Laura was great to work with, she was very good with answering any questions I had. She has a really nice place where she is raising these beautiful and smart animals. If your in the market for a puppy you should definitely reach out to her.
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.
