    I had a great experience working with Loretta. She drove to meet me, was very responsive, and it was very clear how much she cares for her pups! Bear is so happy in his new home.

    K&L is awesome. Such great communication throughout the process. Our vet was very impressed with both the paperwork provided and how very well socially the dog behaved. Little Jasper (now named Harry ) is quite smart and very well behaved for a puppy.
