    I had an excellent experience with Susan O. of So Sweet Chihuahuas. From the beginning, her communication was fast, friendly, and super helpful. Everything went smoothly and without any issues. Most importantly, Candi arrived safe, healthy, and has been the absolute sweetest dog. What’s really stood out over time is her amazing personality—it’s clear she was loved and cared for from the start. You can’t fake that kind of temperament. I’ve had experiences with breeders whose dogs were poorly socialized or neglected, and this couldn’t be more different. Candi felt like a perfectly trained companion from day one. I highly recommend Susan to anyone looking for a wonderful, well-adjusted Chihuahua.

    I cannot say enough good things about Susan and S.O. Sweet Chihuahuas. My husband and I were scammed three times from fake puppy advertisements. We ran across Susan on Good Dog and she has been nothing but amazing. The VERY first thing Susan asked was to FaceTime us. With that, we knew we were in good hands. She sent us so many pictures and was super communicative with the process. If you’ve had any doubts before hopefully this helps because Susan has been nothing short of an angel! Thank you so much for our baby girl Susan. We are in love and everyone at Eclipse bar and grill are too.

    Susan was fantastic in facetiming with the puppies and helping me pick the perfect one. Payment was easy and secure. Susan kept me updated with vet check and was accommodating in picking up the puppy.

    We had a fantastic experience with So Sweet and Susan. She was warm and friendly, provided regular updates, and took excellent care of our puppy. He has clearly been well-socialized and loved, as well as given a head start on toilet training, which was so helpful. He's adjusted to our home quickly and been a total joy. I would highly recommend So Sweet for a great experience and a wonderful dog.
