Mikaila and Bella were so great to work with. They were quick to respond to our inquiries and are very knowledgeable. We have a very sweet Australian Shepherd puppy who has become a loving member of our family.
Thank you Mikaila and Bella!!

I got my little doxi about a week ago
I got my little doxi about a week ago. From Tammy Bartel. I couldn't of had a better breeder. She answered my question very quickly. She sent weekly updates. Also I picked out my little girls name and Chloe knew her name by the time we got her!! Best personality and she is sweet as can be. She is very intelligent. She barks to be picked up and barks to be let down. I ask her to tell me and she will bark. I definitely fell in love. Thank you so much Tammy.

We have had a very positive experience…
We have had a very positive experience with Trevor and Noble Bull Terrier. Rudy is a healthy and beautiful little man. He is our third bull terrier and we highly recommend this breeder.

Our Poor Dog
I regret to share our unfortunate experience with the dog we acquired through Good Dog breeders, Alfheim - Andromeda Chihuahuas. In less than 24 hours after receiving our puppy, we were forced to rush him to the emergency room due to his inability to move. It was discovered that his blood sugar levels had plummeted dangerously low. Had we delayed seeking emergency veterinary care, he might not have survived. The subsequent hospitalization incurred a substantial cost of over $2500, all due to a significant coccidia infection responsible for his low blood sugar.
Several months later, when we contemplated having our dog neutered, our veterinarian identified a congenital condition called cryptorchidism, indicating that one testicle had not descended properly. Additionally, during this evaluation, we learned that our dog was missing several teeth. The expenses associated with neutering alone exceeded $1500, and none of this was covered by the insurance the breeder had recommended.
It is also worth nothing that our dog has one eye that is significantly smaller then the other. This condition is called microphthalmos.
Throughout this ordeal, our attempts to communicate these issues with the breeder were met with dismissiveness, and they even questioned our veterinarian's ability to diagnose the dog's conditions. Their attitude toward both my wife and me was rude and belittling. Incredibly, they even laughed when we attempted to articulate our concerns.
Their proposed solution was to take the dog back from us. However, considering the substantial financial investment of over $7500 we had made to acquire, maintain, and address the dog's health issues, this suggestion struck us as outlandish.
We also have another dog of the same breed, acquired from a different source, and we have not encountered any similar issues with that dog.
Good Dog has claimed that the breeders are not at fault. Its nice that we received our puppy so sick that he would have died the next day if we did not take him to the emergency vet. The dog also has a number of congenital defects that are not covered by the lifetime health guarantee. Use them at your own risk.

Hi Marc,
Thank you for reaching out. We’re sorry to hear of your dog’s medical needs. We’re glad our team was able to connect with you about this issue, and work with you over the past few days.
We take enforcement of our standards incredibly seriously and have a process in place in which we conduct an independent investigation of all complaints. We understand that the breeder disclosed these medical conditions to you prior to your purchase of the pup.
After reviewing all documentation provided, it was determined that the breeder is in compliance with our Community Standards & abiding by the terms agreed to in their contract at this time.
We hope this answers any remaining questions you may have.

My experience with the good dog was…
My experience with the good dog was excellent... My breeder Victoria (skeeter's pups), Was very understanding with the first pup through her she let me come see the puppies before I put a down payment and that made me feel More at ease... The reason I say this is because I've already been scammed 2 other times, So for her let me come see with my own eyes this gave me amazing feeling and Excitement...Also she gave me updated on my puppy and pictures... I recommend Victoria (skeeter's pups) if you are looking for a puppy.

Desert Sheepies- Archie
Debbie was amazing to work with not only through the 8 weeks while Archie was in her home with mama Remy but beyond while he is now with our family. She is very quick to respond to any questions we have. We would also get pictures and videos as puppies grew and updates on their development. Thank you Debbie!
