About Friendship Valley Pets
At Friendship Valley Pets, we raise happy, healthy puppies and place them in loving homes where they’ll be part of the family for life. We focus on quality, health, and transparency. You can find detailed information about our adult dogs right on our website because we believe you deserve to know exactly where your puppy comes from.
How It Started
Our story began in 2012 when Felty brought home a blue merle Australian Shepherd named Patty. She was the foundation of everything that followed.
In March of 2013, he welcomed his first litter of puppies. That same year, he met MaryEsther. They began dating in 2013 and were married in 2016. As their family grew, so did Friendship Valley Pets.
Today, Felty and MaryEsther are raising their children, Brandon (2017), Michelle (2019), Davon (2021), Thomas (2023), and Jonah (2024), alongside their dogs. Raising puppies is a true family effort and part of daily life in their home.
Puppies Raised in Real Life
This is not a side project. It is part of our everyday life.
Our children help socialize the puppies from an early age. They assist with:
- Feeding
- Playtime
- Daily interaction
- Gentle handling and exposure
Because of that hands on involvement, our puppies grow up around real family activity, including kids playing, normal household noise, and daily routines. That early exposure helps them adjust well to their new homes.
Life on Our Property
In addition to raising puppies, we also raise sheep. The kids help feed and care for the lambs, and watching them grow is part of life here. It keeps everyone involved and teaches responsibility, consistency, and care for animals.
Animals aren’t just something we sell. They’re part of our daily routine and our lifestyle.
Our Commitment - Mission Statement
We are committed to raising happy, healthy puppies and placing them in loving homes where they will thrive. We focus on quality, strong genetics, and responsible care in both our parent dogs and puppies. We provide clear, honest information about our adults so families can make confident decisions. Our goal is simple: raise well socialized puppies and match them with homes where they will be loved for life.
