    I am so happy I came across this app and found Teresa and Heartland. From my first communication Teresa was very responsive. I received weekly updates on Lola and pictures. And I could not be happier with my decision… our whole family adores Lola! She’s beautiful and healthy! A fluffy teething attacker! Thank you Teresa!!

    Working with Heartland Small Breeds was a great experience. From the moment we placed our deposit, Teresa worked hard to find ways to get us to bond across the miles with our new puppy. When my husband picked up our puppy, she came with a thoughtful care package prepared by Teresa for the 4 hour ride to her forever home. Our puppy already knew the name we gave her when we got her. Teresa did a fantastic job accurately describing her personality. One deeply appreciated element in this experience is how balanced our puppy is with being independent but also loving. She is very content laying down to sleep on the floor without cuddling but also loves to curl up and sleep in our arms. She doesn't fear being alone or display any kind of separation anxiety. We're so thankful for the easy and positive experience we had with Heartland Small Breeds. We would love to adopt from Teresa again!

    Teresa was very responsive to my inquiry and throughout the process. When I picked up Jax, Teresa had prepared bag of goodies to go with us. She was so kind and obviously cares greatly about her dogs. Excellent experience!

    I absolutely loved my experience with Good Dog. I found a wonderful breeder on this site named Teresa J. and with her help the whole process went so smoothly. She supplied me with all I needed to get started with. I love my new Pomeranian--he is healthy, happy and a real bundle of joy in my life. I will definitely make this my go to breeder and site for future puppy purchases. Thanks to Teresa and her good puppy care.
