Dan, if you ever need references for Sandi and the Puppy Headstart training program you can always use us. Also if anyone wants a reference for Sandyhill Bassets we would love to give one. We were very pleased with the whole process and will definitely get another puppy from you at a later date. Just realizing that it is to soon right now as Koda is more than enough for us to keep up with with all his puppy energy….lol… Roger
