The goal at Riverview Acres is to breed for excellence. Litters are carefully planned to produce healthy and happy dogs. Currently we have one or two litters per year. Our puppies are raised in our home where they can be cared for not only by their mother, but also the rest of our clan. The puppies are loved and socialized by our entire family and friends bringing about independent, loving and self confident puppies.
Homes for our puppies are carefully screened. Puppies are either placed in show or pet homes. Puppies placed in pet homes as family pets come with a limited (non-breeding) AKC registration status and a spay/neuter contract. We maintain contact with everyone who purchases a puppy from us to ensure all questions are answered.
Since litters are carefully planned we may at times have a waiting list for puppies. A waiting period may be as short as a few months or longer than 18 months. This is still a very rare breed with a very limited number of breeders in this country. A non-refundable deposit of $250.00 is required to hold a puppy. If you don't want to wait we will always help you try to find another breeder or locate a puppy for you
.We believe that a puppy is a serious lifetime commitment, one that should not
be taken lightly. We subscribe to philosophy "If you don't rescue, don't breed".
We maintain a lifetime commitment to all puppies raised and sold by Riverview
Acres. If for any reason, you are not able to keep your companion for its entire
life, it ALWAYS has a home here.

Puppies range in price from $950.00 to $1,500.00 depending on the sex and age.
Puppy will be raised so as not to stifle his outgoing character.
Puppy will have only a minimum of obedience training until his championship is attained.
