Ashton was the perfect breeder. He gave us an opportunity to love another sweet baby that was the bloodline of the dad to this litter. Goose aka Lincoln is perfect for us and he is so spoiled already and the best puppy ever! He goes everywhere with me except to work ( I am working on my boss with this one lol). He is so happy, healthy and most importantly the missing piece to our family. He has fulfilled everything we were missing to feel complete. Highly recommend Ashton and his wonderful family as a breeder. He is now 16 pounds and is a very good puppy. He is our world!

5 stars, highly recommend working with Ashton and Bockelman GSP’s. Ashton was incredibly communicative and easy to work with when we had questions about the process and pup selection. He provided updates about how the puppies were doing and what they were working towards as they became ready to join their new home. He provided pictures and very prompt and thorough answers to our many questions. When it came time to decide how to pick up our puppy, he provided so many options, was very flexible and was very helpful given his knowledge about pros/cons and needs when using air travel vs. group/private transport or direct pickups. I never felt rushed or pressured to make a decision and was truly impressed with the entire process, having entered into the app with relative hesitancy. We welcomed our healthy and happy girl at 8 weeks and are now in week 11 of her little life. She arrived to us having been very very well taken care of - I knew that Ashton had developed bonds with the puppies and invested personally in their development and care. He took the appropriate amount of time at pickup to share info about her, her care, more about the litter and her mom, all while making sure we were parting with confidence in taking over. Liberty is a wonderful dog who had adapted seamlessly into our home and life. She arrived 99% potty trained probably because it was a new environment to adapt to. She uses a crate, pen and car carrier (and a stroller!) with zero complaints, cries or resistance. She has a ton of energy but is very quick to self-settle and even easier to train. We are 3 weeks into private 1:1 training and she has won the heart of her very experienced trainer - he describes her as “calm-confident” and we couldn’t agree more about how advantageous this disposition is. She very quickly learned recall, her name, sit/down, come and even sustained eye contact for commands. She is currently working on walking on lead. When the trainer introduces a concept that she “probably isn’t ready for” she works hard to try to learn it and surprises both the trainer and me with her willingness to work toward a new goal. Our trainer offers a service where he will make your “pick” from a litter and confirms that she was a great choice. She is sweet, friendly and so so calm when meeting new humans and other dogs. She loves sitting out front watching and waiting for the trash truck, the garbage truck, the school bus, the mailman - she doesn’t know that we are simply getting her used to the sights and sounds of our home, she just enjoys and wags her tail the entire time, usually while munching on a pine cone. She travels easily and happily and loves being exposed to new places and people at stores that are dog friendly (Home Depot and HomeGoods) and will stay in the cart, calmly, being greeted by everyone we pass. She is a joy to have around. I would absolutely recommend working with Ashton - he’s trustworthy, communicative and instills confidence when making the very big decision to bring a GSP into your life, home and heart.
