I really wanted a collie puppy and I wasn't having any luck with any local or collie rescues. So I signed up with Good Dog to help me find my new best friend. I live in Pennsylvania and wanted to find a puppy near me. But there were no puppies to be found here. One day I got a notification for a puppy in New Mexico. I fell in love with her puppy, Christoff. Coincidentally, I have relatives in Albuquerque, New Mexico. So what a better way to visit them.
So I contacted Sue and after talking with her, I made my flight reservations to visit with my niece and pick up my puppy. Sue even said she would drive about 3 hours to my niece's house to drop off my puppy. It was easy to work with Good Dog. They walk you thru step by step what needs to be done. I felt very secure making my payments thru Good Dog's payment process. I am so glad I got to connect with Sue. She was wonderful to work with. She cares alot about her dogs. She kept me updated on his appointments and his results afterwards. I am just thrilled and happy with Christoff. His new name is now Harley. He has a wonderful personality. He is such a happy and friendly puppy. Thank you to Sue for his first 3 months bringing him up in a wonderful environment. This is an early Christmas present for me and it couldn't be any better. I would recommend purchasing a puppy from Sue at Lovely Heart Collies. She breeds some of the best collie puppies. It was just a great experience. Thank you Sue!!
