Elsa was always quick to respond and made bringing our new puppy home so easy. She was very knowledgeable about the breed and was eager to answer any questions we had.
Pamela C.
Verified owner · Aug. 2024
I can honestly say that this was a much easier and more pleasant of an experience than I could have hoped. Elsa was very accommodating in every way. From answering any and all questions I had about Willow to even bringing him to Austin to me, as I am disabled and was unable to drive to get him.
It is obvious that Elsa is an excellent breeder in that Winston is the epitome of excellent health. When I took him for his initial vet appointment to do my due diligence, my veterinarian stated that he was in perfect health and that he was an exceptional example of a French Bulldog.
From the moment I initiated contact, I have been pleased beyond belief at how happy I have been working with Elsa!

“Elsa was very responsive and knowledgeable about the breed. You can tell they really care about their dogs. They stayed in touch and sent me regular updates about my puppy. Good Dog made the process very easy, from the initial connection with Elsa to arranging pick-up and secure payment. I am so glad I found Elsa through Good Dog, and I couldn’t be happier with Izzy. She is a healthy, sweet, super smart pup.”
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.
