Our Application Process is now OPEN!!
May 22, 2025 update: We would like to sincerely apologize to all of our followers for the lack of contact, posts & updates these past few months. Red Shadow Kennels experienced multiple losses over the past 6 months that took a very large toll on our family, our pack & our ability to function much of the time due to the pain. We needed to take a physical & emotional break to get through this difficult time. Unfortunately, soon after this we were getting ready for an elective, yet major surgery I had planned in early April. This once again took me away from managing Red Shadow due to the severity of my operation & how long the recovery has been and still will be.**We are now working hard to get could up on Months of inquires, messages & updates. **
Current Litter(s) Plan: 
1.) Mid-June 2025 Litter – OPEN: We are excited to announce we have confirmed pregnancy due mid-June and are now working on applications for these puppies. All our puppies & this breed, require active families committed to giving the breed the job/ mental stimulation they require.
2.) Late 2025 Litter(s): We will be starting to plan litter(s) for late 2025/ early 2026 later this year, as we have a number of up and coming younger dogs that will be entering our program once completed all their health requirements/ clearances, titles, & age requirements. While nothing is confirmed yet, we encourage families to keep following us on Facebook & Instagram for more information once we do know more. **At this time, we can’t approve/ accept applications for these litters due to how early it is and due to us not having set plans yet, we will be encouraging families to apply in the fall of 2025**
Please make sure you have reviewed our website fully before sending us a message through the “Contact Us” Page to request our full puppy package 🙂
AMERICAN FAMILIES: For families in the US, we are sad to say that in the 13 years of our kennel, this is the first time we have had to decline families across the border due to the new CDC Rules effective August 1st, 2024. The main rule being put in place is that “all dogs must be 6 months of age to cross the border”. We are deviated by this and hopeful these new rules will be changes, thrown out or given exemptions in the coming months/ year as their is a lot of Animal organizations fighting to change these inconsiderate rules that have put a great amount of stress & harm on the dog communities. As soon as we know more, we will be posting it & will be 100% accepting families located in the US again! We just hope this changes are short and temporary.
Before Contacting: Please make sure you have read over our website.
Discuss puppy ownership with your family and make sure all are on board.
When you do get an application, be thorough when completing it. Personalize it. Each question we ask has a purpose so dig a bit deeper with your answers.
Remember, we love our puppies a lot…really a lot…Your application is your chance to tell how you are going to get these dogs we love live their very best lives in your care.
We value people who want to learn as much as we value existing knowledge so don’t be afraid to let us know in the application where you want to learn more. We are looking for people who share our love of this breed, want to learn (along with us!) more about dog care and are into exercise, training or living a dog-centric life.
We do take into account the level of commitment, time and thoroughness that families are putting into applying.
All Red Shadow puppies are raised in a family setting. They will have exposure to other dogs, cats, and children. We also provide an accelerated stimulation program where puppies are exposed to a wide variety of sights, smells, tastes and textures in order to develop tolerance, courage and a healthy curiosity of the world.
Red Shadow puppies are available to their fur-ever homes at 10 weeks of age.
