The experience of getting my little girl puppy, Charlie was pretty flawless! I met her a week before I got her. Carla and her family were very accommodating, and I felt great about getting her! I believe that she was well cared for during the time that she was with their family. I’m loving this little puppy, and our training is coming along quite well! ❤️
