Keith was very responsive. My pup was up to date on all shots,and my vet said puppy Frankie was in excellent shape. Frankie has some teeth issues and Keith was up front about it. Frankie is best buddies with our other pups.

+7From the very beginning, Keith and Tessa stayed in close communication with us. They kept us updated and even scheduled a Zoom call so we could meet our puppy and her mama. Every question we had was answered, and it was clear how deeply they cared about Brookie and the litter she delivered. Making payment through Good Dog was simple, and we easily arranged delivery with Keith. We couldn’t be more in love with our special Shetland—she adores people (and our 5 Grandkids from 2 years to 12), plays with our older Sheltie so sweetly and is already so quick to learn. Credit goes to Midwest Shelties for the love and care they give their puppies. We truly hope everyone has an experience like this when getting a dog. Steve, Angela & Gracie

From start to finish we had the best experience with Keith and his wife. Communication was excellent, they were very informative and accommodating. You can tell they truly care for these fur babies and take the time to work with them and socialize them and train them. Would 100% use them again and again! We love our new edition and he is absolutely gorgeous!
