We had a wonderful experience with the breeder, Brandon Malone.
We drove roughly 6 hours to meet with with Brandon. We had already paid a deposit for the dog we chose to purchase. When we got there we were greeted and taken into his front yard, which was fenced in. We were introduced to the puppy that we had come to buy. For whatever reason my wife and I were not clicking with that puppy. It was a wonderful puppy and very sweet but he did not match our personalities. The Brandon could tell we were just a little bit disappointed. This prompted the Brandon to bring out two other puppies. We chose the one that best fit our personalities. The dog we chose was one the Brandon had hoped he could keep. He knew we really liked the puppy and allowed us to purchase him. I was pleased with the kindness of the breeder. I don't know how many other breeders would be willing to switch puppies like he did. Brandon is certainly a standup person who strives for customer support and appreciation. I would recommend Brandon to any of those looking for German Shepherds. Brandon also handled all of our paperwork as well as micro chipping. You can't go wrong with this breeder.
We have been exceptionally pleased with the puppy we bought. The puppy was/ is healthy, very social, didn't smell was and crate trained. This has made it much easier on us.
Once again, if you are looking for a wonderful German Shepherd visit or contact Brandon Malone. I highly recommend him.
