been misdiagnosed as a genetic issue or rare disease by your vet. Our veterinary system has slowly evolved into kids who read tests and interpret them with no common sense. The hardest thing I do is to help keep our buyers from getting scammed by vets. For example, there is no test for a virus. We only have tests that measure white cells and shed proteins, which can also be caused by environmental irritations and vaccine reactions. The user looks for abormal readings and ASSUMES this puppy may have a virus after evaluating symptoms, while the true cause may be a vaccine reaction that caused a severe giardia bloom, or eating a few blades of grass in the back yard. Grass and other environmental irritations can cause bloody diarrhea and the abnormal test results. We are here to help you 24 hrs per day so that you are less likely to become a victim of no common sense care givers. I can also help you to make good decisions in choosing a breed that is a good choice for you and not to become victims of what your small children think they want.

For example, almost every small child is in love with the idea of holding the puppy in their lap and carrying it around, so they are pre-programmed to want the tiniest and youngest puppy they can get. This situation is highly overrated and is the greatest cause of vet bills in our nation. The sad situation is that puppies grow to be a big as they will get in only a few weeks, assuming they don’t get a virus from going home before they are old enough to have had multiple vaccines already given and survive the handling stress of playing with your children. It is important that your puppy is old enough and strong enough to go home. Adult dogs that are too tiny very often do not live more than 5 years before they have liver and kidney failure. I have sold puppies to many families over the years that want their next dog to be larger than the last one so it will be healthier, live longer, and be able to interact more independently. This is why a small enough schnoodle is better than than many of the tiniest teacup breeds.

Most of the breeds we sell here are in the 5-25 lb size range. People who are attracted to indoor pets generally agree that the smallest one is the cutest. The childishness of people is easily the most difficult thing we deal with.  So many people only think of holding and carrying the tiniest puppy, but they never think of the dog jumping from their lap and killing itself when it hits the floor, being stolen by a bird when it goes outside to potty, being stepped on, having seizures, vaccine reactions, or finding it dead from sugar drop.  These things are considered normal in too tiny breeds and too young puppies.

Most also never consider the inconvenience of having a 3 lb handicapped dog that cannot interact independently.  If you choose a dog that is too tiny then accept that these things are much more likely to occur than in pets that are slightly larger!  A gallon of milk weighs almost 9 lbs.  If it were within my control, the word teacup would not be a part of dog language. A few of these teacup puppies will inherit genetics from ancestors and possibly grow more than 10 lbs.  Although the word teacup is an ambiguous description that means different things to different people, most people think a teacup dog is 10 lbs. and under. Remember that a gallon of milk weighs almost 9 lbs. when you read the weights of our puppies and their parents. This should give you some perspective when thinking of what size you want your next pet to be! Most children will love almost any puppy you take home to them. Make sure you help them choose a puppy that they will be able to love for a long time and doesn’t leave them with broken hearts and disappointments.

Also, another issue. We sell male puppies cheaper than females because more are born male, and we must overcome pre-programmed customer misconceptions. One of the most common complaints we have had through the years is from women who bought female puppies- she loves my Dad, husband, boyfriend, brother, more than me! NEWSFLASH, a male puppy neutered at the correct time is no more likely to raise the leg and mark than a female is to tinkle when she gets excited, because females are often less confident than males. Both males and females make great house pets if managed properly. You can buy a male cheaper. To neuter the male is cheaper than spaying the female. Both make exceptional indoor pets. However, if you are a female puppy shopper, you need to know that male puppies often love women more than female puppies!

Know that your new fur baby has been kept in our quarantine since birth because pups can get viruses, infections, and parasites from each other like our children at school!

It is normally perfectly safe for puppies to do life in a contaminated dirty outdoor environment after the vaccine schedule is completed, and after they're old enough to be given meds to prevent parasites. Experienced vets often tell people who have bought new puppies not to put them on the ground until the vaccine schedule is complete because it is possible to get a virus from an accidental exposure. Puppies raised in the unsterilizable homes, backyards, barns, etc., of breeders who don't have a quarantine facility are more likely to get viruses and parasites because they are not in a bio secure environment. For many years now, I have felt that vaccinated puppies were less healthy than non-vaccinated puppies. I have recently learned that most puppy vaccine reaction issues can be prevented with specific antihistamines correctly given at time of vaccination, and that too many adult dogs are now getting the new virus after insufficient puppy shots were done at minimum age. Vaccines given properly and with preventative meds to prevent vaccine reactions are highly effective in preventing viruses. We vaccinate 3 lbs. and over puppies at 6, 8, 10, 13, 16, and 20 weeks of age while in our care. Our puppies are a great value because the veterinary care alone that we provide might cost you more than the selling price of our puppies. If you adopted a free puppy and then went to the vet six times for wellness exams, worming, and shots, how much would you spend? If you adopt a puppy that gets a virus and you care enough to take it to the emergency vet, treatment at a hospital that doesn't deal fairly can be very expensive. Our quarantine facility is very important so your puppy is not exposed to a virus before the vaccines provide protection. It is also good that the disinfectant protocol in our nursery also kills worms and protozoa, so your puppy is much more likely to be free of parasites than puppies raised elsewhere. 100% of the puppy buyers at the emergency vet today thought a virus would not happen to them, and many are there because of vaccine reactions that created giardia blooms that were misdiagnosed as viruses.  Humans and other pets who go from place to place and come home to contact puppies without sterilizing their hands and clothing, plus flying insects moving viruses from place to place can infect puppies. Parvovirus Strain B has a 7 day incubation period. This means that puppies can be exposed to parvovirus prior to being vaccinated and still get sick, and some puppies will still get sick from accidental exposures until the puppy shot schedule is complete, after which viruses in puppies are very, very rare. Because we are experienced, confident in our care standard, and raise the puppies in strict quarantine with vaccines given carefully to not cause vaccine reactions, we are able to provide a parvovirus puppy replacement warranty AND a no unexpected initial vet bills warranty for most puppies. These warranties are specific to those buyers who will follow recommendations and instructions. If you read the warranties of online puppy sellers, you may find that we have no competition in this area. Buying a puppy from us means that at least two vaccines are already done before the puppy goes home with you! Our protocol means that 5 or 6 vaccines are given through the puppy shot schedule for puppies that remain in our care until those vaccines are due. It is sad that some adult dogs are dying later in life from the new virus probably because they were not given enough vaccines as puppies to produce a permanent immune response.

Not wanting to spend lots of money on a puppy is the very best reason to buy a Healthy Pup. No one wants unexpected vet bills or heartbroken children! To protect our puppies from viruses, and to reduce unexpected veterinary expenses for our puppy buyers, we will always raise the puppies in strict quarantine. Buyers may visit in person to see and interact with the puppies or view an individual puppy or a small group of puppies through video chat. If you can view the puppies through video chat and decide which puppy you want BEFORE you come, we can bathe your puppy, do its wellness exam, and fill out your paperwork so you don't have to wait when you come to pick up a puppy. Come without first telling us which one you want and you should be prepared to wait while we bathe the pup and make it ready to go home with you.

If you want to visit in person and play with puppies, please wear your old clothes. We may dress you in protective plastic clothing and disinfect you if you want to hold some of the younger puppies. Since viruses are highly contagious to other puppies, and because vaccinated puppies that show no clinical signs of illness can shed viruses that make non-vaccinated puppies sick, we will always raise the puppies in strict quarantine. 

What happens If you buy your puppy from a breeder group, club, shelter, or pet store? These folks resell and rehome puppies. Most of these puppies were raised on puppy farms, some of which you wouldn't buy from if you saw where they came from. If the broker takes his van to collect puppies at 12 different out of state puppy farms that own 100 dogs each and then throws them into a van together, then your puppy has already been exposed to the viruses, diseases, and parasites of 1200 dogs before you even bring it home. Also, If you buy your puppy from a breeder group, club, or pet store and cannot visit the birthplace of your puppy, then how can you really be sure you're not buying from a puppy mill? Can you even be sure that they know how big it might get?  Shouldn't your puppy be a Healthy Pup?

Buy a 3 month or older puppy and you may be able to skip at some vet visits because multiple vaccines may already be complete. You also are getting a puppy that should be beyond the age of expensive vaccine reactions and viruses when you choose a slightly older puppy. Some of these get left behind because the entire nation was doing beach vacations or childrens sports simultaneously and did not have time to bring home a puppy at that moment.

House training your puppy is also a good reason to know where your puppy came from, and that a home breeder with no kennel facility has not already accidentally pre-trained it to urinate in your floor by allowing it to potty on a floor that looks like yours. You are much less likely to have unforeseen expenses from the puppies we sell. Our knowledge has come through 40+ years of hands-on experience with the same group of dogs. Not even our senior vets have likely had this unique learning opportunity!

If you think our prices are too high, then you have not yet learned that free puppies are often NOT cheaper.

Call us BEFORE you're decieved by fake sellers seeking deposits, cleverly disguised broker pet stores with fake reviews, impressive facilities, and elaborate websites that are reselling backyard "5-star elite" puppies for a quick profit. Will you be conned into making unnecessary monthly insurance or other payments to not void your worthless 10 year warranty, or have unexpected vet bills from inexperienced caregivers?

Visit OUR FACILITY to learn why rescue organizations want you to believe that all breeders are a puppy mill, and that you should adopt and never shop. Yes, only 1% of those rescue donations go to shelters. Why doesn't the rescue industry use those billions in donations to spay/neuter the parents of these unwanted large breed mixes?  Because they make no money if they cure the problem. They are soon out of business if the donations don't keep flowing. The rescue money is being laundered, causing many people to not want to solve the problem because their hands are in the money pot. We think Grandma has a right to go out and buy the specific puppy she wants, and not be forced to adopt a shelter pitbull mix lap dog.  Go out and try to find a purebred Yorkie, Maltese, or specific mix at the shelter, and know that rescue idiots have already made it illegal to breed dogs in some states. We have a huge overpopulation of unwanted large breed mixes, and a huge shortage of small breed specific puppies, and puppies in general that have been cared for properly. If they make the cure illegal to continue collecting donations in the pet industry as in the cancer industry, soon purebred Yorkies and Maltese will not even exist in America. Don't listen to pet politics. Im not telling you to not adopt a shelter pet. This is a noble thing to do if you can find one you like. However, you should make sure it's old enough to likely not get a virus if you can't afford a big vet bill, and you should never donate to big rescue groups. Buy pet products and give them to your local shelter so you can be sure that the shelter pets will get your money. Stand up for your rights as a pet owner so you can continue to buy the breed and puppy you want, AND so you can continue to have a place to go and buy a quarantined, properly vaccinated, healthy puppy that's much less likely to break your heart and bank account. Breeders are NOT the reason that shelters are overflowing. It's not greedy breeders.  It's the rescue industry.
