+6I couldn’t be happier with the decision I made purchasing my puppy from Tamara. She is very knowledgeable when it comes to Border Collies and any question I had she was very helpful, before and after I picked my puppy up. Would definitely recommend anyone looking for a Border Collie to get one from her. I could tell right when I got him home. He was well taken care of.

Tamara was very easy to work with and coordinate all aspects of receiving our puppy. She was very communicative and helped us through challenges we had receiving our puppy. She went out of her way when she could have simply let us find a solution for ourselves. We can't thank Tamara enough for her above and beyond assistance making everything work out perfectly. Thank you from he bottom of our hearts.

+6Tamara was amazing throughout the whole process. She was very responsive, helpful, and clearly cares a lot about her dogs. She answered all my questions and made everything easy and stress-free. You can tell the puppies are well cared for and loved. I’m very happy with my experience and would definitely recommend Flying S Ranch Border Collies to anyone looking for a Border Collie. And I couldn’t be happier with Kuma.
