Puppies

At Nordic Dreams White Swiss Shepherds, our goal is to provide families with exceptional puppies. We prioritize health, temperament, and adherence to the breed standard. This page is your guide to understanding our breeding program, the care and training we provide for our puppies, and what you can expect when bringing home a Nordic Dreams puppy.

What to Expect from a Nordic Dreams Puppy

Each puppy at Nordic Dreams is raised with love, care, and the utmost dedication to their well-being and development. Listed below is more about our puppies and breeding program.

  1. Three-Year Health Guarantee:

    We provide a three-year health guarantee against life-threatening genetic conditions and joint issues, such as hip and elbow dysplasia

  2. Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS):

    From an early age, we perform ENS exercises with each puppy. These simple exercises help improve their cardiovascular performance, stress tolerance, and resilience, laying the foundation for well-rounded, confident dogs.

  3. Puppy Culture Program:

    We follow the Puppy Culture program to ensure that your puppy has the best start in life. This program includes:

    • Socialization with people and other animals.

    • Introduction to basic problem-solving skills and confidence-building activities.

    • Introduction to common household noises, car rides, and other environments they might encounter in their new homes.

  4. Carefully planned breedings:

    Each litter is the result of tons of research into the pedigrees, health, and temperaments of the parents. We prioritize producing puppies with excellent physical and mental health. All our breeding dogs are CHIC health tested meaning that all recommended health testing is done on our breeding dogs.

  5. Raised in our home:

    • Our puppies are raised as part of our family in a clean, nurturing environment. They are exposed to a variety of sounds, textures, and experiences to help them adjust quickly to life with their new families.

What Comes with Your Puppy

Our puppies will be ready to go home at the age of 8 weeks old. When you bring home a Nordic Dreams puppy, you can expect:

  • Three year health guarantee

  • A health certificate from a licensed veterinarian

  • Age-appropriate vaccinations and deworming

  • FCPR and UKC registration

  • Microchip from ‘Home Again’

  • A detailed puppy care guide, including tips on training, socialization, and nutrition

  • A lifetime of breeder support—we’re always here to answer questions or provide guidance as your puppy grows

  • A go home basket that includes a leash, collar, toys, treats, bandana, a small bag of their current food.

Our Commitment to You and Your Puppy

Bringing home a puppy is a lifelong commitment, and we want you to feel confident every step of the way. We work closely with potential puppy owners to match them with the puppy best suited to their lifestyle and goals. Whether you’re looking for a loving companion or a dog to compete in conformation, agility, or other activities, we strive to make the perfect match by bringing in an outside temperament tester.

Preparing for Your Nordic Dreams Puppy

We require:

  • scheduling a veterinarian appointment within 72 hours of bringing your puppy home.

  • Researching high-quality diets to ensure your puppy grows strong and healthy.

  • Beginning positive reinforcement training early to foster a strong bond with your puppy

  • Continuing socialization and training to help your puppy reach its full potential. We highly recommend looking for a trainer in your area who uses a balanced training style.

Staying Connected

We love staying in touch with our puppy families! We encourage you to send updates, pictures, and stories as your Nordic Dreams puppy grows.
