    Candice was quick to answer all my questions prior to our trip to see the puppy. Our new fur baby is energetic and quick to learn. I would highly recommend Candyce if you are looking for a Sheltie puppy.

    Candyce is a wonderful person, experienced breeder and extremely professional. I found Candyce while tending to my former dog dying of kidney disease. She was compassionate and understanding to my situation. She guided my selection and accommodated me in every way including reserving and willing to board my new puppy until I resolved my matters. She sent me update photos, vet visits and was always friendly and willing to discuss my questions, concerns and update schedules. Although busy, Candyce was never pushy or curt during this transaction. Now I am confidently enjoying a new bond with a beautiful healthy baby boy basenji with no reservations about my relationship with Candyce for she made this important process easy and smooth with her years of knowledge and experience.

    The process was straightforward, and I’m glad I chose Good Dog. Candyce was incredibly helpful, and everything went smoothly. My puppy arrived in excellent health.

    Candyce was amazing. The day I went to pick up Kiara was an absolute disaster. Everything I touched that day went to crap! Candyce had her daughter bring Kiara to Waco to rendezvous with me. Had issues with Good Dog trying to make the final payment, Candyce helped straighten that out as well. My only disappointment was not being able to meet her personally! Extremely pleased with Kiara, she's active, alert and seems to be a cuddle puppy. Expecting to have many laughs and adventures with her.

    Working with Candice on the purchase of two sheltie puppies was an amazing experience. She was immediately responsive to all qu Questions. The little girls were exactly as described and shown in the pictures. They were healthy and playful and everything we would ever want. I cannot recommend Candyce as a breeder highly enough. Amazing healthy happy little sheltie girls
