Shih Tzu Junction was so easy to work with! Christine was great and met me half way so I could pick up my pup conveniently. We have all fallen in love with her and she is a great dog- really friendly and quick learner! Everyone who meets her always comments on how affectionate and adorable she is!

I am so happy and feel lucky to have worked with Christine! I was expecting the process to be overwhelming but Christine made it easy, always staying in contact and providing updates. Our sweet girl Gemma has an incredible temperament and we have gotten so many compliments on her beautiful coat. I can’t imagine not having her in our lives ❤️🐾
