I bought Emily when she was 2 1/2 months old from PS. I bought Winston from different third party. Emily cost $1000 more than Winston. I could not speak with the breeder of PS’s puppy, but I did speak to Winston’s breeder, many times, and was able to ask questions about Winston. She even sent me a video of Winston😊 Now, PS offers that 10yr Health Commitment, which is a marketing deploy to give the consumer peace of mind, which helps you justify spending much more money on the pup. BUT when something happens they wiggle out of it just as an insurance company does. Example. Emily (from PS) is the perfect dog by far, she does not get table scraps nor does she get treats. Which are things you do not do. When Emily turned 1yr old a week later get got sick and had to go to the ER. Her blood tests showed her Amylase and Lipase were off the charts, the ER said her results are most consistent with gastrointestinal upset or mild pancreatitis. Now Emily has never been sick, eaten table food or treats. And now she will have to eat prescribed low-fat food for the rest of her life, at 1yr old. And if you do not know prescription food is three times more than other foods. A responsible breeder performs blood tests and removes those dogs with undesirable traits. I wasn’t asking PS to pay the full amount of the ER bill, or the fact she has to eat prescribed food for life, I only asked for $500.But after several emails back and forth I’m told, they want a veterinary to make a confirmed diagnosis that Emily does have pancreatitis. The blood levels were enough for the ER veterinarian to make the call, but not enough for PS?! I asked PS if they were going to pay the extra $1000’s for those extra tests to get that ‘confirmed’ diagnosis? And they would not answer that. So, decide for yourself. Is it worth spending an extra $1000 and more with PS? There are other third parties where you get more…

The 12 week old puppy we purchased has kennel cough. The puppy coughed our whole ride home . Service with salesperson was good until after payment then hard to get in touch with people.

The puppy I picked does not look like the puppy I received The poor thing came to me smelling like they bathed her urine. Was told she couldn't come until 2.5lbs took her to the vet she was 2.1lbs. She also has an umbilical hernia. I am keeping her because even though I didn't pick her she is adorable and needs love. I will not be using puppy spot again. PS vet thinks the puppy pic are AI all except the video the video does look like the puppy I received .

While our beautiful golden retriever arrived safe and sound we immediately found out that he had eye infections, stomach parasites, and fleas. Reflects very poorly on the breeders that PuppySpot is using if puppies are arriving with that many issues. Thank goodness our vet was able to treat all quickly and he is a health and happy growing puppy!

My daughter and her partner spent months looking for the right puppy. They came across PuppySpot and spent days scouring the site looking for their perfect puppy. Once Pinky was spotted my daughter knew she had found her perfect baby. In the beginning things went smoothly. Payment went through. Pinky was reserved. Everything seemed to be going as planned but then zero communication with the breeder, no updated photos, bare minimum communications with the site, but just enough to keep things rolling and thinking all if fine. Finally after weeks of waiting a date for delivery was given. According to the “breeders” paperwork, written up 13 days ago, Pinky’s weight was recorded at 3 pounds and was healthy to travel. Pinky, now Penny, arrived severely thin, dehydrated, lethargic without even the ability to drink water. Thinking it’s just a puppy getting used to the new surroundings and recovering from a long travel day, all the necessary food, supplements, and medications were purchased to help her get over the hump. They were in love. Penny was taken to the vet early the next morning and given fluids, supplements and tested for anything that would cause this now 2 pound puppy to be so sickly. When after 48 hours and unable to lift her head the vet rushed her to the emergency vet hospital. There it was determined this precious, innocent little light had been neglected and starved. Loosing a third of her body weight in the 10 days before getting to her forever home, all measures were taken to try and save her life. CPR was performed, but sweet Penny crossed the rainbow bridge just 36 hours after becoming the center of her parents lives. My daughter is crushed. Knowing that precious Penny was neglected to such a horrific extent either at the “breeders” or in transport haunts her. If you can’t speak to and get information straight from the Breeder that is a huge Red Flag! If it takes days to get a return call or email Red Flag! If you do not get updated photos/videos of your puppy Red Flag!! If the site will not give contact information and link you up with the breeder caring for your puppy that is the biggest RED FLAG!! We all get attached and fall in love with these beautiful babies but please remember our little Penny when considering using this site.

All PuppySpot wants to do is get in your pocket for more money, more Money! The puppy that was purchased is great and cute as can be. But, I’ve been inundated with emails about buying: insurance , a puppy welcome kit and delivery of approx. $850.00 They wanted to sell me for $110. Registration to AKC. It’s my understanding that these hybrid dogs (when I was a kid that called them a mixed breed) THAT AKC WILL NOT ALLOW THEM TO BE REGISTERED AS THEY ARE NOT A RECOGNIZED BREED. SO BUYER BE WARE. IT’S YOUR BUSINESS IF YOU WANT TO SPEND THAT KINDA OF MONEY ON A MIXED BREED AS I DID. HOWEVER, remember that is no AKC on mixed breeds. That question alone, asking if I want to spend a $110. For AKC registration is false advertising. All this happens before you even get a puppy. So if you just want a puppy and not a lot of sales pitches, find another company. The price you send on these dogs, and you can’t have them reproduce? That’s wrong too. The price I paid, I should be able to do anything I want with this puppy. I all most called the whole deal off. And just for the record I was not interested in breeding my puppy, I just don’t like my rights being taken away from me!

They have a huge selection of dogs. The date they show available should be the date you are able to get the dog you choose. I had to wait over a month longer then the date shown available due to weight travel restriction which I do understand is for the safety of the animal. I had some concerns/issues but now they have just ignored me knowing there is an issue. I had this puppy one day and had to take him to the groomer because he was so badly matted. Got him on Friday by Thursday he had to be seen at the vet and tonight he is now admitted into the emergency with over $3k in bills which is more than I even paid for him. All I was asking was simple questions like are you sure what food he was given and they won't even respond. Do not ever buy a puppy from them especially this breeder out of OH Wayne Burkholder. I also now question the vet that signed off on his health because this poor puppy's body is shutting down and very well could pass away and these people dont even care. I also now question why they said he was too small to travel maybe because they knew there was an issue with him not eating. I expect vet bills but over 3k in the first 4 days we have him is unacceptable. So now I have a loan for a puppy that could pass away within the next 24 hours. This is a very shameful way to do business. Do not ask me to revise my experience again like you did before. People need to know the truth so they are not left hurt like we have been even before the poor little arrived. Worst experience to put a family through after they just got done grieving the loss of another family pet a few months prior. Thanks for the heartache!!

Communication throughout this process has been very limited. We requested photos several times and did not receive them. We drove over 450 miles to pick up the puppy, and only 14 hours before pickup we were informed she has an umbilical hernia. While we understand this condition can be manageable, being asked to pay the full price of over $4,000 under these circumstances is very concerning. I have now emailed twice and have not received a response. This is not simply about the cost — it’s about transparency, responsiveness, and reasonable expectations when making a significant purchase. At this price point, we expected clear communication and a healthy puppy.
