| Aspen Veil Dams |
It takes much more than a well-established, nice stud to produce great puppies — the dams provide more to the foundation to a well-rounded puppy. Not only does she establish the baseline of physical health, she also initiates early socialization and life-long lessons with discipline, but also shows care and nurture to puppies while they're still vulnerable. Thus, Aspen Veil strives to have the best mothers possible to encourage growth and improvement in the breed overall, because the girls are the ones who contribute the most to a puppy. Just as with any of the males, the female will need her chance to shine and to prove herself in the conformation ring and performance sports based on her strengths, again, tapping into the historical versatility to maintain the breed standard. Stability in physical and mental health is an absolute must — before, during, and after a litter — to ensure overall healthy genetics and happy puppies.
