    I found Melissa when looking for a Yorkie puppy. She took the time to answer my questions and provide me with additional information about the breed. I could tell she really cared about her dogs. I liked how she kept in touch with regular updates until it was time for pickup. Although all the puppies I looked at were adorable, the one I selected from Melissa was perfect. Recently I sent her a message thanking her for bringing him to me. I am totally satisfied with Melissa and Good Dog made the process from start to finish easy.

    After losing my beloved 16-year-old Yorkie, Toto, I was completely shattered. Although no pet could ever replace him, there was an empty space in my arms that needed to be filled. After sharing this loss with my sister, she came across Good Dog and sent me the link. From my very first conversation with Melissa, I knew I had come to the right place. Melissa is incredibly informative and transparent with every question I have. She is both professional and compassionate—truly someone who loves what she does. She even rearranged her busy schedule before going out of town to make sure I received my puppy sooner rather than waiting until after her trip. She still checks in periodically to see how Toby Max has adjusted to his new home, which I think is so thoughtful and sweet. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to welcome a new fur baby into their home.

    Our experience with Melissa was wonderful. She walked us through the entire process and calmed my nerves when I panicked… We now have an amazing addition to our family. His name is Stanley and we adore everything about him.

    Melissa made the entire adoption process incredibly quick and easy. She was always very responsive, answering any and all questions I had right away, which made me feel comfortable throughout the experience. I also really appreciated that she gives you a few days to complete a vet check, ensuring your puppy is in good health. Milo has truly been the best addition to my family, and I couldn’t be happier. If I decide to get another Yorkie in the future, I will absolutely be going through Melissa again. Highly recommend!

    My total experience with Melissa and Good Dog was exceptional. From the moment I went onto the Good Dog website, it was so easy to look at the available puppies and the breeders. It was very important to me to find a breeder that I thought took great care of her puppies and raised them with love and care. When I found the picture of the puppy and read about the breeder, I contacted her. Melissa got back to me within the hour. I was so impressed. We talked in length about her dogs and how she raised them. I felt so comfortable with her right away. The pickup was so easy and when I layed eyes on my new puppy, I was immediately in love. She went over all the papers, care, and follow up I needed to do. I would definitely recommend Melissa and Good Dog to all my friends.

    Adopting from Melissa was wonderful! Her communication before, during and even after was very helpful. You can definitely observe that she takes pride in what she does. This experience has been nothing but amazing and having Melissa to guide me with my new puppy was great. I hope anyone who is interested in getting a puppy adopts from her💕
