    Annette was wonderful to work with during this process. She was patient and kind with all my questions. She updated us regularly through the whole process. Even took the time once our puppy was home to answer more of my questions. She is knowledgeable and a joy to work with. If you’re considering one of her puppies don’t be afraid to say yes. You won’t be disappointed.

    Annette was amazing to work with! She was so quick to respond, she provided personal pic puppy updates along the whole wait even until pick up, and provided great info about our puppy’s needs! It was a straight forward and simple process. We love our new baby girl and couldn’t be happier! Thank you, Annette!
