    I can’t say enough wonderful things about my experience with Regina and Scott! From the very first message, the process was seamless, professional, and incredibly personal. They were beyond helpful with every single question I had—whether it was about the puppy’s care, personality, or what to expect when he came home. Their communication was top-notch; I never once felt out of the loop because they kept me updated every step of the way. One of the most special moments was when they gave us the opportunity to have a video chat with our puppy before we met him in person. It made the wait so much more exciting and helped us bond with him right away. They also sent consistent updates with photos, videos, and sweet notes, which made us feel so connected to him even before he arrived. It’s clear that Regina and Scott truly love their puppies and want the absolute best for them. When it came time for him to come home, they went above and beyond. Scott personally flew our puppy from South Carolina to Florida, ensuring he was cared for and comfortable the entire trip. Knowing he was with someone he already knew and trusted gave us such peace of mind. They also provided us with everything we could possibly need for a smooth transition—his own food, a cozy blanket, and some toys that carried familiar scents from his first home. On top of that, they gave us an organized folder with his vet appointment, vaccination records, and important information, which made everything so easy to keep track of. Thanks to Regina and Scott’s dedication, I now have the sweetest, healthiest, and most well-adjusted puppy. You can tell he came from a loving environment and had the best start to life possible. I am so grateful to them for making what could have been a stressful process into something exciting, reassuring, and joyful. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a quality breeder who genuinely cares about their dogs and the families they go to.

    Reflections of Star Crest Kennel was amazing to work with. I’m out in California and they are located in South Carolina. I thought this would make for a difficult process, but it was the complete opposite. They connected me with a flight nanny and got my girl home to me safely. Regina stayed in contact throughout the entire process. I would use them again without a doubt.

    I am so grateful to Regina from Reflections of Star Crest Kennel. Last July/August, we were looking to get a Toy Australian Sheperd puppy. I came upon Regina of Reflections of Star Crest Kennel website with photos of beautiful and adorable AS puppies. Regina was so patient and helpful during the period of time my husband and I were contemplating our decision. Once we decided on our pup, Scooby, now Fin, Regina worked with me through the entire process. She helped in selecting the Nanny Pet Travel Service, which was extremely important to us that our pup was in good and safe hands during transport from the Carolinas to NYC. She prepared a cozy blanket, some kibble and his little toy from birth for his journey to us. Regina ensured our puppy was healthy, up to date shots and Vet visits and provided all documents prior to our puppy’s arrival. Including our puppy’s birth records and parents information, etc. Regina provided a wealth of information regarding the AS Breed, nutritional requirements, training materials and everything required to ready us for our puppy’s arrival. I even reached out to Regina several times after puppy’s arrival to ask for guidance and Regina got back to me right away with info/suggestions. I have since referred two friends to Regina of Reflections of Star Crest Kennel. We are looking to acquire another AS puppy soon and will surely be calling on Reflections and Regina again. Fin is thriving, so healthy and happy in his new home. We love him so much and cannot think of life without him. Thank you so much Regina for Fin and everything.

    We are delighted with our dog from Reflections from Star Crest Kennel. Regina was so responsive to all our contacts and questions. They clearly care about the dogs they are raising and we are grateful to them for our new family dog. Their dogs are well cared for, they provide transition materials, and the disposition of our dog shows he was loved while at the Kennel.
