The process went smoothly and the communication was superb which made everything very easy. My fur baby is too good to be true; he is sweet, affectionate, playful and the most content laid-back puppy I have ever known. He is also extremely intelligent and knows his name after only 4 days. I am so so happy 🥰

Amara was responsive with any question I asked. We got a female Shih tzu , and she is absolutely a delight. Our new fur baby, Sazzy, is just as Amara described. She’s very adventurous and not afraid of anything. Our experience with Amara was positive's and rewarding.
