    We had a wonderful experience getting our new puppy from Natalie. Our little malshi Teddy is PRECIOUS! The vet told us he's perfect. Teddy is such a good puppy. He's crate trained and goes all night without accidents. He's such a happy little puppy and he fits right in with our 10 month old malshi. We just love him so much!
