    Sandra was wonderful. I give her 10 stars out of five. I have my new best friend and he's the sweetest dog ever.

    Working with Sandra was such an amazing experience. She was very responsive and answered all our questions. We had a waiting period while our puppy grew old enough to take home and she provided us with updated photos and information as we waited. Our new pup is very well tempered, loving and super playful. We know it is because he came from a loving home before coming home with us. If you are thinking about bringing home a new fur friend I definitely recommend working with Sandra.

    Sandra was so easy to work with, and our dog is amazing. Oliver, formerly known as prancer, has been a dream. We were hesitant to get a puppy after losing our dog of 15 years, but found Oliver on this app and decided to go for it after a FaceTime call. He was so easy to potty train, he doesn’t shed, he is great with our kids, and is very playful. Sandra helped coordinate the transport from her place in North Carolina to us in Michigan and the cost was very reasonable. He loves being outside, especially in the snow, and he loves playing with the neighbor dogs. The best part is watching him with our kids. He is so playful and loves being with his people. He’s also a great road trip dog!! He’s been to Florida twice, Tennessee, Ohio and all over Michigan in our camper. He has his spot between the kids in the backseat and is so easy and well behaved in the car. Sandra as a breeder is top notch. She provided us a binder with information about his parents, genetic testing, his vaccinations to date, and general information about his breed. Our vet was impressed and said, for a breeder to provide this amount of information means that she really cares about her dogs, and I couldn’t agree more. Everyone in our family agrees that if we decide to get a second dog we will go directly to Sandy Creek Kennels to find his sibling. Thank you, Sandy, for such a wonderful pup!

    Finley, (formerly known as Chestnut), is such a wonderful addition to our family. He is very loving, plays with our 15 year old Maltipoo like they’ve always been brothers. My vet says I hit the jackpot with him.
