Highly recommend Liberty Farm! From filling out the initial application to the communications over the phone with Charlotte, it became very clear that they take the business of matching the right dog to the right home very seriously. Every step of the way Charlotte was open and honest with us and we were beyond excited when we got matched with Charlie. Charlotte took the time to understand our family and lifestyle and matched us with the perfect puppy!
We had some pre-booked travel that led us to take advantage of Liberty Farm's Smart Start program. Let me say, this was the best money we have ever spent. Bringing home puppy that feels safe and secure in his crate, is able to sit and stay, and come when they are called takes so much anxiety out of the puppy experience. I would never get another puppy without having it go through the Smart Start training. It really was a seamless introduction to our family and we could not be happier with the level to service, education and support that Liberty Farm provided us. If you get a dog from Liberty, do it and yourself a favour and take advantage of Smart Start!
