    You can tell that Stephanie really cares about her dogs. And the health of the puppies going home. Most breeders don’t do what she does. She kept me updated throughout this process sending me periodic pictures and updates. When your puppy comes home, she sends all the paperwork and extra toys, food treats, and along with all of the puppies paperwork, including birth certificate, vaccination records, exam record, etc. she sends a care guide. Honestly, a really good experience working with Stephanie and I would recommend her to anybody who wants a puppy.
