    When I first connected with Ash she asked what type of personality did I want in a puppy. And she picked the exact personality we were looking for. Ash is very knowledgeable about Norwegian Elkhounds. She also strives to find the right home for the right puppy. Ash kept me updated along the way and answered my questions. Ash delivered our puppy to us. She was wonderful through the entire adoption process. She gave us all of our puppy's vaccine information and information on socialization and puppy proofing our house and yard. Ash cares very much about her dogs that are the parents and the puppies she breeds. I would highly recommend Furever Elkhounds for your next puppy.

    From the beginning Ash was extremely communicative and helpful. They answered all of my (many!) questions in a timely manner. I especially appreciated all of the pictures of our puppy and updates on how she was doing while we waited to pick her up. We were very happy to see her being raised with her littermates in a comfortable home, getting lots of experiences playing outdoors, riding in the car and spending time with people. Once I brought Luna home, she was already a very sweet and nicely socialized dog. She was obviously very well loved and cared for while with Ash and her litter mates. Once we brought her to our family veterinarian they remarked how healthy Luna was and how she as up to date on all of her puppy shots. Ash also provided us with all of her records as well as some food and starter heart work and flea and tick medications which was very nice. We would 100% work with Ash again for a beautiful purebred Norwegian Elkhound puppy in the future and would recommend them to anyone looking for an Elkhound pup!
