    Akeely was a true blessing to work with during the process of finding our puppy, Emmy. She gladly shared all of the genetic testing done on her adult breeding dogs and answered all of my questions. Even my veterinarian said he was very impressed with her documentation of Emmy’s ancestry and knowledge of their genetics. Mostly importantly she is such a sweet and kind person. You can truly see that she loves and respects her dogs and has a loving home environment for them. I feel so luckily to have been able to get one of her pups.
