The whole process for Jewel was handled wonderfully. I was given updates from the beginning to when she was delivered to us. I would highly recommend this company.

Excellent Process everyone was professional and helpful.

Everyone from start to delivery has been amazing!

It wasn't the hoops I had to jump through to get Sam although I see it's the red tape of running a business such as Pawrade. It wasn't the higher than I would expect price of delivery, which by the way prompted me to drive the 1200 mile round trip, which also was no fun. What made this a truly memorable experience was the pot of gold at the end of my rainbow\journey, Sammy the corgi. He is most likely like most corgis, the difference is, he's MY corgi and blended with my three bull terriers like they were littermates. Yes, Sam made my day.

I deeply regret choosing to work with PetPay and Pawrade due to their failure to uphold basic ethical standards and accountability in their breeding practices. My puppy, Lucas, was diagnosed with cryptorchidism, a hereditary condition where one of his testicles failed to descend, and the other was underdeveloped. This condition is entirely preventable with RESPONSIBLE BREEDING and proper genetic screening—yet neither Pawrade nor their breeder took the necessary precautions. Despite the seriousness of this issue, both companies have refused to take responsibility, hiding behind contractual loopholes rather than addressing the ethical concerns or making meaningful changes. Please know people, IT IS UNETHICAL TO BREED DOGS WITH THIS TERRIBLE GENETIC CONDITION. Lucas’ condition has long-term health risks, requires surgery, and increases the likelihood of testicular cancer. Yet, Pawrade dismissed it as a “minor” issue, and please know this hereditary issue will not cover the health guarantee window—even though cryptorchidism often cannot be diagnosed in newborn puppies. In most puppies, both testicles should descend into the scrotum by 6 to 8 weeks of age, and almost all will have descended by 4 months. However, veterinarians usually wait until about 6 months of age to make a definitive diagnosis of cryptorchidism — the condition where one or both testicles fail to descend and will not descend at all. Their reliance on this technicality is designed to protect themselves, NOT the animals or their customers. Cryptorchidism is GENETIC — meaning the puppy inherits it from the parents. If a male dog has it, he should NEVER be bred, because he can pass the condition down. Even if only one testicle is affected, the dog is still considered cryptorchid and SHOULD NOT be used in breeding. To be clear: this is not a case of a “testicle that may descend later.” Veterinary professionals confirmed that this is a congenital defect—the testicle will not descend—and that this condition is genetically inherited and requires surgical correction to prevent serious health consequences. Brushing it off as “common” is irresponsible and misleading. What’s most troubling is that their contract seems to excuse unethical breeding practices, allowing them to continue working with breeders who fail to prevent genetic defects. By supporting such breeders, Pawrade perpetuates irresponsible breeding that harms both the dogs and the families who welcome them into their homes. If this happened to your puppy — would you still call it ‘a minor issue’? Would you trust a company that knowingly breeds animals with preventable, inherited conditions just to make a profit? All Pawrade does is gaslight the comments that bring up real problems instead of solving the issue. Just go around and read other reviews—they consistently dismiss serious experiences like mine and deflect instead of taking accountability. We followed every procedure they required, every step they outlined — and still, we were left without support. I truly hope no other family has to experience the heartbreak and betrayal we did by trusting a company that puts policy over compassion. I trusted Pawrade to provide a healthy, ethically bred pet, and they have failed to meet that promise. Potential customers should know that this company prioritizes legal protections over ethics, transparency, and animal welfare. If you value responsible breeding, honesty, and accountability, I strongly urge you to reconsider choosing Pawrade or PetPay. Unethical breeding isn’t just a mistake — it’s a choice. And every time it’s excused, another animal pays the price.

We received our mini bernadoodle today through pawrade! We couldn't be any happier! It was a perfect experience! Thank you so much for the adorable angel you delivered to our family today!

Our new beautiful puppy Nasir "Cooper" arrived safe, sound and healthy. Pawrade did an amazing job from start to finish. We knew what was happening at his vet puppy visit and the travel itinerary was very complete.

Parade is a great company for getting your new dog. I got my white German Shepherd puppy almost a week ago, and she's a wonderful pup. Parade and petpay made the entire purchase easy and they answered my questions and concerns immediately. I was able to follow my pup as she was being driven to me from Arkansas to Florida, and got updates from the drivers each step of the way. My pup arrived happy and healthy, and put a big smile on my face! Everything went perfectly, from start to delivery. I highly recommend Pawrade/PetPay to anyone looking for a super canine addition to their family! Wish there were a way to post a picture or 2 for you!
