When my fiancé and I first started the search for a new pup we were initially overwhelmed. There are so many different routes to take when you're considering bringing a doggo home. Once I found Good Dog, it made the search simple for us. When I showed interest in one of Mary's puppies I reached out with a brief introduction and a few questions; the rest is history. Mary was receptive, responsive, and professional. She provided pictures, videos, and health updates until our pup was old enough to come home. When we were finally able to pick her up, we drove out to her home. Mary was sweet as can be! She educated us on aftercare, vet care, insurance, nutrition, and even made the most adorable take home goodie bag!🩷🎀 We've spent two weeks with our girl and we couldn't be more happy. She got a clean bill of health from the vet, loves to cuddle, and chase her tail around haha. Thank you Mary! You've made this a wonderful experience for my fiancé and I 🫶🏻

Mary was absolutely wonderful! She kept me updated with plenty of pictures and videos before my puppy’s arrival, which I truly appreciated. He is the sweetest little angel, and it’s clear he was well cared for. I couldn’t be happier!

Mary was wonderful to work with. She kept me updated about Fae with pictures and videos and answered any and all questions I had.
My Babygirl developed an umbilical hernia, and she let me know right away. Mary reduced the price of my puppy according to the price of the surgery in my town to get her hernia fixed.
My puppy is healthy, playful, sweet and learns fast.
The flight Nanny that brought Fae to us was kind, funny and a breeze to work with.
I recommend May's Country AKC Basset Hounds to everyone.
