    Jeanette and Cheeki Chis were amazing. She sent us photos and videos, and kept us up to date with Mabel’s progress. Picking Mabel up was very easy and Jeanette was most accommodating when we had to change the date and location. We could tell right away Mabel came from a loving, caring, and stable environment. Our little pup is a an absolute joy, and am so grateful we found Jeanette (and Mabel)! Jeanette also has been most supportive after we brought Mabel home and has offered wonderful advice, and chi tips too!

    I had such a great experience with Jeanette. She was incredibly helpful throughout the whole process, always keeping me updated with pictures and information on my puppy as she grew. You can truly tell she cares so much about her puppies and gives them the best start in life. My puppy has been the sweetest, happiest addition to my life, and I couldn’t be more in love with her. I’m so grateful to Jeanette & Good Dog for making the experience so positive and easy!

    Jeanette is a great breeder. All of her pups are very social and our Ursa is one of the happiest, friendliest dogs I have ever had. Super happy with our pup. Jeanette was quick with responses and let us come meet Ursa before deciding. If we get another Chi, which we are thinking we might, I will definitely be going to Jeanette.

    Jeanette has been communicative from day one always facilitating visits with my puppy via FaceTime until he was ready to bring home. She is a breeder who cares for all her puppies without being overbearing - she has enjoyed all the updates with my little Mikey and always responds . Mikey is better than I could have ever imagined , he is the sweetest cutest Chi , everything is easy with him , worth every penny. Mikey rules his new empire with a gracious crown. He’s so tiny and cute !

    Jeanette was so amazing throughout the entire process, not only that but I got my puppy a little less than a year ago and she is still always responsive if I have any questions! He is just beautiful, happy, and healthy. I am forever grateful for her for the best puppy and overall experience that I could have asked for❤️ We will definitely be getting more fur babies from her when we are ready!!
