    I couldn’t be happier with the Female English Springer Spaniel that I got from A&R Springers. The dog is everything that I’ve come to expect from an English Springer,she is already making a great companion and displays the type of disposition one would expect from a liter raised in someone’s home. We are very pleased with our dog,(Pepper) Thank you Aliyah!

    I can't speak highly enough of Aliyah both with the way she conducts business as well as the quality of her dogs. From the time the pregnancy was confirmed, Aliyah kept us in the loop on labor, delivery, and weekly growth updates. We were able to watch our puppy grow and see him develop his personality through her weekly facebook live videos. We found out we were pregnant shortly after our puppy was born and it helped us so much to know what our puppy was going to be like when we picked him up and what to expect. His temperament really is perfect with a baby in the house. It's like it was meant to be! I especially loved that she was able to expose our puppy to grooming (baths, ear cleaning, nail trims) at a young age so he would be comfortable with these things as he grew. The pick up process was so smooth and thoughtful. You have a scheduled pick up time that allows for one on one time with your pup and their momma, making the transition as stress free as possible. All of the extra goodies that came with him was an added bonus! All in all, it's clear how much Aliyah cares about her dogs and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a Springer. She will be our breeder when we are ready for another pup!

    We waited three years after losing our Springer spaniel , before deciding to get another dog . I am so lucky I found A and R Springers Aliyah definitely knows each of her dogs and puppies and their personalities. She definitely put the work into helping make each of these pups easy to handle and train , Would highly recommend A and R Springers . After three years of not having a dog having Brandy now makes us wonder why we waited for so long . Thanks to A and R Springers for being such caring breeders . Such a pleasant experience.

    Aliyah provided such an amazing experience the entire duration of adopting our pup. She did weekly live videos which really made us feel like we were there to watch the pups grow. She’s extremely communicative during the entire process and you can definitely see the love she has for her dogs and their pups. Even when sending Ducky home with us she included so many goodies and so much useful info. We went home with a folder full of vet paperwork and AKC registration instructions. Ducky has become such a light in our lives and we can’t thank A&R Springers enough for him!!! I would recommended them 100 times over!

    Aliyah and Ryan are simply the best! From start to finish, they make the process of getting a new furry addition so easy! During the first 8 weeks, they take great care in adapting a puppy to life in a home by desensitizing (nail trim, bath, noise, even kennel training), potty training (this was such a breeze!), and so much more! Our Huk knew his name the moment he came home because Aliyah started to use it the moment his ears opened! This made further training so easy! They provide weekly updates, but beyond that they provide updates when the pups hit big milestones like their first puppy mush, bath time, etc. This gives you a feeling of being involved right from week 1! It’s heart warming to know they have so much interaction in the first weeks of life to set them up for success! We definitely can see a difference in puppies who receive this kind of care vs. your typical breeding program! When we picked up Huk, we were greeted with such a great care package that set us up for ultimate success. Beyond the pick up, Aliyah, Ryan, and I hold such a special relationship as they truly care about their puppies even after they go home. Without even living in the same state, they are the first people I go to if I have a problem even after 3 years and they are always willing to provide answers! They also raise such quality family and hunting dogs! We get so many compliments on how handsome our dog is, but also how well-mannered he is! For not having kids in our house, Huk immediately knows how to act around them and is a gentle soul. It’s heartwarming to see how he could be a ball of energy, but the moment a child is in his presence he can flip a switch. Huk also LOVES anything water! From dock diving to swimming to hunting, this boy is an otter! We absolutely love our boy Huk! He is our absolute whole world! He has the biggest personality which our family didn’t know we were missing before he came into our lives! He is one in a million and I definitely would get more pups from A&R Springers when the time has come to add another addition to our family!
