+6Tanya was amazing! Very communicative and I got plenty of updates! Sterling (captain America) takes everything in stride and is very confident! Loves everyone even though he’s a little timid. It definitely shows the amount of love they get while being with Tanya.

+4Tanya was very helpful with answering questions and providing information. She was accommodating when picking up my new puppy! I definitely recommend contacting Tumbling Shoals Hiltop Bostons if you are looking for a Boston!

Tanya was great to work with in getting our new family member. She was very responsive and sent weekly photos and videos. Peter Parker who is now Brownie is a total sweetheart. You could tell he was raised from the beginning around people and was super comfortable snuggling right up. He's also been very healthy and happy. We couldn't love him more and would reach out to Tanya again if we ever decide to get another pup.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a wonderful experience with Tanya. Communication was excellent, and the entire process was smooth from start to finish. Princess Amber came home healthy, happy, and very well-socialized. She adjusted quickly, slept through her first night, and has been eating, drinking, playing, and using her puppy pads with ease. It is obvious she was raised with love and care. We highly recommend Tanya and team from Tumbling Shoals Hilltop Bostons to anyone looking for a Boston Terrier puppy.

Tanya was so patient with my questions and answered every one quickly and thoughtfully. Our veterinarian said that Betty was a very well cared for puppy in perfect condition and was also very impressed with her meticulous records that she provided. We are in love with our little Betty, and would definitely work with Tanya and Tumbling Shoals Hilltop Bostons again. It has been a wonderful experience from start to finish!
