Kristin was a pleasure to work with. She kept us informed while we waited for our pup to be ready to come home with us. Kristin, Mandy, a.k.a Bonnie, is doing well. She knows her name, understands no, loves to play fetch and she sleeps well throughout the night. Thank you for breeding a special little girl. Beth and Gene George

Excellent. It is a shame we can only rate our breeder with just a few words. We love our puppy and she has been spoiled since she came home.
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.
