Meredith was awesome every step of the way! She answered all the questions we had in a timely manner and shared a lot of updates and pictures of how our puppy was doing and growing after we had reserved her. Nova (Bonnie) loved the blanket and toys Meredith gifted us with, and she came home a very happy, healthy, and confident puppy!
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
