    We couldn't have asked for a better experience with Nicole! From the very beginning, she provided excellent communication, sent frequent pictures and videos to keep us updated on our boy, and was always happy to answer our questions or hop on a FaceTime call. Guster is such a healthy, happy puppy with an amazing, bubbly personality, and he adjusted to his new home so well. His potty training has been incredible, he picks up new tricks quickly, and he absolutely loves everyone he meets, which speaks volumes about the care, socialization, and dedication Nicole puts into raising her puppies. We are so grateful for all of her hard work and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful breeder. Thank you, Nicole!

    Nicole was amazing! We truly had the best experience with her. Extremely responsive, thorough, and kind. We’ve had our baby Dawson for 4 weeks and couldn’t love him more!

    We’ve had Capri (prev Lyric) for 5 weeks and she has been such a joyful addition to our family. She has such a sweet temperament and it’s clear Nicole provided a wonderful home for her. Nicole was so pleasant to work with, sending frequent updates & videos so we could see Capri’s growth and happy to answer any questions we had. She sent Capri to us with some things from her first home to help her settle in. Can’t recommend her enough!

    Nicole was great! She kept us excited by sending weekly photo updates as our puppy grew. Since coming home, our puppy has been healthy, picked up potty training fast, and is already learning commands. Couldn't recommend Nicole enough!
