As we still attempt to retrieve the partial refund from the breeder (Shaylee Largent) at Good Dog. We had contacted Good Dog in search of a 100% Long Hair Chihuahua. In turn, Good Dog passed our contact information to their breeder Shaylee Largent who told us she had exactly what we were looking for and said we could meet her that following weekend. As directed by Shaylee we attempted to make the required down payment on the Good Dog website. When their system did not work multiple times, Shaylee a trained certified breeder for Good Dog told us to make the down down payment to Grandmother's bank account which we did because we didn't want to lose the Dog. Because again, she was a trained Good Dog breeder referred to us by Good Dog. Seven months later and here we are. The dog has turned out to be NOT 100% chihuahua, but only 36% chihuahua with 13 other breeds. The breeder has disappeared with no contact and Good Dog has been doing nothing but tap dancing trying to avoid responsibility saying we didn't follow their correct procedures. WE TRIED TO BUT THEIR SYSTEM WAS DOWN. AND THEIR TRAINED CERTIFIED BREEDER, THAT GOOD DOG HAD GIVEN OUR NUMBER TO, TOLD US TO PERFORM A DIFFERENT ROUTE, TO AVOID LOSING THE DOG. Which is what we did. So long story short. We got screwed by Good Dog and their breeder, Shaylee. Shaylee is no longer answering any of our methods of contact. Good Dog is not answering any of my phone calls. Still tap dancing and trying to put the blame on anyone besides themselves. And we are still waiting on a 50% refund on a dog that was supposed to be a max of 9 lbs and is already 14 lbs.

We tried to make an account with them and they flat out refused us. We are ethical dog parents and breeders. They demanded we have an “online presence” or we couldn’t sign up with them. When we told them we didn’t use Facebook or Instagram they told us to take a hike! We offered our AKC registration account information and a link to our profile and they ignored use and refused to talk any further. DO NOT sign up with them unless you want full investigative invasive practices. A link to AKC and registration is all we had and it wasn’t good enough.

First and last time using Good Dog. What a terrible experience. I would not recommend it. You are required to put down hundreds of dollars as a NON-refundable deposit. You have to jump through so many hoops. They require a three page application with stupid questions asking what your favorite color is. It is all one big gimmick/scam. My wife and I jumped through all the hoops waiting weeks for one out of 3 puppies from Beth a breeder of Bostons only for her to tell us none were available. So we would have lost our $400 deposit in all of this. Thankfully she doesn’t sell cars - Hey bud, I am going to need a $1,000 non-refundable deposit before I can even let you see it. This was the worse experience we have ever had in our 60 years of buying Boston Terriers. I believe most of the breeders are actually puppy mills. UPDATE: Watch out for their puppy mill program "Guardian". This is a way for the breeders to avoid feeding, taking care of and disposing of the dog once they are no longer useful for breeding. The breeder is out of nothing. The contract is a nightmare. You can pay $5,000 for a dog and still not own it until the breeder signs off on the contract, which will be years. YES, it clearly states "YOU DO NOT OWN YOUR NEW DOG". It remains the property of the breeder. All while you will have to take YOUR dog back to the breeder to service females or worse yet, if a female has puppies for the breeder with no other compensation. YOUR dog will remain in the care of the breeder for as long as they deem necessary during each of these breeding visits. You will also have to take it to their vets - you pay, feed it certain expensive food, not allowed to have certain normal and critical vaccinations, etc. DO NOT SIGN a GUARDIAN contract. Do NOT! Any attorney would tell you the same. Also, remember - any deposits made on an upcoming litter or puppy WILL NOT BE REFUNDED. DO nothing verbally. Put everything in writing and to your satisfaction. Don't let this site or the breeder run the show. You are the customer. This site will support the breeders and NOT you. We speak from direct experience. We are now tied to driving 10-hour round-trips to drop our male Boston Terrier off at least three times with an open-ended contract as to when this will stop - years.

BEWARE of Dacus Doodles located in Montgomery Texas!!!!! Our type one diabetic 4 year old son was about to get a puppy from the icing on the cake litter. They were supposed to be imprinting the puppies For a possible service dog for my son. When we had our first zoom, call it all seemed perfect. as soon as I gave them a $500 deposit. the act of being nice went away from them. They had told me they would be able to have samples for Low's to do imprinting on the puppies. the puppies were two days old and Carly Lang breeder asked me to get her samples ASAP because she didn't have any and if i didn't we would be pushed to her next letter and have to wait even longer. of course, as a mom of a diabetic.I'm freaking out because we have been waiting for so long for this puppy. we did our best to get samples from our son.Who is four Which was very hard. after spending over $300 to get those delivered to them, to start imprinting the puppies. she got the samples, and then maybe I saw three videos of her imprinting the puppies. after that, I didn't get to see anymore videos of her imprinting. i would ask her to send videos to my trainer at Elite Dog training in colorado. she wouldn't do that. then I asked if my trainer could be a part of the family group page, where she would take videos of the puppies, and she denied my trainer being able to look at the puppies to help evaluate them for a possible candidate to be my son's diabetic alert dog and that's not all. every time I would text her if she could send more videos, she would get mad if I asked. then just two days ago, they told me they're not gonna give us a puppy because I asked to many questions and i dont trust them. They have no right saying they are Dod Breeders, who imprint for diabetic alert dogs. The way they treated my family was awful!! now we are stuck trying to find another puppy and go through the process again.Because she took that right away from us. after she imprinted the other puppies with my son's sent thats his DNA she took the right away from us and used us. beware of this breeder they have no right to call themselves imprinting diabetic alert dog breeder's. it's a complete scam. they're not in it to help families. they are not in it to help a family that needs a service dog. just beware, they are not what they seem on the first zoom. Call They're perfect. After tha they have your money.They do a one eighty. They really did a number on our family and my son, who's a type one diabetic. I just don't want this to happen to somebody else. there's more that has happened with that breeder, but I think I'll leave it the way it is now. they should be ashamed of themselves.!!

Thinking good dog was a good and reputable company I searched for my all dream white German Shepherd. So I seen a puppy that was listed as a German shepherd and it was a white litter. I bought my puppy through Vom Whitewolf. When she was a few months from being a year old I noticed that she was very small for a German Shepherd. I voiced my opinions And Concerns with Vom Whitewolf. He told me that she is still growing and would stop growing around a year and a half old. Still to this day she has not grown one bit. She is just over a year and 1 month old and we love her to death. Researching her size and all of her attributes we discovered she is actually a Dutch Shepherd much smaller than a German Shepherd. In order for good dog to get involved I would have to pay for a DNA test and then they would Consider Investigating it. The mother and father we believed were shown to us were normal size German Shepherds I don't believe they were her parents they're much bigger than her. Beware and read reviews even the 3 people that gave it 1 🌟. It can happen.

My sister found a Corgi breeder, Angelique Shatzel, who had a dog listed for $400. She spoke with Angelique and settled on a date that she was going to bring the dog to her house. Through text this morning she told my sister that she sold the dog to someone else without letting her know first. I took it upon myself to see if I could find a similar dog for my sister as she was completely heartbroken and devastated. When searching I found the same dog on Good Dog for $2700. I filled out the questionnaire and was found to be a good candidate. When I said I saw the same dog listed for $400 prior she immediately told me that the dog was sold and taken down. This seems very dishonest. I am very disgusted that she would run her business this way. Finding an animal is a process and once you do you become emotionally attached even without meeting him/her. 1/27/25 Thank you for getting back to me. While the original "transaction " was on a different platform, I attempted to buy the dog on this platform. The dog was available until I mentioned that she was listed on a different platform for $400. Then she was allegedly sold. I just feel that people should be aware that this breeder was dishonest.

I began communication with a breeder on Good Dog. After making a deposit on the Good Dog site, the breeder sent a contract. The contract would not open. I know hie pdf files and Docusign work; I even bought a house long-distance using docusign. This time, the communication with the breeder was wiped from the Good Dog site and Good Dog claims I have not made a deposit. The breeder accepted the deposit, but when I informed about the problem with the site, the breeder’s reply was to ignore it and deal directly with the breeder. The breeder uses e-mail on the Good Dog site and Good Dog is the payment platform, so how can I just ignore it? I notified Good Dog of the problem a week ago and there is no fix. It’s a platform with glitches that Good Dog won’t fix; not worth the hassle and loss of money.

We had purchased a few weeks old long hair chihuahua from Shaylee Largent of Good Dog. We specially wanted a chihuahua under 9lbs. Because we would be traveling with him on the airplane. Shaylee guaranteed us 3x his is pure bred long hair. When dog was around 2-3 mos. old he definitely did not look long hair chihuahua. Due to the fact we raised 2 long hair chihuahua in the past. They both lived 16-17 years old. Good Dog required a DNA which we did. Results came in Dec. Dog turned out to be 13 different dog breeds. Only 36% chihuahua. Shaylee agreed to give back 1/2 of what we paid. And now never answers the phone, return our text completely ignores us. No one calls to fix this problem. PLEASE BEWARE OF GOOD DOG OR SHAYLEE LARGENT.
