    Debbie was dealing with two litters at one time. Day of pickup was a little hectic with all the new families. Debbie was very organized. I had a follow up question for her & she text me right back. Appreciated the info she gave me.

    I'm so happy to have worked with Debby and Echomoon. My Shih Tzu (Izzy) is very healthy, playful, and very smart. Izzy is not quite 3 months old and is potty trained already. No accidents in 4 days. She sleeps thru the night and loves her momma. I highly recommend Echomoon and Debby. They are perfect breeders.
