I liked PuppySpot
I liked PuppySpot. They were very thorough with questions about home design, fenced yards, and our history with other pets; plus a long list of other pertinent questions. However, with actual the puppy delivery, things got complex. PuppySpot said the dog had to be 2 lbs. and 8 weeks old, with a vet check, to travel. PuppySpot didn't want us to contact the breeder, but the breeders name was easy to ascertain. When we contacted the breeder she said she wanted our dog to be 9 weeks old, and would like to meet us in person. We communicated the 9 weeks requirement to PuppySpot and they understood but travel plans with American Airlines seem to be slow and apparently somewhat difficult to arrange. SOOO. We decided to get the puppy ourselves. We burned a few Alaska Airlines frequent-flyer miles and flew to Chicago, then drove to the breeders home in Shipshewana Indiana. We talked with them for about an hour, they gave us a very informative booklet about Wiggy, and gave us a very nice travel dog carrier. We drove slowly back to Chicago to give Wiggy lots of stops to pee and poo. Wiggy charmed everyone at the Alaska Airlines Gate in O'Hare, and then we flew home. He is a great little dog, we love him a lot. We thank PuppySpot for their efforts to get us this puppy. Even though the actually physical connection with the dog was our choice and was due to the seeming slowness of puppy transport arrangements, I still gave you 5 stars because overall you were good where it counted about insuring we would be a good home for Wiggy, and it isn't your fault that we changed our minds (read: got impatient) about how to actually get the puppy home from Indiana. Thanks a lot folks. Matt Andrews Nancy Egaas Matt
