We are so greatful that Good Dog helped us find Kayla! She was such a pleasure to deal with. Her response time was amazing, was always sending us updates and pictures of our puppy. She helped work with him and got him used to a carrier for the airplane, which helped tremendously! We really wanted to find a breeder with kids, so we know they were played with and being handled. I feel it’s very important and will definitely make a happier, more adaptable puppy. And that it did, Moose (Rivers) has been an easy wonderful puppy. Thank you Kayla!
