    Woolly is a wonderful, adorable dog. We absolutely adore him and want to complement Valkyrie Adventures on how well behaved and trained he is. Everything Kata said about his training has been accurate. He waits at doorways, before being fed and anytime you ask him to sit, down or wait. He comes when called & loves running & exploring. He sleeps through the night in his crate and willingly gets in it. I followed the suggestions about a softly playing radio & covering the crate with a blanket. Kata's philosophy of training calm dogs really does work. He is affectionate and very intelligent. Best dog. Thank you Valkyrie Adventures for doing such an outstanding job and for arranging such an easy pickup from your kind brother in law in Ruffin. NC. -Whitney

    Kata made the entire process so easy and gave me the confidence I needed through quick response times and lots of insight into any concerns I had. in It’s clear she has a passion for what she does and I am beyond lucky to have gotten one of her pups.

    She was super easy to work with and very responsive to messages. We have had our boy now for nearly a month and are so happy! He has been wonderfully trained

    It was wonderful working with Kata, from the first message I sent her she really took the time to get to know what I was looking for and educate me about the breed so I could make an informed decision. She went above and beyond to provide all the information I needed and was flexible with pick up. I am beyond thrilled with my sweet puppy, he is health and happy and a great match for our family!

    Absolutely amazing working with Kata and her brother-in-law. They’re both very knowledgeable. Bean is my husband and I’s first puppy so, I had a ton of questions. They both helped answer as much as they could and even helped me on things I didn’t know to ask. As far as my little puppy, he’s such a gem. He’s a calm and happy boy. Don’t get me wrong, he definitely gets his zoomies here and there. But, he’s very well balanced. They did an amazing job setting him up for success by giving him a good foundation. I highly recommend if you’re looking for a Mini Australian/American Shepherd to get one from Kata.

    Kata was the best when it came to giving information about the puppy’s and how they were. She was very responsive and truly cares for them! In the beginning she was willing to send extra photos and even videos of the puppies and were very accommodating to our needs for pickup. As soon as we stopped by our little puppy was ready to go and it couldn’t have been any better! After the long puppy pursuit we finally found our little girl.
