Tiernan was great to work with! Sam, now Ziggy, is such a sweetie, and almost four months old.

We want to shout from the rooftops! Seriously, we are beaming with joy with the addition of this little guy to our family. We never we would get a pup this fast since we were on a waitlist for some time when we bought our first pup. Thanks to Good Dog we were able to “finance” our pup. It worked out beautifully for both parties.
Tiernan was informative, professional, patient so we could get a deposit together, and prompt with communication from day one. We had bought a pup from her sister before,and we knew this was going to be a well cared for dog we were getting.
Tiernan was willing to meet us at a convenient day for us so we could coordinate travel with getting the dog. We are so appreciative for this.
Our pup is already loving his big brother, his new home and yard. He is eating well, and his personality is coming out. We are so in love. Just finished getting him registered, his microchip registered, and vet appointment made.
Our last request. I somehow misplaced the photos of our pups parents. Tiernan is there a way you can send them to me through the app if you are seeing this?

If you are looking for a dog we highly recommend contacting Tiernan.

Tiernan was great, and I highly recommend her as a breeder! She was incredibly helpful and accommodating throughout the entire process, and it was clear that she genuinely cares about both her puppies and the people she places them with. If I ever decide to add another pup to the family, I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to her again.

Tiernan was responsive and so helpful! The process was smooth and I felt very reassured throughout. She provided helpful insight and made it a delight. This is my first dog and I couldn’t be more happy to have done it through Tinker Toy Doxies!

Tiernan was so awesome to work with. She made the entire adoption process so easy. She was flexible with my schedule and helped to make everything go very smoothly.
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
