Piper is now three months old, and she's the most amazing puppy. She has a calm temperament, sleeps like a baby in her crate, and makes friends with everyone she meets! The only flaw - she cannot stand not being the center of attention!
Cheryl G.
Verified owner · Jan. 2023
Danielle was very informative, supportive and professional. She obviously loves her animals.

I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for giving me the opportunity to bring home such a wonderful puppy. I have been searching for the perfect addition to my family for quite some time.I must say that the puppy you gave me is beyond adorable. The first moment I saw him, I knew he was the one. His playful personality and cute little face have already brought so much joy into my life. I can tell that he was raised with love and care, as he is well-behaved and social with everyone he meets.He is already becoming a beloved member of my family, and I look forward to many happy years together.
