+4Essence was a breeze to work with. She was responsive to our messages and very patient with the many questions we asked. She sent us several pictures and videos of the puppies before we made our final decision. Because we were hundreds of miles away Essence looked up information on air travel and she was willing to meet within 100 miles of her home. We agreed upon a meet up location and the puppy was everything she had promised. He was healthy, happy and just an amazing dog. He is adjusting well to his new surroundings and is doing well with his training. He is very intelligent and such a wonderful addition to our family. Thank you Essence and Good Dog for the great experience in finding our new fur baby, Cooper. I definitely recommend both to anybody looking to add a new dog to their family.

My family and I had the BEST experience with Essence and purchasing our new fur baby. She was very attentive, knowledgeable and provided us with great advice to help our new baby to adjust to her new environment, even after we made the purchase. She kept in contact to ensure that we were adjusting well and that our new puppy was able to adapt to her new environment. We plan to purchase from her again for my daughter’s birthday!

We had such a wonderful experience with Essence from start to finish. She was incredibly helpful, patient, and took the time to answer every single question we had, which made us feel confident and at ease throughout the process. One of the things we appreciated most was the updates. We received photos and messages about our puppy, which made the wait so much more exciting and reassuring. It was clear how much care and love went into raising the puppies. Our puppy was healthy, happy, and well cared for—everything we could have hoped for. We highly recommend this breeder to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dedicated experience. You can tell they care about their puppies and the families they go to.
