I bought a puppy from this guy back in may. He's a teddy bear breed which is shih tzu/Bischon mix. Mom was suppose to be an imperial shih tzu and weighed 9lbs dad weighed 7lbs. Never saw the parents cause nobody was allowed at his place cause of germs he said. So he met me down the street at a gas station. I paid $25 just to see the puppy and it was non refundable. Plus the $800 for the puppy's also charged me tax which I thought was weird. He's just a con artist that's not even American and shouldn't even be allowed in the U.S. he was a creepy pervert and made the sale uncomfortable. I'm pretty certain he has a puppy mill and over breeding his female dogs which is really sad. My little baby weighs 13lbs and is 4months old. I love him so much and wouldn't trade him for anything but he's just not as small as I was told he'd be. This guy is a liar and he deserves to be shut down! Idk what else I can do. I just hope someone sees this who maybe thinking about buying a puppy or who has that can agree with me.

I bought a dog from Dean in 2019. He does lie about size. The parents of dog both were 4 lbs. I stressed to him I wanted a very small dog. He assured me, this would be tiny. I’m sorry but 4 to 15 lbs is a huge size difference that my dog is. You can’t tell me the parents were 4 lbs. I told him I wanted a black dog. The dog smelled funny. I bathed this dog and over time it kept getting lighter. I have a gray dog. My dog also has an overbite and a crooked nose. He met me at the same creepy gas station. I was glad my husband came along. It was weird because he never said it was a gas station over our text about the dog and meeting. I assumed I was meeting at house like I had my other dogs from breeders. I saw this puppy and felt sorry for it. It was like I had to rescue it. On my way home, I asked some questions and he got really nasty and called me names. It was awful. I hated that I had given him so much money but I also felt sorry for all the other dogs and people who would have to fall for his nasty mouth and creepy ways. I feel sorry for probably what those dogs and puppies are actually living in since no one can actually see what’s really going on. People don’t buy from a Breeder who will not show u parents or atleast one. There is no reason you can not see all the other dogs. Germs is bull. As long as your not touching them. Hand washing will sanitize Dean! You just don’t want anyone to know where you live or the conditions is my guess because it’s shady!

My family and I have known and loved Dean for at least 10 years. He is a man of God and family and of course his animals . You can be sure to know your puppy will be healthy and hardy . He goes out of his way to keep the general public away from the animals until purchase . These are difficult times in the middle of a pandemic . Dean must protect his family and his animals from any sickness or diseases. I appreciate his care of these animals . I know I can trust him and I’m sure you can also trust him . Not only has he helped me with my tiny puppy before the sale but he continues to be my support for any questions of care .
It is really disturbing to read such hateful and racists comments ! YES Dean you DO belong in this country because you are such a good person and father . You are the very best caregiver of these precious puppies . Thank you for being in our life. My husband, son, and I all appreciate you and we look at you as extended family . Our lives are better because you are in it . I was born and raised in Louisville but the racism and hatred is at an all time high now and very embarrassing . If you are looking for a a puppy this man is for YOU ! But beware because he puts the health and safety of his animals first before customers . Get a puppy from Dean and have an honest fun loving friend ( and puppy ) for LIFE !
And btw he is only a mere mortal and cannot predict the size of a full grown animal . But he is very upfront and honest about the parents of his animals . God Bless

I had a wonderful experience getting my cute little guy from Dean. I had previously been ripped off by a guy over the net and because of that experience I was very nervous. Dean sympathized with my situation and made me feel very comfortable. He met me in a public place that made me feel comfortable and talked to me for a long while about everything I needed to do to care for my new puppy. He told me if I had questions to call him anytime. Dean was very nice and respectful and seemed to really care about the puppy he provided. He had a wonderful personality and followed through with everything promised to me. If I ever need to buy another puppy, I will certainly look to him first. Wonderful experience! - Hillary

We adopted our puppy from Deans puppy's a few weeks ago and would do it again.For anyone looking to adopt a puppy i highly recommend Dean. Not only does he care about the health and safty of his puppies but more importantly his family. Which is why i understand why he doesnt want anyone coming to his home.

I got the same nasty response when all I did was ask about a puppy for my child . He is so a pervert and I see people saying he’s a man of god and how can anyone buy off of this guy he’s such a pervert and talks nasty to women. He don’t want people coming to his home because of puppy mill is my guess and if this guy has a wife then why treat women like dirt .

I just got a puppy from him for my 19 birthday. I can’t speak for others but from a young female perspective I had a great experience with him. He met me at a public place I was comfortable with. He talked to me about the puppy for almost thirty minutes and told me all about the dietary needs and shots. He was funny and cracking jokes the whole time. It was a pleasant experience and I would buy a puppy from him again anytime!

We just absolutely adore the Pomibear that Dean bred. He is the absolute best. Wonderful around children, personality for days, and utterly adorable. A bit of a little rascal sometimes, but we love that. Crazy smart and and as cute as they come! I think he was born late 2016 or early 2017. We take him everywhere, and just got back from a month in Colorado, and he does great on long road trips. Thank you Dean for such an amazing dog! And the fact that he is hypoallergenic is a big deal since several of us have allergies, and we really don't like dogs that shed since their hair winds up getting on everything. But not our amazing Lucky! No hair anywhere.

And for whatever reason, he never stinks. It's crazy but he doesn't. He gets bathed only when we take him in for grooming about every 4 months and doesn't ever stink in between those visits. I don't know how you do it, but kudos! He's awesome!

People watch this guy he is very strange had a bad experience with him over the phone that changed my mind about him and his dogs aren't even that cute but watch his a pervert. He said he was doing a drawing for a dog and I wanted to be in it thin I texted him he acted like a pervert a first asking strange question about me then he turned in to a smart [censored] after he seen that I was just wondering about a dog he is scary very scary by the question he was asking and nasty it's to nasty what he said that why I can't put it on here and it's embarrassing for me . And all I wanted to know was about his animals for my children and he started saying i bet you're hot and more that was really weird to me I told my husband and he was like we will buy somewhere else because we don't know him from Adam and he could be anything that's why I wouldn't take the chance don't see how people purchase anything off of him because it seems like he try's to offer puppies for you know what so gross ladies be careful he's a creep and if you do get a puppy don't go alone.

I have bought two puppies from Dean, several years apart from each dog. Dean is a little odd but I do think he has a kindred spirit with dogs. This man had a true passion for what he does and he doesn’t care if he doesn’t word things perfectly. I do guarantee that most all his puppies are 💯 percent healthy! My puppies were in the best of health and they’re 7 & 5 years old now. People if you want a very healthy puppy Dean will deliver on that promise, he might say something rude/different but his only concern is those dogs. I’d still buy another one from him! You have to overlook some of the differences because he is very knowledgeable & helpful if he thinks you’re a good fit.

Here is Dean's puppies. Dean doesn't sell puppies to stupid people, or ignorant or disrespectful or not understanding or to people he feels that are irresponsible even to people who doesn't include Hi in the beginning of their text msg or to people with negative energy or with bad attitude. Dean doesn't need to defend him self his pups can speak for him. All haters and racist and those who get pissed of because can't afford Dean, puppies price get a life. He sells all his puppies only to good people not to trashy negative like the above ones.

Look I had same experience with him and he was the one who acted rude and disrespectful and ignorant all I wanted to know is how to put a name on a list . I didn't ask for the way he treated me and I told him by the way he talked to me was wrong and he is very rude and arrogant so no thanks I'll buy else where if he wants to sell puppies change his attitude the way he talks to people it's not nice to treat people that way

Thanks you all for the comments, it really helps. I was thinking to get a puppies from him but since the beginning it sounds very fishy. I asked for pictures and he sent me the old link from the site, then I sent a picture asking for another pic and he said that his screen phone broke. Come on! If you selling something you MUST to be able to provide pics. So he told me to come and see the puppy but I will hace to pay $50🧐 also sounds strange because according to his site they don’t show puppies because the germ 🦠 . It didn’t sound right to me and here I am reading you all comments. He might not be a pier but he is very strict on his selling process, so he should be more transparent with the deal.

You are nothing but unhappy racist Bxxxch. breeders are not God. There is something called recessive gene in dogs which control the size of a puppy to be either smaller or larger than its parents so God only knows what size a puppy will be when becomes full grown not the breeder. Who do you think you are to Judge someone to be allowed in the USA or not did you know where your grand father came from? Or do you even know who is your real Dad is ? and why paying tax is weird to you? A liscenc breeder must charge tax and you must obay the low. You are nothing but a whiny B×××ch, unhappy with your self no mater what you get. At least you got a puppy that was complimented by your vet health and look wise. Next time get your puppy from a breeder like you who will sell you a puppy filled with parasites, worms, flease and parvo. Get a life whooooore.

He owns the human society [censored]. Did you know that Dean made them change their rules to No touch policy. In the past people were allowed to touch and handle puppies at the shelter but Dean made them change their policy where no one can touch or pet or handle the animals there. The result was, that the sickness of animals their decreased to 75%
Dean is not one of the filthy breeders like you, he is well educated [censored]. We love Dean and we love the puppy we got from him even our vet was impressed. [censored] you [censored] nasty [censored].

He has a lot of people fooled and I’m not one of them because I believe everything that this women are saying. People are saying man of god now that is stretching the truth he is rude and makes nasty comments to you for no reason and is a smart a— .

You are just helping the case of all the women that said you had nasty language and rude and like we don’t know who you are . You are a liar and a puppy mill and not worried about the animals but money to charge someone 25 or 50 dollars to see a puppy is robbing someone and you are nasty pervert.

It’s him and you can tell only he would get upset at the truth and he is very nasty and mean. I would never buy a dog off of this guy he is a pervert and talks like trash and ask personal questions like I bet your hot when I just asked about a puppy for my kid he is a sick pervert and lies .
