I got my first rough-haired Griff from Renee over 15 years ago (Chunk). He died at 15, breaking my…read moreheart, but was the most wonderful, obedient, loving dog ever. From day one. And I attribute that to him being him raised by Renee. Because it was so long ago, I was able to visit Renee's home and see how she raised her pups (inside her clean home, no cages, with lots of toys and room to play--just like they are part of her family). I say this to defend her against the not nice things said by another reviewer. I understand that post-Covid, home visits are too dangerous to the pups. All throughout Chunk's LONG life, Renee was ALWAYS available to me at a moment's notice to answer questions, discuss concerns, or often she'd just check in through social media. Renee is truly a G-d send. Her knowledge of this breed is unparalleled. Renee is an AKC breeder, Chunk came with an AKC certificate and Heritage Papers and is fully registered with the AKC. After we lost Chunk, we immediately reached out to Renee to get another Griff. This time, we wanted a smooth coat. As usual, Renee, who now works together with another AKC Breeder in Kentucky (Barb (talk about unparalleled knowledge of the breed!!!), who lives in Kentucky), moved heaven and earth to get us the pup we wanted. Within a few months, our new smooth-coat baby girl Lola, who Barb had bred and raised in Kentucky, was ready to come home. I was a little apprehensive because, unlike before, I'd only seen the puppy in photos, and she'd have to come from Kentucky to LA with a flight nanny. My worries were for nothing because the flight nanny was very communicative and sent us tons of photos and updates from the night before and all during the flight and arrived right on time at the airport with my pup in perfect condition. But Barb, Barb, has been an incredible source of information. She is also an AKC breeder. She makes herself available for all questions and has the answer to anything. She sent my pup home with so much information about what to eat, how not to get hypoglycemic (and even had me prepared with meds in case signs showed of it), she sent home food, hydration drops, and anything and everything we could need to know. Lola also came with AKC certification and Heritage Papers. In the first few days, Lola wasn't drinking much, and Barb and Renee were so concerned, constantly calling with suggestions and advice. The amount of love and concern these two women have for the pups they breed is just phenomenal. Precious Paws, with Renee and Barb, is the only way to go if you're looking for a healthy, well-behaved, beautiful Griff. As long as they continue to breed, I will continue to go back. My husband and I are so grateful to them for bringing us two of the great little loves of our lives.

I have never left a review on yelp before but this breeder definitely deserves it…read more I contacted this breeder back in October of 2017 and they stated they had a litter of ~5 puppies coming in November. I really wanted a Blue female and was hoping for the best. I gave them a $500 deposit for second pick of the litter. After the birth of the litter I was notified by the breeder that only one puppy made it. Here are the exact words. "So everything didn't go as planned. Unfortunately, most of the pups didn't make it so we're left with one absolutely stunning male. He isn't the color the original buyer had in mind, so he's yours if you want him. He's a blue tri color. If you aren't interested in him, I'm more than happy to refund your money or transfer it to a different litter. Your choice. But, this male really is great looking and you may want to give him a chance to see if you like him :)" I thought great, I can get a refund for my money. Nope, soon after they have blocked all contact with me. I am currently in the process of filing a dispute with Paypal in the hopes I can get my money back. For anyone thinking about dealing with this breeder, don't. Save yourself the trouble.

I had been trying to convince my husband to let us get a puppy but he held strong... until I showed him the puppy that was pulling at my heartstrings. When I finally got a YES, I reached out to Andrea over IG to see if I could claim the little girl. The process was fast and seamless. She was super flexible with scheduling and while offered a referral for people that transport puppies, I wanted to come fly to get her myself. One week later and Ruby was all mine!! Andrea met me at the airport and had everything ready for me to take Ruby home. Easy peasy. Bonus: Ruby is puppy pad trained so it made the transition to having a dog in the house again so much easier than I was expecting! I am so glad I was able to get a puppy from Imperial Shih Tzu Momma and I already know that our next pup will be from her as well!

I recently hired Linda while surfing at Pismo Beach. Initially I was a little nervous as I wasn't…read morefrom the area. However, my fears were soon set aside as Linda took my dog while I removed my board from my car and began putting on my wetsuit. Without me saying a word, she suggested walking my dog within eyeshot. Little by little, I started feeling more confident and was able to relax. Her suggestion of remaining close helped my dog to feel less worried as well as the yummy treats she fed her. What I found most remarkable about Linda was her flexibility. Like an expert surfer, she navigated the situation with ease, rootling through her trunk for a towel when I forgot one, finding water for my dog when she got thirsty, and safeguarding my car keys when I was in the water. All this while a wildfire was causing evacuations within a county of her house! Vacationing as a single person with a Border Collie is not without its challenges; thanks to Linda, I was in a better position to meet those challenges and have fun.
