Rusty was incredibly helpful with answering questions about adopting River. He always responded quickly to any messages I sent. When I picked River up, he took time to go over the veterinarian paperwork and answer any questions I had about care and feeding of my new puppy. I couldn't be happier with my new little puppy. Not only is he beautiful and smart, but very healthy.

Rusty and his wife Hanna are so caring and helpful. They answered dozens of questions, sent photos and were willing to Facetime so we got to meet the baby! They were willing to meet us a few hours closer. And the puppy! Wow. What a sweet and beautiful sweetheart! You can tell she was bred and raised with so much love. The puppy is healthy and happy. We've had quite a bit of loss in our family lately and the puppy brings so much joy and happiness to our lives. We are most grateful for the blessing they shared with us.
