Teddy Bear Puppies Available!

I met my now husband, Scott, three years ago, and about a year into our relationship we started the search for our dogter, Chandler. We live in New York City, but weren't getting good vibes from any of the East Coast breeders we communicated with. Scott's parents have a home in Bend, OR, and are huge animal lovers, and his mom, Cathie, jumped at the chance to help us find our perfect breeder. When someone mentioned Maia to her, Cathie immediately called her to learn more. Cathie even went to see her facility. It was comforting to know that Maia was so accessible and straightforward with her potential customers. As soon as we placed a deposit on a litter, Maia sent us a card and a book on how to raise a puppy. She kept us completely informed on Kaya's (Chandler's mom) pregnancy progress and answered our check-in emails almost immediately. When our pup, Chandler, was born, she sent multiple photos and updates on her development and personality. We got videos of her opening her eyes for the first time, her learning how to walk, and her completely buried in the food bowl. Scott's family went to visit Cahndler when she was four weeks old and they Facetimed us and sent videos and photos of our chunky girl. We weren't able to pick Chandler up until she was eight weeks old, but by then, thanks to Maia's updates, we felt like we knew her. Scott and I were first-time pup parents, and we certainly had a TON of questions along the way. I texted, emailed, and called Maia often during the first few months of Chandler's life. Some of my questions, I now realize, were ridiculous! Regardless, Maia responded to all of them with her tips and expertise. We just celebrated Chandler's first birthday, and about a month before that, Chandler walked down the aisle wearing a flower collar during our wedding. We are so in love with our Chandler. She is absolutely gorgeous and perfectly healthy, but even better than that, she has the biggest personality. She's incredibly sweet and quirky and has a huge heart. She makes every person she passes on her walks smile. We've had so many people tell us that there's something different about Chandler, something special. Obviously we're biased, but we firmly believe it. Chan is such a social girl, and we want her to have a sibling soon. We know we'll be going to Maia for that without a doubt. We can't thank Maia enough for bringing Chandler into our lives.
