+7Darrick and Patricia were great to work with! Very responsive, answered all our questions and were accommodating, we got to see all the puppies and parents at pick-up on their property, very well taken care of. Mocha is the cutest little puppy, very social and she is a super fast learner :) gets along great with our other mini aussie Melanie and anyone she meets!

This was my first time using the app so he helped so much telling me what to do and how. He also provided great options for transport and brought all documents together and organized. He was great and super helpful.

+6We had such an excellent experience picking out our new pup. I was impressed by the organization and very clean area for the puppies and general love and care you could see they put into their family and all the dogs. I would absolutely come to them for any future pups!
