Diane-Kay was wonderful in every way. She answered all my questions and was so supportive through the whole process. She worked with me on a location to pick the puppy up and was there when she said she would be. The puppy is healthy and is a real joy to have around. Groofy, funny, a real go-getter just like advertised. She's great company for our 2 year old Morkie and absolutely loves her sister. A real people puppy, loves to get any attention she can grab. I wholly recommend this breeder, she will not disappoint!

Diane-Kay was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was very responsive, kind, and knowledgeable about the breed. It was clear she truly cares about her dogs and the families they go to. She even met me personally to drop off my puppy, which meant so much. My dog is now my best friend and has had no health problems at all. She kept me updated throughout the process with pictures and information, which made everything smooth and reassuring. I’m so grateful for my healthy, happy puppy and would highly recommend Diane-Kay to anyone looking for a doodle!
