She crate trained like a breeze and handles potty training almost perfect. She is so beautiful and has a wonderful conformation. Smart as can be and she follows me everywhere. Beautiful coat which shows good food was provided while growing up.

Tamsen was an absolute pleasure when it came to picking up our pup. From the moment we selected our pup she sent us weekly updates and pictures. She was extremely responsive in every question we had. She also was very punctual with pick up location and time. Truly enjoyed working with Tamsen and would highly recommend this breeder to anyone!

+4Tamsen is wonderful to work with. We drive to Oregon from Nevada and she made picking up our pup convenient and fun. Little Flo has settled right in with our family. She has had no accidents in the house and she took herself outside without prompts this morning. Tamsen recommended this pup as she is curious, calm and confident, I know she will grow to be a great dog and lovely close friend. The take home bag with a blanket that smelled like Mom and appropriate chew toys is very appreciated. She sleeps through the night in her bed and did not whine more than a few seconds in her kennel. Dream Pup!
