    Verified owner · Apr. 2022

    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.
