    Kim was good to communicate with. Answered all questions in a timely manner. Sent updates on our girl Evie and pictures while we waited for our pick up date. Evie is a very happy and sweet girl and is very well socialized and very healthy and smart. We will recommend southern love cavapoos and good dog to all our family and friends.

    Kim was so great at answering on my questions and made pick up flexible. We are in love with our Cavapoo “Rose” now Phoebe 💗. She has playful and sweet personality but will let you know when she wants something! She is almost 11lbs and is such a cuddly baby. I have recommended southern love to many friends!

    Kim was fantastic to work with. Our puppy is thriving and has such a great temperament. Starting with the inquiry, through meet up to bring him home followed by some questions after his first vet visit she was responsive and helpful. We love our new family member so much and are grateful to have gotten such a chill, well mannered little guy.

    Kim not only breeds beautiful, healthy puppies but is so easy to talk to. Very communicative and upfront. Such an easy process in getting our beautiful Cavapoo pup!

    Kim was extremely helpful and breeds adorable puppies! My husband and I drove from Carlsbad, CA to Denton, TX to pick up our little doll Penny (aka Ocean). Penny is sweet and so far, easily trained - we were able to teach her to ring a bell at the door so she can let us know when she needs to go out ... she has also learned to fake a pee to get a reward :) Kim's Amazon list was extremely helpful as well.

    I loved using GoodDog to find our puppy! Willow is a perfect mini cavapoo F1B mix. She is very smart and easy to train. We are getting her socialized with grooming, baths and car rides as she is very scared of these. We are also working on training her out of biting and getting her more comfortable with separation. All these things are normal for her age and we are meeting her where she’s at! Highly recommend doing the Baxter and Bella training prior to getting a puppy. It’s been an adjustment for sure but we couldn’t be happier with our decision to get this sweet girl. Her playful energy, her sweet and cuddly demeanor, her trainability, and her non-shedding coat were exactly what I hoped for in a puppy. Thank you, Kim!
