What Smart Families Do Instead — a free guide.
Crowned K9s is training-first—and Premium Puppy Placement (PPP) is built on that same system.
Two different lanes, same training-first standard. Latest Foundations update: Stella has officially been placed and is now thriving in her forever home as Sky. Charlie (a Find My Puppy pick) and his brother Owen (classic PPP) are both officially reserved and in Academy development — if you want the next Crowned K9s puppy to be yours, the Find My Puppy concierge lane is how Charlie came to be.

Premium Puppy Placement
Golden Retriever brothers · Born February 13, 2026 · · Both officially reserved
Charlie was a Find My Puppy pick. His family hired me before they had a puppy. I picked him from a litter of nine — seven still available — based on the family’s energy level, schedule, and the activities they wanted to share with their dog.
Owen is how classic PPP happens. When I arrived at the breeder’s to pick up Charlie, one puppy was still there without a home — the outlier of the pack. That’s Owen. I took the challenge of training both brothers at once and brought him into standard Premium Puppy Placement. He’s now reserved too.
Want the next Crowned K9s puppy to be yours? The Find My Puppy lane is how Charlie came to be — you hire me, I source the breeder, pick the pup that fits your family, and raise them through the same training-first system from 8–11 weeks before go-home.
