    "I had an absolutely wonderful experience working with Saraya to adopt our sweet Shih Tzu puppy, Raya! From the very beginning, Saraya was incredibly professional, kind, and responsive to all of my questions. She provided a clean, loving, and nurturing environment that truly shines through in Raya’s amazing temperament. Raya has settled into our home beautifully—she is healthy, happy, and so well-socialized. If you are looking for an ethical, caring breeder who truly loves their dogs, I cannot recommend Saraya highly enough!"

    Many thanks to Saraya and Good Dog for making the process so easy and giving me my new best friends, Chestnut and Oreo! They couldn’t be sweeter. I think the in-home family environment they started life in makes a big difference in their personalities and how quickly they took to me and my husband. We are so happy.

    Saraya’s Shih Tzus - A 10 Out of 10! Saraya was such a joy to work with! She is incredibly knowledgeable about the Shih Tzu breed, and you can truly see the love and care she puts into what she does. From day one, she kept me updated with videos and pictures, and her communication throughout the entire process was excellent. She immediately made me feel comfortable and confident in choosing her. Our boy, Figaro, was clearly raised in a loving, nurturing environment. When I shared the name we chose for him, Saraya began using it often, and he learned his name in no time! Because of the care and attention he received, Figaro made such a smooth transition into our home. We love our boy so much, and he has filled our home with endless love and joy. I highly recommend Saraya to anyone looking for a new fur baby. She genuinely cares about her puppies and the families they join. Saraya was also incredibly thoughtful in preparing a goodie bag for our baby doggie to help ensure a smooth transition into his new home. What a kind and caring gesture! If you choose to work with Saraya, you will be so happy welcoming your new furry family member home!

    Wonderful experience! From day 1, she texted me to send me photos and videos. Very helpful throughout the experience. My new puppy's temperament is so awesome. Very playful yet so cuddly. He's so perfect in every way.
