Emily and Tyler were absolutely amazing! They made the whole process super easy and straightforward. They were super quick to answer all our questions, and it was clear they really wanted to find the perfect home for each of their puppies. You can tell that they truly love what they do. I highly recommend them!!! Finn is the cutest puppy ever, and we can’t wait to make so many memories with him.

Emily and Tyler did a great job, Everything from initial contact, picking the pup, to payment through Good Dog, information on initial Vet visits-shots, deworming, chipping, even a photo album. Great people to work and buy from. Have had Jimmy-now Hershey for 2 days, has been a delight and so much fun to have and play/walk with. If you want this breed look at this breeder. They may even have a male or 2 left if not send them a message for the next litter you won't be disappointed.
