Sarah was responsive and incredibly transparent. We asked for information on the parents' health, and she quickly provided us with documentation. When we scheduled to pick him up, she was extremely accommodating, meeting us halfway and providing us with a little puppy started kit. Our puppy (Odin) is doing great! When we took him for his next set of puppy vaccinations, our vet commented on what a beautiful and healthy dog he is.
