Sorry Matthew, only just noticed your post ;-)
We have relocated back home to NSW earlier this year, and now have some vacancies available for rearing/whelping/spelling/pre training/boarding this month.
With whelping, we do it inhouse with central heating/nice clean blankets, once pups are born, they stay in bacteria free concrete yard until they have had their immunisation needles at 6-8 weeks then they move out to a small puppy yard. They will be regularly let out to roam a bigger 1 acre paddock daily. Once they hit 3mths and have been fully immunisated, they will then move onto a bigger yard and stay there until 10mths before being moved to racing kennels to learn the routine of being a racedog ;-)
All pups are taught to wear a collar and walked on lead, at 3-4mths old.
My prices for whelping varies, I know most places charge between $2500-4000 to whelp up to 8-12weeks old. I usually charge $2000 approx but depending on a lot of factors, but my maximum has never been more than $2800.
