I had spent the last four months greiving over the loss of my last little companion and looking for the right dog to take his place in my life. The minute I found Erin and the little guy she called Hank, my heart melted and i knew I'd found the right match. I heard back from Erin shortly after I wrote to her about me and my interest in the little boy. Erin gave me all the info I needed about her pups and the parents. When I asked if I could come and meet with Hank prior to his being ready to leave his Mom, she was open to that and made it easy for me to spend a little time with him. During the next 13 days before I could take my pup home, Erin answered all my questions and kept me updated on my boy's progress. I've named him Percival, and call him Percy. He came to me well socialized and seems to be fearless. Percy is paper trained to the peepee pads i've used and has not had a single accident. He is content to sleep in his playpen throughout the night and when he's been in a crate to travel has let me know when he's needed to stop for a potty break. The transition from Erin and Daniel to my home has been easy and I couldn't be happier with the my forever furbaby.

It was wonderful working with Erin. She took every precaution concerning the new owner and the puppy. She talked over details of their health, issues they can have as a breed, and particularly the personality of the puppy we were interested in. We’ve had our little Sid for 4 days and this little boy is the smartest puppy I’ve ever had. He has not yet gone to the bathroom on the floor, only at night in his crate on a puppy pad, and has so much personality. Our goldendoodle adores him, plays with him, and already is sharing her toys with him. He’s a laid back but playful and extremely intelligent. First week of a puppy is the hardest adjustment and it’s been extremely easy. 5 stars Erin!

Erin was fantastic to work with and prompt in communication. She provided vet records and valuable advice and has stayed in contact after we took our puppy home, who is thriving as he adjusts to a new environment. Japanese Chins are a special breed, and we’re delighted with the fun, energetic, sweet puppy who has become a part of our lives. Highly recommend Erin!

Erin was very prompt in responding to any questions we had. She also kept us updated with videos and pictures of our puppy which we appreciated. Erin was also very flexible with a meeting location and had a very fair price tag on that. Overall, she made the experience very easy.

Erin was easy and clear with communication and very friendly, she provided sufficient information not only about the puppy but also gave me a very good idea about the mom and dad giving an idea of not just a cute baby dog but also what I was in for in the long run. Nax, as I named him from Hickory, is an amazing little Japanese Chin and a very smart little guy. Erin was easy to work with and I have nothing but good to say about the experience. Delivery with Dan was also smooth and easy, Erin was also available after delivery for me to be able to get information and get things done from the post-delivery.

It was a real pleasure working with Erin in bringing home our new Japanese Chin puppy. Communication was always excellent, and Erin was very flexible in arranging a location that was convenient for us to have the puppy delivered. The pup was current on all its vacations and had been well cared for. She is a sweetheart, and we love our new little Chin. Our two older Chins love the new addition, and they have already become best buds. The whole experience was a delight from start to finish. Thank you Erin, and thank you for arranging the long drive so early in the morning to bring the puppy to us in Nashville. :)
