Antoinette gave us a great experience in getting our sweet Leo!! After getting scammed before meeting her she made us feel secure by sending us pictures of him every week!!! Would definitely go with her in getting another Doxie!!

First class breeder! Krista was always available and quick to walk you through any questions or concerns. The process was wonderful, from the beginning to pick-up.

I have been working with Gro-T Kennels. I have to say that Jackee conducts herself in a very professional and honest manner. She sent me pics and videos of specific dogs that I was inquiring about whenever I asked. She always messaged me back and answered all my questions. She was honest about all the puppies health and temperament. She even sent out video's of every puppy's temperament test, which allowed me to make a true decision on the right temperament for me. She was available for Zoom calls whenever I asked. She allowed me to go to her home to pick up my puppy in person so I was able to meet the Sire and Dam. She sent me home with a very nice goodie bag filled with puppy toys, treats, quality puppy food and a folder filled with training tips and puppy recommendations. Jackee is truly a responsible honest breeder. I would strongy recommend her if you're considering a Portuguese Water Dog or Portidoodle.

I was recently matched on this website to a puppy from JS Great Danes in Poplar Bluff, MO. The breeder notified me yesterday that the entire puppy litter had contracted Pyoderma. Pyoderma is scientifically known as staphylococcus pseudintermedius, commonly known as a staph infection. Pyoderma is a bacterial infection that causes puss lesions under the skin. The bacteria may cause an infection secondary to scratching, contamination due to poor grooming, seborrhea, parasitic infestation, or local environmental irritants. Systemic antibiotic therapy is required to treat Pyoderma. Most Pyoderma therapy should be instituted for at least 3 to 4 weeks. However, if further therapy for Pyoderma is needed, continuation of treatment for at least 7 days beyond expected clinical resolution of lesions is recommended in all cases. The possibility of transfer of staph between animals and humans should also be considered. I have 2 concerns: 1) the conditions of the breeder’s facilities that caused the bacterial infection, and 2) the breeder wanted to meet at JC Penny’s instead of her facilities to exchange the puppy for final payment. Is that because she doesn’t want me to see her facilities? Suspicious. This is not something I want to bring into my home. After much research, deliberation, and consultation with my veterinarian I decided to not pursue this purchase of the puppy. UPDATE 5/6/23: Goog Dog! provided me good support, issued me a refund, and removed the breeder from its website. Melissa from Good Dog has been a great advocate for my situation. We were matched to another breeder who invited us into their home and toured their facilities. Great experience. I would not hesitate to pursue another Great Dane thru Good Dog! Thank you, Melissa!! ALSO, I originally posted my review before Good Dog! intervened. Once Good Dog! became aware of my situation, they were swift to act, supported my position, removed the breeder from their site, and issued me a complete refund! My original 1-⭐️ review reflected my experience with the breeder. I changed my review to 5-⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ to more appropriately represent my experience with Good Dog! Luv you guys! 👍

My girlfriend and I had a great experience with Everts mini aussies. Tammy provided great and helpful information about what to buy and how to make sure there was a smooth transition for the new owners and the pup.

Kathleen (dog breeder) is so AMAZING and did such a great job of pre-potty training all the puppies! We got Dolly Pawton in June of 2021 at 7 weeks old - Dolly is so well behaved and has such a SWEET nature. She is wonderful with my young daughter and we love her so much! Highly recommend Kathleens puppies!

Constructive, honest and helpful: Following the AKC guidelines of breeding Yorkies and Morkies (no earlier than 8 months), the 'compliance team' deemed that my female Morkie had been bred too early at 9 months. My puppies and advertisement was taken off, leaving me to work individually with each buyer that had placed a deposit on two puppies, and those who were in the process of deciding to buy. I have bred AKC Yorkshire terriers under the guidelines of AKC for years. After diligent reading of all portions of the Good Dog platform, I have failed to find breeding age guidelines. Why are these not posted, especially in conflict with AKC guidelines? This has been an unfortunate situation for me and my buyers. If I failed to find the breeding age guidelines, I offer your my apologies. The purpose of my correspondence to you today is to prevent this from happening to another seller, placing them in the very awkward position in which I have been placed. Constructive: Please be clear about your guidelines.

Hi Linda, Thank you so much for reaching out. We’re glad that a member of our Compliance team was able to share our Good Breeder Code of Ethics with you, and direct you to the specific policy that applies to your situation (Breeding and Care section 4): https://www.gooddog.com/breeder-code-of-ethics As previously shared with you via email, one area that our advisors and screening committee considers is a dog’s onset of breeding age in order to optimally maintain their health and welfare. Based on recommendations from canine reproductive veterinary specialists, our screening committee typically likes to see that Morkies and Yorkshire Terriers are allowed to mature to 12-18 months before being bred. We hope this answers any remaining questions you may have. We continue to wish you and your program nothing but the best! -The Good Dog Team

Spy Haven LLC and breeder Oliver have provided such a wonderful up bringing for their puppies. I got Bodhi two weeks ago and he is such a joy and such a cuddle bug! He is doing great with my two older dogs and is so loving with me and my boyfriend. He is cute and curious and exploratory in all the great puppy ways! I love him so much!! I have been texting him pictures and updates and he is so friendly and excited to see him pups. The dog is doing great walking with the big dogs and getting the hang of potty training. He was definitely cuddled and well loved!
