After searching for a long-coated Akita (Woolie) for almost a year and dealing with dead ends and scammers, finding Ashley felt like striking gold. From the very beginning, she was personable, upfront, and completely honest. We had a unique situation where it was unclear if our first choice, Maya (formerly Posie), would turn out to be a Woolie, though we knew our second choice (Promise) definitely was. Ashley went above and beyond by reserving both puppies for seven days until she could confirm Maya's coat type. Most breeders would demand an immediate choice rather than taking two dogs off the market, but Ashley accommodated us graciously, which meant the world to us. Throughout the dame’s (Tymber) pregnancy, Ashley kept us well-informed and quickly answered all our questions. Once the litter arrived, she sent regular photo and video updates. We were initially stressed about getting Maya to our state, but Ashley handled all the flight logistics seamlessly, which was a massive relief. When we picked Maya up from the airport, we knew we had made the right choice. She was understandably a bit anxious from the trip, but she looked incredibly healthy. We expected a long adjustment period, but within 30 seconds of letting her out in our front yard, she was running everywhere and asking for belly rubs! Working with Ashley was not just a great business experience; it was a reminder that there are still genuinely good people out there who take pride in making others happy. If this review doesn’t convince you to go with her, it’s truly your loss. Thank you, Ashley, for everything!"

Ashley was amazing. She helped me to find me my puppy. She also helped me get him to me.
