I am the proud parent of two of Heart 'N Soul Leonbergers furkids, Baxter from the B litter and Chloe from the D litter. I researched both the breed and breeders before flying out to Illinois to meet my bundle of healthy and happy puppy. Rachel is fastidious about her breedings. The few females she chooses to breed are genetically tested [these results are available for perusal from the veterinarian] and each pregnancy monitored to insure the integrity of her breeding program. Each puppy is sent to their new home with a booklet outlining care and a signed contract stating "The breeder has done all due diligence to insure puppies are bred from quality, healthy, best temperament Leonbergers who meet the European standard." Rachel has maintained communication with me since we became a part of her family four years ago. My puppies have grown into happy and HEALTHY dogs. If you are willing to be a responsible Leonberger owner, contact Heart 'N Soul and get the real story from a reputable breeder who loves her animals.
