Experiences from Thistle Hill Families
Feedback from families who have worked with Thistle Hill Siberians
"Marceline is a wonderful husky breeder. She takes it very seriously, and is in it for the right reasons. We felt a bit guilty at first going with a breeder vs. a shelter/foster husky, but after learning about all the care she puts into testing and screening her dogs for common breed issues, and training them from the moment they're born, we knew we wouldn't find a better husky for us. We also love that it's a whole family project for them, and enjoyed all the updates we saw and received before our Leo came home with us.
​
She's someone with very high standards, and you can see this in every aspect of the process from interviewing potential homes, taking the litter's photos each week, writing her newsletter, answering our questions both before and after picking up Leo, packing his travel bag. She balances doing what's right for the pups with keeping all possible owners happy. If you're looking for a husky, I recommend getting on her waitlist for any future litter.
I love working with a true professional, and am confident you'll be pleased with your decision to bring home one of Marceline's husky puppies."

"We first started looking for a husky puppy in early October and ThistleHill Siberians immediately caught our attention. Marceline answered our questions right away and kept us updated on the puppies. She was very thoughtful and placed Rosalind with us based on temperament, lifestyle, and listened to everything we were looking for in a puppy. Rosalind had a short start in the show scene, and Marceline kept us involved through the entire process. We really appreciated being brought along, and taught a lot about what it means to not only show the dogs, but demonstrated the bond between handler and dog. The entire process was nothing short of amazing, she made sure that we had everything we needed even including a specialized box of goodies for Rosalind! We love Rosalind to bits and we couldn’t be happier with her! If we were to get another husky in the future, we would 100% come back to Marceline!"

"Our experience with Marceline, and Thistle Hill was nothing but positive. We felt very comfortable and had all questions answered promptly. Marceline has made herself fully available to us before, during, and after receiving our new puppy. We were very pleased with the professionalism and care that went into the entire process. We were provided with a well detailed packet that would help any new puppy parent feel better prepared for this new adventure. It is very apparent that Thistle Hill holds themselves to the highest of standards. It is comforting to see that they take such pride in breeding healthy happy puppies, and it's obvious that they truly care about finding the best home for each puppy's needs."

"From the very beginning, Thistle Hill Siberians showed an exceptional level of care, knowledge, and heartfelt dedication to their dogs and the Siberian Husky breed as a whole. Communication was outstanding throughout the entire process of adopting our puppy. From before the puppies were born to every stage of watching them grow. We always felt informed and supported through messages, FaceTime check-ins, weekly newsletters, and thoughtful updates with milestone photos. What meant the most to us was the care taken to truly understand each puppy’s temperament and ensure the right fit for every family. With two adult Huskies already at home, we appreciated how intentional and knowledgeable the placement process by Marceline was. Puppies are clearly matched based on compatibility to find the best home for each of their needs. The tips, guidance, and insight shared along the way gave us the confidence of bringing a new member into our pack. We also loved being able to follow along on Instagram, which made us feel even more connected. Above all, we feel like part of a family and we are incredibly grateful to have found Thistle Hill Siberians. We deeply love our puppy. Thank you for everything you do and for raising such wonderful dogs."

"Couldn't have asked for a better breeder. We are extremely happy with our new puppy. Marceline was very pleasant to work with. She explained everything to us about Socrates (new pup) and what was what in his handbook that she provided. She also gave us a very cute box with a blanket and a stuffy for Socrates. If I were to get another puppy I would definitely go through Marceline. Marceline was great with communication, she would answer all our questions promptly. I will highly recommend her to our friends and loved ones. Thank you again Marceline."
- Jennifer C. (Socrates)
"I cannot recommend Marceline enough. From start to end she was extremely responsive and was quick to respond to any inquiries we had. She worked with us to set up the transportation that worked best for our schedule and financial standpoint. Marceline made herself available to our availability and made sure our puppy was completely healthy before sending her home to us. Very professional and caring."

"Marceline from ThistleHillSiberians has truly set the gold standard for what a responsible, dedicated, and compassionate breeder should be. From the moment my wife and I began our journey to adopt Zeus, Marceline’s professionalism and unwavering commitment shone through every interaction. Her stellar communication kept us constantly informed, whether through text updates, heartwarming photo shoots, or detailed email newsletters. Marceline creates a lifelong bond between her puppies and their new families. One of the standout aspects of her service is the incredible care package and guidebook she provides, ensuring every new puppy parent has everything they need for a seamless transition. The package is thoughtfully put together, filled with essentials, comforting items, and invaluable guidance to help our puppy( Zeus) settle into his new home with confidence. The detailed guidebook is a testament to Marceline’s dedication, offering expert advice, health tips, and puppy care best practices. What truly makes ThistleHillSiberians exceptional is the support from Marceline’s husband, Corey, and their son. Their teamwork, kindness, and passion make the entire experience personal and heartfelt, leaving no doubt that they are in this for all the right reasons. If you're looking for a breeder who treats both their puppies and customers like family, Marceline at ThistleHillSiberians are truly second to none."
