Verified owner · Aug. 2025
Maria is the best. She was very responsive, answered every question we had, and keeps detailed paperwork on her pups. When we met to pick up our puppy, she even gave us a care package with all of our puppies favorite things. It’s clear that our dog came from a very loving home. Thank you, Maria!
