Verified owner · Aug. 2026
Brit was so responsive and knowledgable about Shiba! She shared habits of this breed, my puppy's personality, and regular updates about my puppy before we pick him up. On the pickup day, she drove 1.5 hr to a place closer to us, which helped a lot! She even gave us a puppy bag containing toys and treats.
