    We had a very smooth experience with Kimberly- Summerwind Kennel. She was responsive and helped us find a wonderful puppy nanny to transport to us. We love our new puppy very much!! He’s an excellent dog!!! Thank you!!!

    Kimberly was great, answering all of my questions I had the same day I messaged her. She also helped to connect me with a flight nanny since I live on the other side of the US. I like that she also provided a folder with all of Wall-E’s medical records, and he is a beautiful healthy puppy. While he is a puppy and is prone to bursts of uncontrollable energy, for the most part he is very mild mannered and loves everyone. He is also a very good listener and has taken to training really well, he is a master of sit and is working on thresholds.
