    Meagan was great to work with. We got a 3 year old sweet little male, who she was rehoming. My husband and I got to meet her and the doggie before we all decided he was a good fit for him and us. After we agreed to that, we got our new boy the following week. Our boy, now Max, has made the transition to our home very well. He is smart, learning his new name in a few days, has done good with going out to potty and most importantly we love him, he likes our other small dog and is settling in better than expected. I have texted Meagan a few times and sent her pictures so that she knows he has found his forever home.
