    Melissa was awesome to work with. I needed to travel far to get the dog and she was great making sure all the logistics worked. The puppies are adorable, well socialized and extremely high quality dogs. We love Willow and are so excited to have her join the family. Thanks so much to Melissa and Lisa for trusting us with Willow.
