Why should you consider an older puppy or a retired
mother from the Siess Ranch?
All the SIESS RANCH puppies are handled from the moment
they are born. Giving them the socialization and care they need
to survive and thrive!
Unlike many breeders we do not always let our puppies
leave at the traditional 8 weeks of age. We feel there are just
to many things that can go wrong at this age. The puppies health
is our first priority. All bulldog puppies easily catch colds and
it is more common with the ages right after they are weaned till
they are acclimated with changing temps.
We start all our puppies on NuVet Vitamins as soon as they start
eating solid food. This supplement is sprinkled on their food until
they are old enough to start eating it as a treat. Sometimes it
is about the 10 week age before they take these tablets as treats.
We most generally like to see our puppies up to 10 lbs
or more before they leave here. Often this is the 9-10 week age.
Our routine here is to keep them with our mothers until the 6 week
age then we start their immuzations. Until they have had their first
round of immuzations we do keep them isolated to our welping nursery
with routine trips to the play/photo area where they are not around
our other dogs.
A few days after their first immuzation they are exposed to our
playroom in the house. (only if they are not showing any signs of
colds or running stools) Puppies are a lot like children and when
one catches a cold it usually spreads to everyone here. So we keep
a close eye on them to avoid any outbreaks.
Normally at the 8-10 week age is just the start of the time when
we work on potty training and individual crate training. Naturally
we cannot have all our puppies in our house all the time so we do
work with different age groups at a time. And if an individual puppy
is flying or leaving in a few days we do work with them to get them
comforable in their own crate by themselves.
It is our experience that bulldog puppies can get sick from just
stress. So by following our schedule of gradually exposing our puppies
to different environments with slight changes in temps helps to
keep them healthy when they leave here.
We welcome any questions you may have about adopting a bulldog puppy
or a retired mother. So please email or call 785-336-2563. I do
have to say that picking up the phone is much easier for us and
gets immediate attention. We do not mind your phone calls and if
we are unavailable we can certainly call you back.
Thank you, Richard and Beth
