John was truly wonderful in helping us get our beautiful Shiba Inu, Soka. He was very communicative and gave us updates on our little puppy. He was also very patient especially as we coordinate our schedule to pick up Soka. We are truly grateful for him and his family for connecting us with the new addition to our family.

Absolutely great experience! My pup is doing great! She’s adorable and it was an easy process. Sent videos and photos before I picked her up. Very responsive!

I was very happy with John! They kept us updated with pictures of our puppy as time went along, and our girl has been an absolute delight to have! If I were to get another Shiba I would contact John again immediately! I couldn't be happier with the breeder we chose, they are very kind, they stay in touch, and we even picked our pup up directly from them at their home, and everything went perfectly. Cant thank them enough for everything. Highly recommend.

+8John was very responsive with any questions I asked and helped me figure out things I needed to get and bring before coming to adopt our puppy! Our puppy is now almost a year old and he is as healthy as can be and has a very lovely temperament! He’s super friendly and was very well adjusted even before we started training. If we ever wanted to adopt another Shiba we’d for sure recommend highline puppies!

I just wanted to share a bit about my experience with John and his wife at Highline puppies. I had been looking for a Shiba Inu for over a year. I learned about Good dog app and found these folks. I have nothing but good things to say about working with John. I found a beautiful 9 weeK old Shiba at a price that worked for me. The Good Dog app was easy to use and easy to communicate with the breeder. We love our little girl she is a bundle of busy busy fun. Thank you so much Highline puppies!
