We had such a wonderful experience with Ronni Mason at Heart of River Goldendoodles! She was incredibly responsive to all of our questions and made the entire adoption process smooth and reassuring. After we placed our deposit, she sent us frequent updates and photos. On adoption day, she drove multiple hours to meet us and thoughtfully brought items from our puppy’s mother to help with the transition. We can’t recommend Ronni highly enough
