I was sceptical at first, but it was one of the best experiences you could hope for. I received my puppy as promised and I couldn't be happier. Everything was taken care of for me. All I had to do was pick him up at the airport. I would recommend Puppy Spot to everyone.

BEWARE, they are scammers, they will break your heart
If I could give them a zero star I would. I bought a female boxer puppy from Karla at Puppy Spot. During her speech / common run down, perhaps read from form langue. She got to the 10-year guarantee. She mentioned that if you breed the dog, your 10-year guarantee is over. I stopped her right there and said " Karla I intend on breeding this dog in 2 years" she said " That's ok it will just void your guarantee". The entire reason I would pay $4000.00 for a puppy is (to yes be a family dog) but certainly to breed it. I can buy a non-AKC boxer any day of the week for $500.00. She should have interceded then and told me that the puppies would never be able to be AKC registered. I would have never made the purchase, but we receive the puppy, get attached, go to register the puppy the following Monday, and then the sky starts falling. They had a 3rd party company call me (probably a subsidiary) and tell me it will be an additional $500.00 to register the puppy. I told them I would have to think about it. I immediately called AKC. Tamara at AKC told me, “that was not correct” that she could process the paper work, but puppy spot had sent them paper work for the "Canine Partners Program" non-breed or show. I explained to her that Karla at puppy spot had told me I could breed the dog it would just void the 10-year health guarantee. She told me to contact puppy spot, it was possible they (AKC) had received the wrong paper work. So, I called puppy spot to discuss the situation. I explained to the sales gal that answered the phone that I realized she was not the person I had talked to, but please hear me out. She told me that was in fact how they sold their puppies and that Karla should have disclosed that to me. She then transferred me to her manager Maria (to be honest I don’t think these are real names. They role play, its unimaginable). She defended Karla's actions and told me “she had my signature” that “she wasn’t going to allow me to start a puppy mill”. Unbelievable, who’s running a puppy mill, she has my signature (well that’s manager material there). Finally, she basically told me to pound dirt. Stay away from these people they will rip you off.
Well you couldn’t imagine things could get worse, but hold on. So, at 2:30 Monday afternoon we go to our veterinarian appointment with our local vet. This is to fill out the puppy spot supplied form for there supposed 10-year guarantee. The first thing she looked at were the shot records, she was appalled. They had given the puppy multiple shots in two-week intervals. She says “toxic”. Also, that it doesn’t do any good. You have to wait for the one shot to expire, then give it again, which they didn’t do. Well have to re-do her last two sets of shots. We had told her our puppy’s eyes were watering. Her diagnosis, Infection, prescribed a prescription. (noted as “no discharge” on puppy spots inspection. I’m pretty sure they will claim we did that in 4 days. Then the real horror, she (our vet) says there’s scar tissue on this puppy’s stomach, she’s had surgery. She might have been spayed or born with a hernia, it’s hard to tell. Finally, she says “I have so much to write on this form, can you please come back and pick it up tomorrow. Were lost, new at this. Beware they are a scam preying on gullible, honest people.
The breeders are Sugarfork Kennels Goodman MO 64843, Kenneth & Abigail Anderson (417) 364-8766. I have no issue with them at this time. I do however hold that in waiting and seek their sense of fairness in this matter. To do what is right and correct the AKC paper work. I do not at this time seek to return the puppy, we adore her. They do however have responsibility in the matter. They are the breeders and hire out their services to puppy spot. Which I know at this point is dishonest, lies and cheats. They will in fact laugh in your face, and will break your heart.

Of course it's all about the breeders
Of course it's all about the breeders, but Puppy Spot provides the connection. We could not be happier with the new addition to our family. Thanks to all!

Getting Ollie was so easy
Getting Ollie was so easy. I knew I wanted a female toy poodle puppy. I fell in love with her photo. Once I contacted puppy spot about her, everything was easy. Ollie arrived 3/12 and the love has grown. She is the perfect puppy and dealing with puppy spot was so ADT.

My purchase experience
I did not have a good experience with my puppy manager. She first told me there were no flights available to my city. We talked about other nearby cities. She called back and said they found a flight. When I asked to what city she didn’t know.

Do yourself a favor and get a puppy somewhere else!!!
Well the puppy I have is amazing, but when she was delivered to me she was so sick...after almost 9 months and many medical bills. Puppy Spot more than willing to help the whole time, came back to me when it was all said and done and only offered me $100. Very unprofessional, I would not recommend them.
Also after I had purchased my puppy and she was on the way I started seeing many awful reviews... DON'T use them!
