Hi Sherrie I'm located in Washington State near Seattle. I do ship. I have one of these puppies going to Georgia on a red eye flight to avoid the heat.
I've been working with dogs all my life. I did obedience for awhile and I taught my own classes until my health forced me to give it up. I taught the 4H group for many years and not I just help on the side and help my daughter who is involved. While I have never temperament tested a litter I have a good sense of what to look for in a puppy and have been picking out puppies for my friends and family for years now. I've only had one friend who disregarded my choice and she told me years later that she should have listened to me. I love working with my own puppies! They are so smart! I love the blue color! I have my fingers crossed about a possible silver girl we might be getting. I'm waiting to hear if the Mom is expecting :) She has had silver puppies in the past.
