Why Ethical Breeding Costs More

Ethical breeding requires significant time, resources, and long-term commitment.

Lower-priced puppies often reflect shortcuts— limited health testing, high-volume breeding, minimal early development, and a lack of lifelong responsibility for the dogs produced.

At Brooks Haven Homestead, our pricing supports:

1. Preventative health care rather than reactive treatment

2. Intentional, limited litters rather than volume breeding

3. Early neurological and emotional development

4. Independent temperament evaluation for better family matches

5. Ongoing care for breeding and retired dogs

6. A lifetime commitment to every puppy we raise

We believe the true cost of ethical breeding is an investment in health, temperament, and lifelong well-being.
