I purchased my Shih Tzu puppy from Stephanie back in March and it has easily been the best decision I have ever made. I love my sweet boy with my entire heart. He is so well behaved, loving, calm, and almost full potty trained at 5 months old! Stephanie was super responsive during the adoption process. She allowed me to come and visit the house months before Buckey was even ready to come home. We stayed in contact during the LONG awaited days before my baby boy was finally ready to come home. Stephanie answered MANY of my questions via text as I was a first time crazy dog mom. I am very thankful for Stephanie and her lovely sister. Thank you for helping me bring home my baby boy, Buckey!

Stephanie was great to work with. She sent me updates and pictures of my puppy.
We met in person when I picked up my puppy. I feel like I have someone I can communicate with about my puppy and get great advice. Thank you Stephanie for the special care and attention you give.
