It was wonderful working with Ryan & Crystal. Very clear communication, quick response time, and excellent at answering all my questions. They were very helpful with the logistics of picking up our puppy. He is already doing really well with potty training and communicating with us. We had a 12-hour car ride home, and he didn't have a single accident. You can tell Ryan and Crystal took very good care of him in his first few weeks on earth, we are super lucky & I would 1000% buy a puppy from them again!
