Jessica was AMAZING! This was my first puppy purchase and I was very anxious about the entire process. Jessica helped answer any questions I had, guided me to the puppy she thought would best fit my wants, and constantly kept me in the loop on everything puppy related. Jessica shared videos and pictures of my puppy playing with friends and being a cuddle bug. Jessica was such a pleasure to work with; she really defines what a great breeder is.
