Rachel was amazing to work. Throughout the entire process she kept us informed on our puppy we selected. Whenever we had questions we reached out to her and quickly responded. As the time approached for pickup she updated us weekly with pictures and videos on our puppy. She made the transition as smooth as possible which helped tremendously. Blue is enjoying our time with us as we are enjoying our time with him!

Easy transaction. Pups are very well taken care of. Everything that Rachel told us was on point and all promises made where kept. We were scammed on our first search and we probably were a little over the top with our research. We were pleasantly surprised with the outcome. Highly recommend Rachel and Blue Thunder Danes

I can't say enough good things about Mrs Rachel. Im so glad I stumbled upon their tik tok videos. I googled search Blue Thunder Danes after seeing her tik tok videos and found her on Good Dog. She was such a pleasure to work with she offered to FaceTime when I had questions about the puppies which was a big plus. Shes very knowledgeable as well. She answer3d all of our questions. I can tell she really cares about all of the puppies that means a lot to me. The transaction went smoothly. We are in love with our Pepper (formerly know as Aqua)..I look forward to doing business with her again.
