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!

puppies234.com - Puppy Mill

We were trying to buy a puppy which showed a price with delivery included however we asked for a lesser price as we were picking up the puppy at the "breeder". The "breeder" kept coming up with excuses on why he was not available after he said we could pick up the puppy. Then we offered full price but still wanted to pick up and see where the puppy came...

Laneā€™s House of Shepherds - Sold Me a 3yr. old GSD with severe arthritis, and hip dysplasia

Mr. Lane sold me a 3 yr. old German Shepherd Female. He assured me that she was in good health. I had her vet checked when I got home because her left hip didnā€™t look right. X-rays confirmed that she has severe arthritis, and hip dysplasia. She was also abused. She jumps at every little sound, and cowers. I emailed him right away, and asked for my money...

RE: BlackGold Bulldogs puppymill. I work for a pet ground shipping company and we had to stop taking dogs for this BlackGold Bulldog breeder.

Zwinger von der Helden Kreuz - Rottweiler Breeder not standing by agreement

This is a long story, so I will try to give the "condensed" version here and then elaborate as opinions and questions come in. We purchased a 14 week old Rottweiler puppy on March 25 2011 for $1500 from John M Shanebrook at Zwinger von der Helden Kreuz Rottweilers in Santa Monica. Talked in depth with him prior to purchase about our family dynamics, namely...

Royalty Akitas - Don Van Dermyden - Royalty Aitas - Don Van Dermyden Complaint

I think potential Akita buyers should be aware that Don Van Dermydenā€™s Akitas CAN be very LARGE which increases the risk of leg problems. I purchased a dog from Don Van Dermyden of Royalty Akitas ( or Royaltyakitas on Donā€™s business cards) back in 2009 and I put that same dog to sleep a year and half later in 2010 because she tore BOTH back leg ACL and...

ASDR - Bad Business and breeding

I have been breeding mini aussies for 2 years. I have had very good dealings with dog breeders ---some good, some bad. I test all my dogs (one left to do) and care for them like my children. I am very selective on the homes they go to and will not place a dog with someone I think will use them as a money maker. I separate animals during heat cycles and...

Nicole Blodgett - Sells Dying Puppies

Nicole Blogett sold us a Parvo puppy that died, too. The puppy had Parvo when we bought her, but we didnā€™t know that at the time. Our vet diagnosed the puppy a couple days after we bought her. I saw the test. It was a strong positive for Parvo. The puppy was dead within a week. Nicole is hiding behind a "no warranty" clause. She said the puppy was ā€œoffā€...

If you purchase a dog from her and have trouble your calls will not be returned and you'll be out the money you paid. There is no puppy lemon law with regard to...
