    What a great experience with Kristy! The puppy is amazing and Kristy was able to meet up with us at the airport for a very quick turnaround. She had everything super organized in a binder and even a bag of supplies for the trip home. He was very well socialized and fit in quickly into our busy home. Ready for another one 😃

    Kristy was really helpful and quick to respond all my doubts, she was very accommodating with our pick up date, I’m beyond great to her for my family’s new puppy. You can tell that she loves them and they are well taken care of. I couldn’t be happier with our Sky, she is the perfect addition to our family.

    Kristy was fantastic from the very beginning! She was extremely responsive and helpful with all my questions. The whole process was made super easy. Our new pup is settling in nicely and I’m thankful we found Kristy and her sweet doggies.

    100% 5 stars for Kristy and KSH. We met at a central location both having to drive 3+ hours. She communicated well prior to our meeting and was right on time with a beautiful pup as described. Kristy is on top of her game. She didn't just arrive with our pup. She had prepared a book with all of "Finn's" paperwork and early puppy pictures, and of his family. In addition she had prepared a travel bag for any puppy needs one may have for a new "baby" to get them started for a few days. This was a 5 Star delivery. I highly recommend KSH Aussie Haven!

    After losing our Miniature Australian Shepherd of 7 years to lymphoma, my husband and I began looking for a puppy. We knew we wanted another Miniature Aussie. We came across Kristy’s page on Gooddog and contacted her. She was very knowledgeable about the breed and we hit it off immediately. We love our little girl Nixee! The day we picked up Nixee, Kristy brought us a binder with everything we could possibly need (contract, vaccination history, genetic, orthopedic and health reports on the parents). She also provided a chart on dangerous drugs for Australian Shepherds. Kristy is awesome! She sent me Nixee’s baby album with pictures from birth until we picked her up. She even sent a picture of Nixee’s great grandmother who Nixee will most likely favor. We had a great experience working with Kristy at KSH Aussie Haven!!
