We had a wonderful experience with Forbes Maltese/Shih Tzu, adopting our precious tiny Eloise. From the time I first saw her listing on Good Dog, until we drove to Florida to pick her up, Cherrfa was there to answer any questions we had. Our puppy came to us healthy, potty pad trained and well cared for. I 10/10 recommend this breeder, and have already referred several friends and family.

Cherrfa offered so many tips from useful Puppy supplies to grooming tips. It was a pleasure to work with Cherrfa. Hope is doing very well. She weighs 3.2 lbs at her 2nd set of puppy shots.
