We do the hard work — so they're ready
Every litter follows the same structured path before going home.
Whelped in a clean, climate-controlled whelping area and monitored closely.
Daily handling and developmentally appropriate exposure — sounds, surfaces, people — building a confident, calm adult.
Crate, potty, and leash training all begin before a puppy ever leaves us.
Well-adjusted, confident, and vet-cleared — ready to give unconditional love and steadfast comfort.
A small, home-centered program in Gap, PA
Located near Gap, PA, Sunnyside Pets is family-run, where every puppy is raised inside the home — not in a kennel. Our property is where our dogs live, play, and grow alongside our family, giving them a strong foundation of comfort and real-life experiences from day one.
We proudly welcome families near and far. Because our program is intentionally small, visits and placements are scheduled in advance through our waitlist.
Health first — always
Every breed we raise comes with its own known health considerations, and we take them seriously. We are intentional about our dam and sire pairings, and both parents complete health screening before any litter is planned.
