Shannon has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.

“After puppies are temperament tested utilizing the Volhardt testing guidelines, puppies that are well served on a working home (service or therapy) are matched based on puppies disposition and need of handler, then puppies well served in a family home are matched based on puppies disposition and family lifestyle.”

“Our puppies are bred with purpose and raised with a lot of care and time. With each litter we devote approximately 2,500 hours of time and thousands of dollars to insure they have the best start and that each family has the support needed to raise a happy, healthy pup. Pup comes with: Microchip, vaccination, 24-mo health guarentee,30-day insurance, lifetime support guarantee, 6-week AKC S.TA.R. Puppy Class and more. Your retainer is required to guarantee a puppy once the litter is born. If you choose anytime after its paid to wait, it is applied to a future adoption from another litter.”
Shannon may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy.

This was my family’s first time getting a puppy from a breeder, and if I’m being honest, I was very nervous about it. Shannon was very responsive, and answered any and all questions I had. Upon meeting her, I could see that she has such a genuine love for her dogs and their pups, and is extremely passionate about what she does. She is very knowledgeable. She made such a positive experience for my family and me, and we absolutely adore our puppy, Goose.
