I met Aoife and her family and decided to adopt her from them that day. She’s a dream puppy!

I’ve had the best experience with this platform! I absolutely love my puppy, she’s amazing. The transition was seamless, with no issues whatsoever. This is truly a great platform!
Kamron

It went great! We traveled to Columbus, Ohio, and brought home Angus. He is the sweetest boy and bonded with me very quickly. I’m so grateful I was able to find him. In such a short time, he has already trained me well. I know his routine for going outside, and he eats calmly without rushing his food. Angus has truly filled an empty spot in my heart. Here are some pictures of him.
