Puppy Health Care- Shots and Dewormings kept up to date
 

We keep all our puppies current on their shots and dewormings, and will send home their health folder with their new family so that when they go in for their booster (if needed) the vet can see exactly what they've had.  After the puppy booster shots in the series of 4 are completed, your pup will just need their rabies shot done in your name when old enough and a yearly booster shot, when they turn 1yr old.

Since worms are a common occurance that can be picked up very easily by pets, new puppy owners must be responsible for continuing the de-worming routine. This is a routine done every 2 weeks for puppies and is easy for new puppy parents to do until the vet puts them on a once a month pill. Simply pickup your puppy's own bottle of dewormer from Petsmart or order one online (which saves over retail pricing in the store- please use our links on the ahead suggested items page so we get credit - good brands are Evict DS, Nemex II or Strongid) and give your puppy their routine oral dose yourself with a syringe to ensure anything new that is picked up & matured is passed from their system. They like the taste, and this helps you keep from needing that done at the vet's office, saving considerably by doing it for your puppy yourself.

 If you see what looks like spaghetti in their stools, don't worry- that means your dewormer worked and that's how they are passed!

Contacting Our Family about Adoption:

We choose to devote our time to our beagles, which is why we have gathered detailed information from our years of experience here for our interested families to take their time learning about our family, our mission in handraising companion beagles for approved homes, and all the helpful details about our beagles, colors, sizes, happy families stories, and more, to help families fully understand the time and devotion that has been put into their new family member from day1.

We likewise want to learn about the families who come to us in hopes of adding one of our babies to their lives. Emailing is our prefferred method of communication, as this not only allow us the ability to better focus on our babies and responsibilities around sunshine acres, but also allows us the ability to keep track of families' details and preferences in order to further help make the right matches happen! Phone Calls from interested customers across the nation would interrupt our work here to much for us to trully devote ourselves to our beagles. When time is available, we can choose to sit down and review potential families details together, discussing possibilites, and replying when time allows- if something comes up we can easily get up and take care of whatever is needed here, and return to writing back when time is appropriate. Being in the middle of a phone call would hinder our awareness & ability to respond to what is going on around Sunshine Acres, so as a family we have chosen not to provide our phone number to the public so as to not only have a private family life, but to be able to devote ourselves to the care of the newborns and other responsibilities that we have here at home.
Emailing is our prefferred communication,
 and allows us to devote our time appropriately, focusing our care on our babies, and reviewing & keeping track of our families' details in order to see the right matches happen!

We put the care of our babies first and foremost, meanwhile offering the joy we have found in our unique companion pets to sincere, patient, and understanding families across America who trully appreciate our values and where we are coming from as a family- those who would want us to devote our time & attentionto our babies first, are the families we would want to adopt our babies to responsibly raise and enjoy for the years to come, sending updates and pictures as they become a part of our Happy Sunshine Acres Family!

Different preference lines often become satisfied, as everyone has their own unique preferences! The different puppy preferences you may favor are pictured & detailed here: Colors, Sizes & Prices

If there is anyone in line ready for this current timeframe, we will first offer our puppies to those matching pre-approved folks. They can choose to claim a matching puppy, or pass & continue waiting for a future match/ timeframe. We announce any available puppies after we know the Waiting List's status (Which at the moment, those in line are waiting for the October timeframe, so we do have available puppies now!)

Our Waiting List Lines can change quickly, as pre-approved families may choose to:

• Claim a matching puppy,

• Pass on Current puppies, and choose to wait on their turn for a Future Timeframe/matching puppy.

• Change or expand their puppy preference options at any time (Genders/Colors/Sizes/sometimes facial markings/timeframes etc.) 

To hold a spot in the claiming process, most folks like to go ahead & get themselves pre-approved & join the Waiting List. Often folks can get preapproved and join now, & bring home their very own darling soon, depending on the options they were open to!

 If you are planning ahead, you are always welcome to seek pre-approval ahead of time to help ensure everything works out perfectly when the time comes to find, claim, and raise your new baby beagle puppy! People are always welcome to stay on the waiting list for as long as they wish, until everything works out perfectly!

Let us know if you'd like to get yourself (& any human or pet family members!) pre-approved to choose & adopt your own matching sunshine acres baby.  Tell us about our baby's potential homelife there with you so we can feel comfortable in considering you as a good pet-home & Appoving your household for the adopton of one of our babies! Also let us know what characteristics you'd love in your very own companion beagle, and If you are ready and smitten with an Available puppy, feel free to also ask about placing a deposit in order to claim one of your favorites to hold off the market till homecoming day!

Review our details so that once you are ready to take the next step you can sincerely tell us about yourself and desire for one of our babies!  ,  Also see more about the Deposit to join the Waiting List & to Claim your own Sunshine Acres Beagle Puppy!

Its works out beautifully when folks are able to plan ahead and seek our pre-approval to adopt one of our babies. When the time is right we then begin offering their preferred matches as it becomes their turn for different preference lines. By joining ahead of time, they held their spot in line ahead of time and are ahead of others in the claiming process. Sometimes people pass due to timeframes or specific desires, so the line is open to change at any time, making it possible for folks to join and be offered a chance to claim right away, or pass and continue waiting for a future turn to claim their very own matching Sunshine Acres Babies!  

 It's perfectly fine to hold your spot in line for the future! If you'll need to wait a couple weeks, months, or more for a puppy to enter your home, ask about getting pre-approved for the waiting list. Often folks like to  join the waiting list ahead of time to hold their position in the claiming process. They can then wait as long as desired, and may look forward to current or younger babies, expected litters, &/ Or  future puppies. They can choose to claim a puppy at their turn(s) if everything works out, or pass & continue waiting for any reason.

Tell us a about your preferred timeframe and more about yourself & one of our babies' potential home life there in your household, so that we can consider you as a good puppy home, and begin an adoptive relationship, working with you to successfully find and add the right match for your approved companion pet home!

• Why letting us know about your Matching Timeframe matters to us:

  • We ask that folks let us know ahead of time as to whether a puppy's time to come home works for them, before we can consider the puppy as a possible match available to them. Knowing this allows us to properly devote our energy towards making the appropriate match for a current puppy with the appropriate family who is ready for the puppy at the right time, and others may join the waiting list to find their own matches; Then everyone can proceed in making plans for their puppy's homecoming.
         At this stage in the puppies' development, it is the easiest time to take the role of leader and directly guide your learning beagle's state of mind into a responsible member of your unique human-dog pack. As Cesar Millan, the Dog Whisperer explains, everything you do, even subconsciously, influences a dog's state of mind. You must remember to encourage/nuture the correct state of mind, and to be careful to not accidentally nurture/encourage the Wrong state of mind. We know it's easy to forget and simply spoil your puppy, but its more important to consistently do what is best for your puppy's learning process and development, by responding correctly to their behaviors and being patient & consistent so that the correct state of mind sticks and only positive are habits are allowed to form.
     Our puppies are very attentive to humans, and at a young stage we have found it to be the easiest time for new families to make the biggest impression on their lifelong companion pet's behaviors.  
         We prefer for the learning puppy to enter their forever home during the appropriate time for that particular litter. This is when they are at an impressionable stage and can begin adapting to your household & discovering your pack's order, form working routines there with you, and learn how to fit in best as a member of your pack! We usually prefer for folks to not have to do an extended boarding here where we have to keep a puppy on here for someone, where they miss what we think is just the most enjoyable stage when the puppy is still small & infant like, looking to you for all their guidance and bonding in order to become your unique lifelong companion.

Once on the Waiting List- what's the next step?

Once you've made the commitment to join our sunshine acres beagle family, feel free to explore our exclusive pages for extra details and advice as your prepare for your new family member! Everyone in the family can start reviewing our puppy Guidance pages so you will know how to be consistent in leading the way from Day 1 for a successful puppy addition & adaptation.

Keeping an eye on this page and what's going on around here is a great idea since things can change quickly, and this is how we as a family choose to update all of our addicted puppy followers together and more thoroughly, vs writing info to each and every viewer individually. The website allows us to go in much more detail for everyone's benefit, in between focusing our time on our babies!

You are always welcome to chime in if one of our cuties has caught your eye, and you would be ready for their homecoming timeframe!  Even if they didn't match the original preferences you had expressed an interest in, we understand that with all the unique and beautiful characteristics our babies have, folks may always discover their admiration of an additional option! Let us know if another preference option would be equally loved by you! Then when we see a possibility for you to claim that puppy, we know you'd be interested!
 If you find yourself smitten with a current puppy you can let us know!

If you find that any of your preferences expand or change, you can always email me with an update so I can continue to offer good matches for you to consider! We love seeing everything work out for everyone, & we like to consider the best possible matches for each of our babies. This is why we have developed our unique waiting list process for families Pre-Approved.

Planning Ahead & Keeping up with your matches helps!  Consider whether your preferred timing for a puppy to come home matches the best time frame/week stated for each litter to enter their new homes. Then if a puppy becomes available as a good match for you,  you're family would have already thought about whether you'd be ready for them and who you would be interested in adding to your household!  Thinking ahead & letting us know helps move along the claiming process.

If you're not Ready for a Puppy During these babies' Homecoming Timeframe, Let us know about your future plans for a Beagle Puppy! Feel free to send us timeframe updates, and continue checking out our Upcoming Mommies to get an idea of near future possiblilities.

Don't forget our Puppy Guidance Pages as you prepare for your new addition to your life!

After a litter has been claimed by pre-approved homes, families continue to check in and watch for updates as their puppy grows and becomes ready to begin bonding! In the meanwhile, many folks like to send along a care package for their new family member to enjoy here and take home some familiar toys/blanky/bed on homecoming day! Once homecoming day arrives, we meet with the new forever family and help them add their new addition to the family!
