I had an amazing experience getting my puppy through Tori. From the start, they were friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly cared deeply about their dogs. They kept me updated with photos and info, and were always happy to answer my questions. We weren’t able to pick up our little guy until about a month after his siblings, but that was no problem for Tori. She kindly offered to keep him until we were ready and kept us updated with little check-ins and photos along the way. When I picked up my puppy, I could tell he had been raised in a loving, healthy environment. Little Juice came home happy, well-socialized, and perfectly prepared for the transition. I’m so grateful for how smooth and thoughtful the entire process was. If you’re thinking about getting a puppy from Tori, I highly recommend it!
