No — we do not place our puppies outside of the United States.

While we’re honored that families from around the world inquire about our puppies, our priority is keeping every Homegrown Heartmender close enough for us to fulfill the promise we make to them for life.

🤎 Our puppies are raised with intention, connection, and a lifetime guarantee of support. Keeping them within the U.S. allows us to:

✔️Be available if a family ever needs guidance, help, or reassurance.

✔️Act quickly if a puppy ever needs to come back to us.

✔️Ensure safe, low-stress travel during transitions.

✔️Honor our return-to-breeder contract without international barriers or delays.

🤎If a family can no longer keep their dog — whether at 6 months or 6 years — they must return the puppy to us, no questions asked and absolutely no judgment. We take that responsibility seriously.  Because of that commitment, we only place puppies within the United States where we can always step in, intervene, and welcome them home if needed.

🤎Every puppy we raise leaves with a piece of our heart — and we intend to stay close enough to protect that piece for life.
