I do not have a vet suggestions for you area of town, I live in Marietta. I hope you are blessed with a happy healthy puppy.

He comes with a year genetic warranty. Thank you for the advice, and I will be sure to look for that book before I get him. Any vet recommendation is fine, it doesn't have to be in my area. I actually work in marietta.

Thank you again,
Tiffany
