Valerie was hands down super responsive and knowledgeable on the pups throughout the entire process! Me and my wife highly encourage adopting one of her future Aussies. We took Wendy home and have never been happier! I will definitely be in contact with her again in the future for another Aussie!

Valerie was so easy to work with. She was very responsive and filed us in on our new pup’s personality with vids and pics. We knew early on we made the right choice picking to work with her! She provided us with a goodie bag (toys, food, potty pads) and lots of information to ensure a smooth transition!

Valerie gave frequent updates with photo’s and videos. The pick up process was a breeze, and the go home bag was a kind gesture. She provided a folder with all his current records and helpful tips to care for an aussie and what to expect. We also got to see Tioga’s parents and siblings.

Valerie was very responsive to questions before picking up the puppy. On the day of the pickup she provided detail instructions, and thoroughly explained her guarantee as well as providing some thoughtful puppy startup kit which included medical records, some toys and some food to get me started.
