Stephanie has been absolutely wonderful throughout the entire process. Her communication was always prompt and clear, and even the hand-off went so smoothly. As a first-time puppy mom, I really appreciated how thoughtful and supportive she was—she made sure I was fully set up for success with one of her pups.
The puppy I brought home has been the sweetest, gentlest little companion. It’s clear he was raised with so much care and love. I can’t thank Stephanie enough for the amazing start she gave him. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, well-socialized puppy!
