Q. & A. with Heather

    Heather was so responsive and great throughout the whole process of us getting our little Rue. I had never bought a puppy from a breeder so far away and had no idea they did things like flight nanny until Heather called me over the phone and had a one on one conversation about how she makes sure we are getting a healthy, happy puppy delivered by herself/family instead of some random person neither of us know. Made me feel a lot less stressed about potentially getting scammed or having something wrong during Rue’s travel from Wyoming to Idaho. Rue herself is one of the happiest go lucky dogs I have ever met. She truly is a sweetheart and the cutest thing my husband and I could have asked for. I think Heather does not over exaggerate when she says she raises some of the best Golden Mountain dog puppies. I would highly recommend her if you are looking to add a fur baby in your life!
