    Doddie, is the most thoughtful and caring person. We were a little apprehensive had never used this app before, but she made the process so easy and we met in person and she was just as kind in person as she was by text. We picked up Jake and she had also brought the father with her so that we could meet him as well. Jake's father was so well behaved we knew we had made a great decision. You could tell that she was compassionate and caring about her boxers, didn't just breed to make money, she did it because she loves her dogs. Jake is a blessing he is the best puppy, so yes we thank you for making the process so incredibly easy.
