Lara responded right away to my inquiries. She sent me pictures of Baylor. You can really tell she cares for her fur babies.

Ben’s Best Buddy stayed in contact with me throughout the entire process. The breeders were patient with me while deciding on which puppy to get and were quick to respond to any questions I had. I loved that they sent pictures of the puppies up until they went home.

Everything worked out perfectly! We were in town and my daughter found Lara. We quickly were able to make arrangements to meet. She was great!! Super flexible as we finished out our vacation. We were able to pick up Axel (who now answers to Rockie) He has been such a joy in our home!! He is enjoying West Coast life! So smart, so loving, just what our family needed after losing our 15 year old dog Duke.

Lara was wonderful throughout the adoption process! She was very quick with her responses and sent us pics & videos of our little Rosie every few days! I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to adopt a goldendoodle!
