Working with Carolyn was a great experience. She was so friendly and caring. We had just lost a beautiful red longhair dachshund and were heart broken. Then we found Good Dog and Carolyn. They gave us hope and something to look forward to. We were so pleased with the communication about the dog we chose. She sent pictures and updated us on the progress of our pup. We were getting to know about Mendy before we got her. She was so well socialized when we got her, she was not shaking and afraid. She adapted well to our home. She gave kisses and wagged her tail right from the beginning. She is playful and sweet and healthy. Carolyn was a great support during our experience and I felt good knowing she was endorsed by Good Dog.
