Camille is amazing. Raised a litter of goldens for 8 weeks and knocked it out of the park. My new baby boy (Louis) is a dream come true. I’ve owned goldens my entire life and this little puppy is better behaved than all of them. Shows all the right signs and is perfectly healthy. If I ever get another dog, I don’t care how far away Camille is, she’s definitely getting my business again!
