I had a great experience at Waggs to Riches!
All of the puppies are healthy and from private breeders, as the breeders information is placed on each cage. Ask the employees any questions about the puppies and they are very knowledgable, as well as attentive. If they don’t know an answer to your question about a certain puppy, they make sure to find out for you. You truly get what you pay for and if you want a healthy puppy with a creditable background, shop at Waggs To Riches. Thanks to the owner and her staff I had an amazing experience shopping here.
