    Working with Mary and her daughter was a great at experience. This was my first time buying from a breeder and couldn’t have asked for a smoother process. The weekly updates were great along the way. You can tell how much they care about these puppies. Would purchase again!

    Mary was very good about giving us updates on the pups! She communicated great about their health, vet visits, and pictures of the little guys! Our lil guy feels right at home and already knows to pee outside!! His goofy-fluffy self is loving all the yard and house!

    Mary was amazing! She responded promptly every time, and there were no issues or confusion while working with her. Maverick arrived in good health with all the proper paperwork and a thoughtful care basket. Thanks again Mary!

    We loved working with Mary and the crew at Lawson’s Green Acres! Our baby Indy was perfect from day one. She’s already mostly potty trained and she’s got such a happy and confident demeanor. She was well loved and throughly watched over during her 8 weeks under Mary’s care. We knew a little bit about her temperament before we ever picked her up. We received weekly photos and updates and got to visit before pickup too. Can’t recommend highly enough!

    Mary couldn’t have been better. From the moment we were interested, all the way to picking our boy up, she was so invested. Mary is well educated and very involved with her pups. When we’re ready for another, Mary will be my first call!

    Mary was very responsive throughout the entire process! She would send weekly pictures/videos which was great. They also were flexible with our schedule when choosing and picking up the puppy. They also care a lot about the puppies!
