    I contacted Barbara about one of her border collie puppies that I fell in love with on her profile. I was going through a really difficult time and had never had my own dog and so I had a lot of concerns and questions. Barbara was amazingly reassuring and confident and was able to make me feel comfortable enough to take Duke. She was even able to coordinate delivery to my house which was a huge help given my circumstances at the time. Fast forward a 5 weeks later, I could not be happier. Duke has warmed up my house and made it a home. He came with potty and crate training already under way and was a breeze to reinforce the work that Barbara had already begun. On several different occasions I have called her for advice and it has always been spot on. I highly recommend her puppies and also her service as a professional and just as a good human being. She takes her work very seriously and it's obvious how much effort she puts into giving her puppies the best chance at a great life.

    Barbara was such a pleasure to work with! She was very patient and responsive with our questions. She was so kind to send up photos and videos of our pup in the weeks leading up to us picking him up, and also allowed us to come by to meet him and spend some time with him beforehand. She genuinely cares for her pups and spends a lot of time in their first weeks with them with training, that makes the transition to forever homes a breeze. This was our first time using Good Dog and we are extremely happy with breeder, process and our pup. Thank you so much for everything!

    We are so happy that we chose The Weekend Farm. Barb was very responsive to my questions before we got our puppy and still is now that we have her. It is apparent that Barb’s dogs are her family and not a transaction. When we picked up our puppy we were provided with a clean bill of health from the vet, a baby blanket that had the mom’s smell on it and food. Our puppy Cheyenne is such a sweet and playful girl. She has a great demeanor especially with other dogs. We have been recommending The Weekend Farm to everyone we know.

    Barb from the weekend Farm was fantastic to work with. She was so patient and accommodating. I highly recommend a puppy from Barb because our puppy is great, smart and energetic.

    We had a very good experience with Barbara. Over the weeks, she sent us photos and videos of our Border Collie puppy. She answered all our questions. On pickup day we could see that our puppy had been happy on their lovely farm. We were given all her documentation and also a blanket that smells like her mother. And we got to meet the mother, who is a very sweet dog. We would definitely recommend this breeder!
