    Missy was very responsive and knowledgeable about the breed. She answered all my questions and I can say she did care a lot about her puppy.

  • Sara A.

    Verified owner · Oct. 2024

    I absolutely loved working with Missy. The process was so easy! She responded very quickly to my initial application and was very flexible with times that I could visit and places that we could meet when I picked my puppy up! When I visited the property, she provided great directions and I was able to meet all of her other dogs. They were so friendly and well-cared for. Missy also provided a wonderful care package with Toby the day I finally brought him home full of toys as well as a security blanket, and he has been the perfect puppy!
