Cheryl sent pictures and video prior to pick-p day to make sure we were up-to-date on how Ollie was doing. She spent a good amount of time with us answering questions and going over specific things we needed to know about Pap pups. She really cares about her puppies and makes sure they are set up to succeed! Wholly recommend her!

Cheryl was fantastic. She gave me plenty of info about my new little dude and sent pictures of him almost every day until I was able to pick him up. She was accommodating on the pickup and followed up for weeks after to make sure he is OK. Fantastic experience overall.

Cheryl went above and beyond to answer all the questions we had before we decided to select Jackie. After we selected Jackie, we had about a one-month period before we picked him up. During this time, Cheryl provided us with daily updates on Jackie’s progress, either via video or photos. Cheryl genuinely cares about her dogs and takes great care of them. I would highly recommend Cheryl to anyone looking to get a Papillon.
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.
