About Nitengale Paws
Proudly in Business Since 2006
Home-Raised Puppies & Family-Style Care
Nitengale Paws began with a simple love for animals and a commitment to caring for them the right way.
Founded in 2006, Nitengale Paws focuses on purposefully bred fur babies raised inside a real home environment — never a kennel setting. Each litter remains with their mother during early development while being handled and socialized daily within our household.
Before fur babies can see or hear, they recognize scent, touch, and comfort through consistent human interaction. This early familiarity helps develop calm, well-adjusted companions before re-homing.
A Nurse’s Approach to Care
The name Nitengale Paws reflects a caregiving mindset.
With a nursing background, attention to cleanliness, safety, and overall well-being is part of everyday handling from early development through ongoing care services.
Observation, structure, and gentle handling guide how each puppy is cared for and monitored during growth.
Teacup Care Experience
Teacup breeds require additional attention during early development.
Because of their size, they can be prone to low blood sugar and difficulty maintaining body temperature in the first stages of life.
Close monitoring, scheduled feeding, and temperature support are provided when needed until the puppy can nurse consistently and regulate independently while remaining with the mother and litter.
Our Breeds
Nitengale Paws specializes in:
• Yorkshire Terriers
• Maltese
• Poodles
• Cane Corsos - (EE/EE-KB/E)
Teacup varieties are offered for small breeds only. Cane Corso's are never bred as teacup.
Each pairing is selected with focus on temperament, structure, and consistency.
Continued Support
Over time, families returned after bringing their fur baby home for dependable help when needed.
- Nitengale Paws now provides boarding, daycare, and vaccination visits available to both our clients and the community.
- While services expanded, the foundation has remained the same — responsible breeding and properly developed puppies.
Our boarding services offer:
• Home-style care for puppies and small dogs
• Individual attention and supervision
• A loving alternative to traditional kennels
We intentionally maintain a small, family-centered environment to ensure each puppy receives personalized care.
