Hi, yes, everything went great! A very nice young lady met with me and got KC. I had never heard of this site before, but I’m so glad it exists. It’s very hard to find a place to show and sell puppies. Thank you so much for all your help—I’ll happily pass along the name of this wonderful site, which I think is very cute. Thanks again, and may God bless you all!
