Verified owner · Dec. 2025
+5Sora is now known as Xena and she is settling in wonderfully, I'm so glad we found her on Good Dog. Samantha was great to work with and was very concerned about Xena's well being and what family she would be joining. I would highly recommend her if you are looking for a healthy, playful little puppy. We would buy from her again.
