Kaitlin was absolutely amazing throughout the process. She was very thorough in ensuring the pups were meeting milestones, and providing us updates. When we picked up our pup, she was extremely organized and had everything ready for us and even sent us home with a bag of goodies, food, and everything. It is evident that the pups had a lot of love in the first weeks of their life, and were taken care of in the best way possible. She was truly exceptional, and the absolute best experience ever.

Kaitlyn was 100% wonderful through the entire process. You could tell that she loved and cared for the puppies beyond belief. Our little girl Savannah is so smart almost beyond her age provided us with some suggestions for training such as the feeding, using the word puppy puppy, Savannah 95% potty trained and is so smart. She has learned so many things already in our home and only one week, the one thing that is most that is she is very lovable, playful, and gets along with other dogs as well as people
The gift bag in itself represented the love time and compassion that she put into everything with her puppies. I feel that Kaitlyn was not a breeder, but was the first human mother that my Savannah had I am thankful for the care and love that she provided our young girl and can hope to continue to be in contact with her. I would highly recommend Kaitlyn as a breeder, and as someone that truly loves not only her dog, but the puppies that she has brought into this world
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
