To our customers,
Life at Eshabeta II
Puppies born at Eshabeta II are born in the main house and live there until they are approximately 3 weeks old. At that time puppies and mother go outside where they live in a large covered run, with their own heated building. Puppies are turned loose every day to socialize. The property which Eshabeta II is located on is totally fenced, therefore the pups are protected at all times, they never see or feel a car go by, see no strangers and experience no "city" noise. There are no children here so when the puppies come into the house in groups or by themselves adults are all they see and interact with. Eshabeta II gives the puppies a quiet start in life.
If you have children or other pets the interaction between the new puppy and children/pets must be monitored. Well meaning children can over traumatize or due bodily harm to a puppy, other pets can also be the same way. This puppy has no defense against harm except you, so needs your adult supervision until at least 6 months of age. Remember this is a baby and needs special attention no different than a human baby.
PLEASE REMEMBER - that when your puppy comes to your house, everything is new, different, and possibly frightening for the puppy. Introduce new experiences slowly, do not overwhelm your puppy, and do not rush your puppy into accepting its new life all at once. Example: once your puppy’s shots are complete at 16 weeks, you and the puppy go for a walk and a car passes and you notice that the pup seems nervous or frightened. Do not become upset with your pup, there is nothing wrong except the pup has never experienced the sound, smell, motion and feel. A puppy can feel the vibration of the car even if you cannot. Show your pup by taking this new experience confidently that this is nothing abnormal or frightening. Give your puppy time to build trust in you. This puppy has just been taken away from everything and everyone it knows, taken a scary plane ride, and while you are excited, happy, and thrilled to have your new puppy, he or she should take it slowly at first.
