Our experience with Ashley was great! She was very communicative and helpful during the whole process. She sent us update photos and videos of our puppy while we were waiting to get him. She trained him on how to sit and being on his leash(amazing for us). Plus, Benny is the most adorable puppy ever! He is so happy, smart, inquisitive and social. He loves to say hello to people. He has been easy to teach new things. Most importantly he has adapted well to our environment and routine, we had to make some adjustments, but he is always very happy and relaxed.
