I have grown up with dogs, and I have had dogs for many yeara. However, the puppy i recently received from honest pet has been the most well behaved dog by far. She has the cutest, most playful personality. But she is also SO intelligent and plain sweet. It was so easy for me to show her where to potty, and she does not bark thaf much either. She learned the basic tricks in under a week, and, after one hour of playing, she goes to curl up beside me and takes a nap. I would say the only thing i have not been able to work through is the hatred of her crate, but brooke from the honest pet team has been walking me through crate training. It has been a VAST improvement since i first got her. The team also still regularly asks me for updates! I really feel like i am now a part of the community

Great Communication
Honest pet created a great experience for me when i got my dachshund from them. My girlfriend and i were looking for a dog together, and we were speaking to this one lady from honest pet. We initially discovered this website on instagram, and, based off of the reviews, i thought we could give it a try at least. No harm no foul. Anyway, we ended up talking to the sales lady for almost one hour. She ended up explaining the process through and through. she sent us pictures and videos, and she even showed us her own dog that she got from honestpet. I ended up reserving the dog, just so we could do a video call with him. Although she was super helpful, adopting a dog from online does come with with a lot of anxieties as well. I ended up explaining this hesitation at a later time, per my girlfriend's encouragement, and the sales representative got me in touch with two other members of their team. I spoke to both the delivery department and their customer service department, in which they both explained their avenues of the business, and that I will in fact be receiving my dog in the best possible condition. Anyway, it comes the meet and greet, and the dachshund was as playful as described. My girlfriend and I immediately decided to take him, and it's just been a continuously, great experience since. They were so kind to work around my 1 week holiday, and Michelle was able to schedule the delivery for it to come two days after my return. I spoke to multiple individuals from the customer service team. One of them walked us through the entire puppy process, and what it exactly entails. they told me what food to purchase, what toys to get for neurological stimulation, and the beginnings of potty training. Anyway, my dog has since arrived, and I think he is the perfect fit. My girlfriend loves him. I love him. It was so difficult to put him in a crate at the end of the night, because we just wanted him to sleep next to us. I wish I could include a photo or video of him in my review, so you guys could see how adorable he is! Anyway, obviously do your research as to where you get your dog, but Honest pet is a great place to look.

HONESTY
I'd been looking for over a year for my forever fur baby. I got scammed 3 times.
But when I came across Honest Pets, from the very first time, I felt safe. I never give my credit information online to anyone, but I felt safe.
I prayed that God would direct me to Honest people, and he did. So, I Thank you for making me feel safe and for this Beautiful Baby Girl Wendy. I changed her name to Rosie and she already knows when I call her. So thank you again for you kindness and your Honesty.

Great matchmaking!
Ive been looking for a calm cavapoo for a while now. I work from home, and my job is incredibly strenuous. Because of that, i dont have much flexibility to have a more high maintenance, energetic puppy in my home. Nevertheless, i still wanted the companionship and i told a member of the team about these requests. She ended up finding me a trained puppy on the calmer end. Her description was honestly perfect, and the puppy was the absolute sweetest girl when i met her on facetime. My puppy arrived a couple days ago, and she's exactly how the rep described her. Shes napping on my lap as I type this.

i love my cavapoo
My experience with Honest pet was wonderful. I felt very taken care of throughout the entire process. First, Sue called me almost immediately, and she was very patient when trying to help me select my puppy. she showed me three different dogs, and then I ended up selecting my chocolate cavapoo. Honestly, the video call also brought this entire experience to life. Her personality is so sweet and hyper. I could just tell she had such a big personality, that I got her right then and there. Anyway, everything was so seamless, and an honestpet lady sent me an updated video right before my baby was delivered. I completely fell in love with my dog, and I am so grateful for this experience!
