Q. & A. with Casey

  • Why did you start breeding?

    i got into breeding because my grandfather and mother were very small in home breeders! i have always been around puppies and dogs and loved every minute of it! The care and time i seen them put into their puppies and dogs was absolutely amazing and i knew one day that i would be doing it too!
  • What makes your program special?

    I feel my program is special because we strive for the best quality and temperament we can get! When adding a dog to our program that is what we look for and color has just been a bonus. Our dogs are raised inside our home as part of the family. They are spoiled and the puppies we have are raised with so much love and are handled from day one. We do this as a family and my kids are involved as much as i am. When our babies leave they are absolutely ready to begin life and are ready to take on the world!

    Casey was truly amazing in the puppy process! She was very quick to answer any questions that I had, and kept me up to date on how my miniature dachshund was doing. I had a 15 hour round trip to pick up my puppy, and I would 110% do it just to go through Casey again. I had a very positive experience and I definitely recommend.

    Casey is wonderful ! She was great about getting back to me with any questions I've had. I have now purchased two puppies from her my Betty (formerly known as Neela) and my AL (formerly known as Frost). They are both just as sweet as they can be and very affectionate. If you are looking for a great breeder and a truly amazing puppy then I highly recommend Casey. I know I will be buying all my Chi's from her from here on out.

    Casey was very responsive and knowledgeable about our little Dachshund. You can tell she really care about her dogs. She stayed in touch and sent us regular updates about our puppy (Woody). Good Dog made the process so easy, from the initial connection with Casey to arranging pick up and paying securely. We’re so glad we found Casey through Good Dog, and we couldn't be happier with our little Woody!"

    Casey and her family were amazing! She made sure we were part of the growing and learning experience even tho we were far away, we didn't miss a milestone sending us pictures and videos weekly. The puppies had so many life experiences that our little girl is a well rounded, friendly, curious pup.
