Appa’s Big Adventure Begins

Our first puppy from the 2025 litter is off on a grand adventure! Sweet Appa is heading to Washington State, where he’ll have an important job guarding sheep, chickens, pigs — and three absolutely adorable children.

Deneil was so patient with me while I decided who to keep for our breeding program. She had her heart set on a boy, and I’m so grateful she waited for this special one.

It’s never easy to let them go, especially a pup as loving and bright as Appa, but knowing he’s heading to a wonderful family and a life full of purpose makes it a little easier. I have no doubt he’ll grow into a loyal guardian and have many great adventures ahead.

Safe travels, Appa — you’ve got big paws to fill and an even bigger heart to share. ❤️
