Welcome!

We welcome you to Sunset Ridge Puppies! We are delighted to introduce you our parent dogs and any puppies that we currently have. It’s our goal to provide our customers with happy healthy puppies that are well adjusted socially. We also aim to treat each customer as we would want to be treated if we were in your shoes!

We have been raising puppies since 2005. The health and temperament of our dogs are important to us. We strive to provide you with hardy puppies who are smart and friendly. The parents are health checked yearly and we’ve also begun OFA testing hips and elbows. Puppies will come to you with a health certificate from our vet and will be up-to-date with vaccinations and dewormers. Each puppy has a microchip and dewclaws are removed. Our puppies are ready to leave our home when they are 8 weeks old or older. All puppies are sold on a pet basis only. If you’re looking for full registration, please contact us about this.

Our Process

We typically begin the choosing process by age 5-6 weeks with each litter of puppies. Those who have joined the waiting list by placing a $200 deposit will have priority to pick their puppy in the order we received their deposits. If you are on the waiting list and the color and/or gender that you prefer is no longer available when it’s your turn to choose, you may ask for your deposit to be rolled to the next litter where you’ll be higher on the list for a better chance to receive your dream puppy! The $200 deposit is considered non-refundable under most circumstances.

Once the waiting list has made their decisions about choosing or passing on the puppies, we open the availability to others outside the list. Continue to check our website as puppy prices will be reduced as they become older to help those on tighter budgets realize the opportunity to own a Shiba!

Our 6 children help with the daily chores of feeding, cleaning, and watering. Their favorite chore is to interact and play with the puppies to be sure they will be well socialized when meeting their new families. Our pups can testify to being cuddled in blankets, riding in the large Tonka dump truck, or strolling leisurely in the wagon or stroller. We feel it is invaluable for our children to learn responsibility and how to care for God’s creation.

We invite you to enjoy the puppies in person at our facility or, if that is impossible, to view them on our website. Learn to know their personalities and feel free to ask questions about them. We are excited for them to meet you! And we are delighted to help you find the right fit for your family situation.

Frosty is doing great she is very smart and is doing good with the children. We already are taking training classes and she is progressing very well.

The vet checkup went great and she is acclimating well to her new environment. You guys did a great job she is a sweet heart and is friendly to everyone. You did great at socializing her and I know that is no small task.

Amazing breeder! They do a very good job in making sure those adopting their puppies are well informed and what to expect (for us a Shiba Inu). On top of that, they make sure their puppies are well prepared for a new home. They are house/potty trained.

Hey Katrina I'd just like to thank you again, Maru is doing great and doing well in the city! I'm so happy you listed me as a reference as well. I'm more than happy to continue being one.

We couldn’t be more pleased with our experience at Sunset Ridge Puppies and the incredible lifelong family dog we now have. As first-time Shiba Inu owners, we were pleasantly surprised by how calm, loving and good-natured our Niko is.

Jennifer

We got our red male pup last July and he has been a wonderful boy. He is very easy to handle, not sensitive about being touched at all, and we assume it’s from the early neurological stimulation that was done. He is so smart, pretty easy to train and sweet

Carrie

Sunset Ridge Puppies was excellent to work with responded with photos and videos when I asked. I picked up KoHe and drove hours home and she was a perfect angel. She has been with me for 2 1/2 weeks and no accidents in the house and is happy in her crate.
