    RaeLynn was fantastic from beginning to end. She was responsive, helpful, and kind. I had a lot of specific requests and she was accommodating and helpful. Most importantly my new puppy is healthy, intelligent, cute and so cuddly! ALSO she came to me potty trained! WOOOO! This new puppy poops and pees outside! I also really appreciated Raelynn's continued support even after we received our puppy. It shows how much she really cares about her dogs. I have recommended her to my family members who are also thinking about getting a poodle. Our new puppy is everything we were hoping for and more... She is so special. Thank you so munch RaeLynn for providing us with the newest member of our family. YAY! We love our sweet lil pup!

    RaeLynn was WONDERFUL to work with and SO accommodating from all my crazy questions, to also delivering her most of the way to me in Virginia! What a relief with two kids! We named our girl Nala. She is absolutely darling and just the sweetest loveliest girl! We couldn't be happier! We met the mama, Zeva, as well. And she was so sweet and well mannered and obedient. I would highly recommend RaeLynn as a breeder and individual! She's a kind and down to earth soul and it was a pleasure!

    RaeLynn was very easy to communicate with. She responded in a timely fashion and kept in touch almost everyday. Since we were miles away, we FaceTimed so my husband and I could see Maggie "in action" and ask questions. When it was time to pick up Maggie, we met RaeLynn and her husband at a dog park. They brought Maggie and Ziva (Maggie's mom). RaeLynn is determined to pass on the best qualities of Ziva. Maggie was potty trained and could sit and lay down. The entire experience was wonderful. This is our second day with Maggie and we couldn't be more pleased. Maggie is the most cuddly puppy we've have ever had. Her demeanor is calm and very loving, which is unusual for a puppy. My husband and I recommend RayLynn 100% when considering a new addition to your family.

    I am so happy with my puppy, Gemma! She is such a sweet and smart little girl, and I can tell she had a wonderful start in life. The breeder was amazing to work with—very responsive, knowledgeable, and clearly cares deeply about their dogs. The whole process was smooth and reassuring, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I feel so lucky to have Gemma in my family!

    We couldn’t be happier with the dog we got from Raelynn. He has been an absolute joy and such a wonderful addition to our family. Raelynn herself was a pleasure to deal with—kind, professional, and incredibly accommodating. She even went out of her way to meet us at a halfway point to make our drive easier, which we truly appreciated. The entire process was smooth and positive from start to finish, and it’s clear how much care she puts into her dogs. Highly recommend!

    RaeLynn was wonderful to work with. Responsive, kind, flexible, knowledgeable, and worked to get to know our family to make sure we were matched with the right pup for us, not just the one we thought was cutest in the pictures. Couldn’t have been a better experience. No high-pressure tactics like we experienced with some other high-volume breeders.
