Occasionally, we have retiring adult Mi-Kis available to the right home. It’s always a difficult decision to place our treasured companions into other families when they’ve been such a huge part of ours. We try to balance the needs of the Mi-Ki gene pool, our family, and the needs of the dogs. This means not over-breeding our Mi-Kis, not collecting too many, and allowing them to retire to a pampered life in a loving family where they aren’t competing with several other dogs for attention.
Mi-Kis usually live from 12-15 years of age. Adopting one of our adults or older puppies is less of a commitment for retirees who are looking for companionship or families hoping to skip potty training and the teething stage.
As family dogs, our adults are not accustomed to being in crates. They are fond of sleeping with humans, playing in the yard with supervision, regular walks, and being part of our lives. In short, our adult Mi-Kis are ready-made pets that will thrive with a bit of fine-tuning with training that they’ll be able to receive with more individualized care.
Royal T’s Hollywood Heston – DOB 6/7/25 – Retiring – Available after neutering
Heston has been a wonderful show dog for us. He has an easy-care coat and a gentle temperament. He can be a little reserved with strangers but is very loving with people he knows. Although his type and temperament are what we’re looking to produce in our program, we had some congenital defects in a couple of his trial litters, so we have decided to place him in a pet home.
Heston was trained to cloth potty pads as a puppy, however, he currently is wearing belly bands to prevent marking. He also uses an indoor grass patch. Once he is neutered and rehomed, he may be able to be house trained to the outdoors or an indoor potty station, or he may do best continuing to wear male wraps. We have not yet neutered him but plan to have him scheduled soon.
We’ve invested a lot into this gorgeous dog, and he’s only 1 year old. Skip the puppy phase with this ready-made pet! He’s being offered for our regular puppy price of $3,500 despite being fully vaccinated, having had his baby teeth removed, and he will be neutered. He’s also had a full Embark DNA panel and OFA testing. This is a tremendous value!
