I had a great experience getting my puppy Gracie from Maggie. We were able to see the puppy at 4 weeks and put a deposit down to hold her til she was ready to go to her forever home at 8 weeks. She is the smartest and sweetest puppy. Has slept through the night since the first night. Gracie is also so smart and can do quite a few tricks already! I take her everywhere I go as well. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience

We are very happy with Tails /Jake. He is doing better everyday. Went to the vet and all shots are updated and was put on his heartworm and tick and flea meds. Goes back to the vet in 2 weeks. He has stolen our hearts and is becoming more comfortable each day. Thank you for letting us purchase this awesome puppy.
