    It was a great working with Denny to find our new puppy. She kept us up to date with pictures and answered all of our questions. Our puppy has easily adapted to our family and was well socialized when we picked her up. Highly recommend.

    We had a wonderful experience with Denny and couldn’t be happier with our puppy! From the very beginning, communication was excellent. She sent us weekly photos and videos so we could watch our puppy grow. She made us feel connected and involved before bringing him home. It’s clear how much she genuinely cares for all of her dogs. She knows each of them so well and raises them with so much love and attention. Our puppy came to us healthy, well-socialized, and smart, which speaks volumes about the foundation she gave him. Denny was easy to work with and happy to answer any questions along the way. We’re so grateful for such a positive experience and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a well-loved and well-raised pup. Thank you Denny!!

    Denny was wonderful! She kept us up to date with photos and was always responsive when we reached out to her. Scout (now Willie Goose) is a perfect addition to our family and we cant wait to watch him grow!

    Denny was wonderful! She answered all my questions about personality and type of dog I was looking for as a service animal. She coordinated wonderfully to have him delivered and sent pictures, videos, and updates during the time before his arrival. She flew with him all the way to Maine and brought him with an amazing and unexpected "puppy kit". Waylon is the sweetest boy and already has a good foundation of behavior and potty training. I am beyond greatful to have found Denny who was a complete 180 to previous experience buying and shipping a pup from a distance. I would recommend her and her pups to anyone!

    Verified owner · July 2025

    Working with Denny was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. She was incredibly helpful, professional, and went above and beyond to ensure a smooth and positive experience. Her attention to detail, transparency, and genuine care for her puppies were evident every step of the way. The mini Aussie we brought home is not only adorable but also smart, well-socialized, and has such a good-natured temperament—clearly a testament to Denny’s care and experience. She provided thorough guidance, answered all our questions, and made sure we felt fully prepared to welcome our new family member. If you’re looking for a breeder who truly cares about their dogs and the families they go to, I *highly* recommend Denny. She exceeded all our expectations, and we couldn’t be happier with our sweet, happy pup! Thank you, Denny—you’re the best! 🐾
