    Heather was great and very easy to work with. Our new Westie puppy, Sophie, is perfect. Thank you Heather for helping add a new member to our family.

    I happened upon Heather’s profile coincidentally, as specializes in the two breeds I was seeking. It was great being able to have both our pups come from the same kennel. She was attentive, provided requested information, and even updated us periodically, unsolicited. The process of getting a new dog can be difficult, yet Heather was instrumental in easing that process. I can confidently say her pups are beautiful and intelligent. So far, we are very satisfied with our purchase a believe Heather provides quality additions to the family. Our Giant follows me everywhere, never leaving my side, and is highly intelligent - already learning multiple commands. Our Westie is playful, curious, and exuberant. Both are very affectionate. Anke and Angus are adapting quickly. I am glad to have found Heather. Highly recommend.

    Heather was great to work with. She would respond to any questions I had quickly. I was flying in to pick up my puppy, and she worked with me to ensure I could make my flight back home. The puppy is very sweet and adjusted well to her new life. Heather gave me a blanket with her littermate's scent, food, and the information about her microchip. I would gladly work with Heather again.

    We had a great experience with Heather! She was always quick to respond and is very knowledgeable. I appreciated how patient she was with us. I didn’t have that experience with other breeders we interacted with in good dog. We picked up our puppy a few weeks ago and he’s the best boy. Super smart and calm around my kids. This is our first GS and we love our Maverick!

    Heather was wonderful to work with. My husband and I live in SC and she worked with us getting Onyx transferred. We flew into Tucson and Heather was a joy through the whole process. She responded to messages very quickly, shared updates and a video, and was very patient with answering all of our questions. We are thankful for all of the help we received from Heather.

    I can’t express how happy I am to have found Olympian and Heather. I suddenly lost my best bud of 12 years 3 days before Christmas. I knew I wanted a female GS next but wasn’t ready until just recently. Timing was perfect when I googled breeders near me and Heather was there on Good Dog with an adorable litter of 2 day old pups. She was genuinely kind and patient with me and answered just about every question or concern I had before I could even ask. From placing a deposit to puppy pick day felt like months instead of weeks I was so anxious but Heather sent regular pics and video updates and reminders that she was always available to answer any questions and when the AC went out in my car a week before I was to make the 3.5 hour trip she came through on very short notice with her awesome delivery service and I now the most adorable, perfect little girl that instantly my heart ache just about disappear. Everyone just melts when they see her and ask where I got her and I couldn’t be more proud or happy to tell them all about Heather and Olympian Giant Schnauzers!! Thanks Heather you’re the best and I love my baby girl!!! 😍
