Lynn is a wonderful breeder. We couldn’t be happier with our puppy. It was immediately evident that she had taken care to expose Gia to car rides, sounds, a variety of experiences and an abundance of love. This is my eighth German Shepherd puppy and - though I love them all - Lynn’s dedication to her dogs and the puppies they bring into this world is unparalleled.
