We had a lovely experience working with Jamie! The adoption process was very easy, quick, and straightforward. I truly appreciated Jamie’s quick responses, detailed information, and flexibility when it came to picking up our puppy. She provided thorough information prior to pick-up day, which made the transition incredibly smooth and stress free. Jamie was also kind enough to share a reference from a previous puppy adoption to ease my mind about the process, which meant so much. We brought home a wonderful, playful, and energetic little puppy who we absolutely love. All thanks to Jamie and her wonderful family!
