We had such a wonderful Experience with Alexis from Best Shepherds. She was so helpful giving us all the information we needed to make an easy transition for Kasha. We received all the paperwork required to get her set up with a new Vet and the AKC. Kasha is happy, healthy and adjusting super well to her new home. We can't Thanks Alexis enough for her caring to make sure Kasha (Kali) made a smooth transition. We are hoping to see her again in the future for maybe # 2....

+8I am so pleased we got our puppy from Alexis! She was most helpful during the entire transition! My pup loves his crate, no problem with touching his paws and a wonderful intelligent temperament. He has learned so many commands quickly to be a service dog. Beautiful markings and demeanor. I will definitely recommend Alexis and in a year or so will most likely get a female! Totally satisfied!
