Best Dog Breeders and Kennels

Just a quick heads-up about our Dog Breeders section. šŸ¶ This page is all about those who're in the doghouse or top dogs in the breeding game. Our pack of reviewers has wagged their tails or barked out their thoughts loud and clear.
 
Sniffing out the trending section? Some breeders are fetching quite the buzz. But, like a game of fetch, some throws are off the mark. So, expect a few growls and howls in there.
 
Paws and reflect when you get a moment!

AdorableBulldogs.com - Scam/Lies

I purchased 2 english bulldog puppies on 4/8/16. I got two very sick puppies with Mange, pneumonia, and a host of other infections. The female has a luxating patella MPL a grade 3 out of 4 in severity and the male has a grade 2 heart murmur. I was told by Michelle the breeder that she would make this right by giving me healthier puppies or a partial refund...

Ladd Hill Labradoodles - Poor customer service

I have had a deposit in on a puppy for over a year. I chose to be on a floating list so that when the particular color and sex of the dog I wanted showed up, I would have right of first refusal. She ignored that. I signed up for a litter. She changed the colors that the dogs were expected to be. I signed up for yet another litter. This dog was due to be...

DzLegndary Samoyeds - Dog breeder samoyed

Danielle Ellis sold me a bad puppy under her company's name DZ Legendary. Five months old and he suffers from congestive heart failure. She refuses to give me another dog as per her contract because she wants me to continue over 1000+ dollars in additional tests even after I have a letter from my vet (a medical professional) saying those tests are not...

Vicki Davis - Selling Sick Puppies

On April 2, 2016, my husband and I got puppy, little did we knowā€”we were stepping in to something much larger and more heartbreaking than that. We wanted to get a playmate for our toy poodle, Lucy. I searched our trustworthy site, puppyfind.com and came across a listing for a blue-merle female toy poodle. It was too good to be true! She was a rare...

Big Elm Huskies - horrible experience! very rude, do not deal with her!

Tina is the owner and right off the bat I had bad feelings about dealing with her. She was very unprofessional, answering my emails with several typos and grammatical errors. Then she claimed to be a Vet Tech and to have worked several years in research, but she couldn't even put together a coherent sentence. She is a husky breeder and I currently own a...

Duglands German Shepherds - Puppiesdirect.com

As a breeder who worked with puppiesdirect/purebred breeders for many years I would caution any breeders thinking of getting involved with them. They make more money than the breeder does and when puppy gets sick on flight they expect the breeder to pay all compensation. Unless you plan to deliver your pups or use a delivery system other than flying be very...

Kika's Klee Kai - Pet breeder

I contracted for a puppy from Kika's Klee Kai (KKK) in 2014, and I had to send the puppy back due to personal circumstances. I received only $500 of the purchase price back, meaning KKK kept both the dog and most of my money - outright theft, in my opinion. I want to warn others that this is how KKK will act if given the opportunity.

Pgyorkies.com - Paid for puppy but was given smaller, sick puppy-unethical behavior

On 12/9/15 i visited pg yorkies and picked a puppy from a liter born on 11/22/15 according to their page on breeders.Net. I was the first to look at the puppies, 3 girls and 2 boys.

Landos Boxers - Cancer and Heart Problem

I got a dog from Landos Boxer 4 years ago. My dog had a heart mumur and died January 2016 with brain cancer. It is cruel to have such a bad breeder like that, breeding dogs with genetic diseases. In regards to the papers, well, never got them, and since I did not care about papers, I gave up requesting. My family is destroyed after loosing our dear loving...

Angels of Scotland Kennels (LLC) - Unethical, fraudulent

I had the "distinct displeasure" of dealing with this woman. She is cunning, conniving, threatening, using any method to extract from you what she wants, including running up unnecessary vet bills to use as leverage. If she shows you any paper stating that her dogs are from AKC lines with the prefix of Norwind or Northwind, she has absolutely NO RIGHT to...

Marlene Martin - Breeder - Dachshund puppy/ puppy mill dog

My daughter and I bought a dachshund puppy using puppy find website. We purchased the puppy from Marlene Martin in northern Indiana.

Majestic View Kennels - Dog breeder - native american indian dogs (naid)

Karen Markel of Majestic View sells Native American Indian Dogs (NAID) and mixes thereof for hypoallergenic traits and a wolflike appearance. While the NAID is a fantastic breed and I have had no allergy problems whatsoever, you should avoid this kennel like the plague. Karen does not breed for health OR temperament, and SO many people have had problem...

Our puppy, who is a member of our family and we love completely, has been diagnosed with perianal fistulas, which is an autoimmune hereditary disease.

Tropisch German Shepherds - My dog has hip dysplasia

In December 2014, I purchased a german shepherd puppy from Tropisch German Shepherds. When my puppy was 8 months, he started limping and it continued for a few days so I brought him to my vet. The vet gave him anti-inflammatory pills and the limping went away after a few days. The limping came back about a month later and again, I went to my vet and she...
