I won’t to think Beth for our new baby she was easy to respond to my questions and updates on her til we picked her up. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a new fur baby.

5* Beth & Bill James are great to work with. You can tell immediately their love for these pups. We adopted "Charlotte" renamed her Aggie-Lou. She is full energy and a very loving pup. Blended in with our English bulldog to complete our puppy pack. Would highly recommend them to anyone. When my son buys a house next year he's coming to get a pup or 2 from you all. Thanks again for everything. Heidi & Ben Miranda
