The good dogs behind every good dog

Gentle hearts. Sound bodies.

Our dogs are family first. They share our home, our trails, and the kind of easygoing nature we hope to pass on.

A thoughtful first eight weeks

Home is where the good start happens.

Our puppies are raised in the middle of everyday life—not a kennel—so the big world already feels a little familiar.

See if we’re a good fit

Early confidence

Early Neurological Stimulation, gentle handling, household sounds, and new textures from the start.

Good habits, begun

Crate introduction and potty training routines begin before your puppy leaves home.

Ready for the road home

Veterinary check, first age-appropriate vaccines, deworming, and a registered microchip.

Here for the long haul

Two-year written health guarantee, AKC registration, a familiar blanket, and a lifetime of breeder support.

The practical details

Good questions, answered.

What does a Cedar Hollow puppy cost?

Our puppies are $3,200. A $500 deposit is due only after your application is approved and is applied toward the total. The balance is due before go-home day.

Can we travel to meet and pick up our puppy?

Absolutely. We’re just outside Asheville, North Carolina, and welcome families to meet us by appointment. Families travel to us for pickup; we’re happy to help plan the drive and nearby stay.

When can puppies go home?

Puppies go home at eight weeks, after a vet check and the beginning of their early socialization and home routines. The fall litter’s go-home date is November 22, 2026.

How does the puppy selection process work?

After approval and a conversation, families rank their top three collar colors. We guide placements based on each puppy’s temperament and each family’s lifestyle.

Are your dogs health tested?

Yes. Both parents have documented OFA hips, elbows and heart clearances, current CAER eye exams, and PRA-prcd and ICH genetic results. Certificate details are listed above.
