I have 3 dogs from joanie I know she loves her dogs to death and they are taken care of and loved more than any kennel I have ever seen or visited these reviews are 100% true and these people. who slander or make Joan out to be a puppy mill or a abusive breeder is a outrite lie and is completely out of line shame on u people who dont even know or havent even been to or met Joan sometimes things happen that noone can control who has a company or business that hasnt had any problems or had any issues nobody is perfect and if there is an example of a perfect breeder mixed blessings is as close as anyone can come to a loving caring clean mellow atmosphere were the dogs are not bread past a cerrtian date and they are not bread =3 to back u people have no clue what goes on there spend a day there and I garaiintee u will come out with a completely different outlook and will be absolutely taken to a new level of respect and a renewed outlook on this just plain not fair blown out of proportion
