Visiting Northbound

Can I visit your home?

I’m often asked whether interested puppy homes can visit in person. Unfortunately, this isn’t possible for several important reasons:

• I live in a regular home, not a kennel setup.

• My neighbours value their peace and quiet and are not comfortable with a constant stream of visitors and cars.

• My partner works from home and needs a quiet environment due to frequent Teams calls.

• I receive over 100 enquiries each year. If each person visited for just one hour, that would amount to over four full days of visitors. In reality, most visits last closer to two hours—meaning every weekend would be taken up entirely. Like everyone else, we need time to clean, shop, visit family, and enjoy our own lives.

Instead, I offer 1-hour Teams video calls, where I show you my home, garden, and dogs. This allows us to connect personally and gives you a good insight into how the puppies are raised.

In-person visits are reserved for the puppy choosing day/weekend for each litter. This ensures a calm, manageable environment for everyone involved—especially the puppies.

Thank you for understanding!
