Q. & A. with Diane

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We attended a dog show and it was there that I saw Sarah Anne. I fell in love with her. The breeder had brought her and her sister to be evaluated by a judge as she was keeping one. LUCKY for me she chose Sarahs sister and sold Sarah to me. We purchased a little male and the rest was history. we had so much fun showing them. Sarah and Tucker were my foundation dogs, they produced beautiful puppies with REMARKABLE temperaments so we just had to keep their children LOL

    I love my dogs and enjoy them immensely, I put considerable thought into future litters so that you will have a beautiful, healthy puppy with a sound mind. They aren't just dogs, but little soul mates that are up to anything you may want to do. I strive for good temperaments .I have them tested for genetic faults, You can contact me with ANY questions at any time for the life of your dog.

    A to B. Diane was very helpful and answered all my question in full and was very kind !

    We recently moved to a new area where we didn’t know anyone, so we were looking for a companion—someone to add to our family. After searching online and exploring different options, we came across Diane, and right away we knew she was the person we wanted to get our dog from. Diane was incredibly knowledgeable about the dog we purchased, a Jack Russell Terrier. She stayed in constant contact with us, keeping us updated every step of the way. While we were waiting to bring our dog home, she was always available to answer our questions and guide us on what to buy and what to avoid. She was not only responsive but genuinely supportive of our needs, which made the entire experience even more special. We even have Diane saved in our phone as our dog’s “grandmother,” because of the care and connection she has with her. Knowing we can always reach out to her for advice gives us so much peace of mind. We are beyond happy with our decision to purchase our dog from Diane and are so grateful for the experience.

    Rustling Oaks Jack Russell Terriers was perfect to deal with! Diane was so easy to work with and so helpful. You could tell she loves her puppies! She takes pride in breeding top quality dogs. We love our puppy so much, he is so cute and lively and precious. He’s perfect. We don’t think we could have found a better puppy or a nicer person to deal with than Diane from Rustling Oaks. Gooddog was great, too. We found the best nanny from Travelers Care to fly him from Florida to Washington State through Gooddog. Andrew took great care of our puppy on the flight and he was so nice when we met at the airport. We also have access to lots of extras through gooddog, including free training g videos and discounts on different things. We would highly recommend Diane at Rustling Oaks and also Gooddog.com!
