Health Care & Guarantee for Our Puppies

The health of every puppy we raise matters to us from the very beginning. Bringing a puppy home is a big decision. You want to know that your new companion has been well cared for, properly checked, and given the best possible start before joining your family. At Little Paws Angels, we take that responsibility seriously.

Our puppies are raised in a home environment, surrounded by everyday family life, and we pay close attention to their wellbeing as they grow. We also believe in being open with families about the care their puppy has received, the records they will receive, and what our health guarantee means. Because a health guarantee should give you clarity and reassurance, not confusing small print.

To ensure our puppies inherit sound genetics, our parent dogs undergo breed-specific health screening recognized by the British Veterinary Association (BVA) and The Kennel Club.

The health of every puppy we raise matters to us from the very beginning. Bringing a puppy home is a life-changing decision, and you want complete certainty that your new family member has been well cared for, thoroughly checked, and given the absolute best start in life. At Little Paws Angels, we take that responsibility to heart.

Our puppies are lovingly raised right inside our Central London home, surrounded by everyday family life. Because we specialise in Toy Poodles, Cavapoos, and Cockapoos, we also pay special attention to their physical development and coat health. These companion breeds are naturally non-shedding or exceptionally low-shedding a trait we preserve through selective breeding now and going forward, making them ideal for families seeking hypoallergenic qualities.

We believe in complete openness about the health care your puppy receives, the documentation you will take home, and exactly what our Puppy Health Guarantee UK covers. A guarantee should give you clarity, confidence, and genuine reassurance never confusing small print.

Parent DNA & Genetic Testing Standards

Good health starts long before a litter is born. We clear our parent dogs of hereditary conditions recognized by the British Veterinary Association (BVA) and The Kennel Club to ensure these traits carry forward into every puppy.

How We Look After Your Puppy’s Wellbeing

Care isn’t just about vet visits it’s about daily attention. We monitor our puppies as they grow, keeping a close eye on their appetite, weight gain, coat quality, energy levels, and social interaction with our family and children.

+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|  1. NATURAL NON-SHEDDING COAT CARE                                                 |
|  Because our Toy Poodles, Cavapoos, and Cockapoos are naturally non-shedding or    |
|  low-shedding, we introduce gentle grooming routines early. From soft brushing     |
|  to paw handling, their coats are kept healthy and ready for family life.          |
|                                                                                    |
|  2. FAMILY SOCIALISATION & STABILITY                                               |
|  Being raised in our main living area means our puppies grow up accustomed to      |
|  vacuum cleaners, background noise, laughter, and daily human touch. This calm     |
|  environment supports a robust immune system and balanced emotional health.        |
|                                                                                    |
|  3. INDIVIDUAL DEVELOPMENT & MONITORING                                            |
|  Every puppy develops at their own rhythm. We track individual milestones to       |
|  ensure they are eating well, playing confidently, and gaining steady weight       |
|  before they move on to their new homes.                                           |

UK Healthcare Completed Before Going Home

Before any puppy leaves us at eight weeks old, their core preventative care is completed by a qualified UK veterinary surgeon and documented for your peace of mind.

• Full Physical Examination: Inspection of heart sounds, hips, joints, eyes, ears, skin, palate, and hernia checks.
• Core UK Vaccination: Administered at 8 weeks (Nobivac DHPPi / Lepto) with an official UK Vaccination Card ready for your vet’s second dose.
• Microchipping: Fully registered on a compliant database in line with UK Microchipping Regulations.
• Parasite Prevention: Scheduled worming at 2, 5, and 8 weeks using UK vet-approved products, plus preventive flea treatment.

Our Clear Puppy Health Guarantee UK

We stand behind every puppy we raise with a clear, honest agreement that protects both you and your new companion. No breeder can promise a living animal will never catch a cold or experience a minor bug, but we can promise total accountability and support.

|  7-DAY VETERINARY CHECK WINDOW                                                     |
|  We ask you to book a routine registration check with your own UK vet within 7     |
|  days of bringing your puppy home. If your vet diagnoses a pre-existing medical    |
|  issue present before departure, you may return the puppy for a full refund or     |
|  exchange upon receipt of a formal veterinary report.                              |
|                                                                                    |
|  12-MONTH HEREDITARY COVERAGE                                                      |
|  In the unlikely event that a licensed UK vet diagnoses a severe, life-threatening |
|  inherited condition covered by our parent DNA screening within their first year,  |
|  our Puppy Health Guarantee UK provides financial contribution toward treatment    |
|  or the option of a replacement puppy.                                             |
