Q. & A. with Cory

    Our puppies are golden. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

    Judy was so kind and flexible. She was very knowledgeable and made the experience seamless! She loves what she does and her love for the puppies certainly shows! She explained everything required for paperwork, transition of ownership etc. I will say, it’s noticeable how much work she put into the puppies early on to give them a solid start! I highly recommend!
