This website is fake, they take your PayPal money then you get no dog. The pictures of the puppies are from real peoples social medias they stole the images from. If you copy and paste the picture in google it will show the actual places and pics come from. These scammers have several sister websites that take your money. People have YouTube videos on these scammers and this website PLEASE READ

We've had our Corgi puppy for a month. He came to us and started in with diarrhea, ear yeast infection,and Giardia! Have spent over $700.00 in vet bills and puppy still has diarrhea. He has been on medication since we brought him home. Terribly disappointing to know they are selling sick puppies to unsuspecting customers. I do NOT recommend them.

I am trying to make everyone aware of a breeder in Fresno,Ohio. We bought a puppy from Norman Mast. Very questionable conditions. Showed us the mother and the father and the mother could not even walk. She was so neglected. Tried to text Norman Mast today to ask if our teddy bear dog was a gray blue merle. These are known for hearing and vision problems. From the parents, they told us was hers, there is no way we could have a blue merle, but I'm pretty certain she is. When asking him about this nicely, he blocked me from his cell phone number. The only way to contact him. Red flag everyone. Please do not support puppy mills. The Mast family is big into this. There is a Sam Mast who was on the puppy mill list. They are all related. We need to shut these places down one tragedy at a time. Very curious also about what happens to the poor mom and dad once their breeding years and money making days are over. Hope Buckeye Puppies does not delete this post. Super important.

Buyer Beware
April 23, 2024

Scam artist and cons are using this site. Also these large USDA puppy mills produce a lot of pups at our rageous prices. Beware of dapple/merle pups. As some of these uneducated mills breed dapple to dapple or merle to merle to get more merle/dapple pups in a litter. These pups then can have eye, ear and other health problems from this bad genetics. I bought pup that was Akc registered and when I got pedigree to see background of pup the pedigree was full of unregistered dogs which were transfered from a pet registry. Even Akc is accepting anything for registry. It's all about the coins the integrity and dignity of registration has been discarded for the almighty dollar. Like these large breeding facilities where parent of pups are treated like livestock. Then when they no longer can produce they end up at swap meets,rescues,humane societies or put down. Same with any pups that can't be sold. Find a repeatable honest breeder where quality is more of a concern than quantity.

I was looking at a puppy for a while and the website said that the pup was still available, I texted them asking if he was and all I got was "no" that's it. And it still says the pups available. Unprofessional.

Hello Tess, We are sorry to hear that you had a negative experience with a breeder on our website. It is unfortunate that the puppy that caught your eye was no longer available. I checked our website and see that the puppy "Tanner" is no longer available, so it is possilbe that the puppy had just sold and the breeder had not yet marked him sold. I did see that they have another puppy, "Hunter" available. It's too bad that the breeder did not inform you of any other options or pups that were available. Communication is very important and unfortunatley communication via text message can be taken in the wrong light. We hope that you were able to find a puppy that catches your eye, and if not, we wish you the best in your search for your new furry companion.

Buyers beware
June 21, 2023

Wanted a Pom saw her on line thought I was corresponding to the breeder with info on the pups parents but she was the middle person. Gave me an address to an Armish farm. Traveled 5 hours. Saw pup purchased what I was told was a Pom for $950. Only to find out now the dog is a mixed breed of three different lineages. Buyers beware

We bought a mix breed puppy off this site rather than rescuing (which is what I usually do) and I went against my better judgement. This pup was a lot older than what we were told, had never seen a vet and they met us at a public place and wouldn't let us see either parent or where they were being kept. Everything that screams puppymill. I handed over the money and the pup was handed to my son. He has a major defect with his penis and requires thousands of dollars in surgery to fix it because it was left like that for so long. How can someone ignore something so obvious like that. Would not recommend

Great experiment
May 26, 2023

I reached out about a female, 11 week old Shiba Inu. The response was immediate. He offered me to come onsite to see the pup. I made the 3 hour drive to Millersburg, Ohio ( Amish town). The home and land was extremely clean. Him and his wife showed me the parents. My pup aaa the last of litter. They gave me Akc paperwork and shot records. A small bag of puppy food and never required a deposit. We have had our puppy just a few days. But so far e eeytgibg seems ok. She has a vet appointment in 2 weeks though. I would definitely purchase another pup from this breeder in the future.

We got our Boo from an Amish breeder in Indiana. We didn't know this until after we arrived and we weren't going to leave without her. Motivated by fear from all the puppy mill stories, we went straight to our vet. We ran every test we could and had all her vaccines re-done incase her paperwork had been falsified in anyway. At home, we quarantined her from pets of friends and family.
It's been a year, never a problem, and she's still perfectly healthy. My heartbreaks for those who lived a nightmare.
We got lucky!? I don't know. But Boo has been a dream come true and we couldn't be happier. So happy in fact, tomorrow, we are going to get her a sister...(2nd pic)

The puppy we adopted was listed as vet checked, up on vaccines and microchiped. When we went to get her I asked how we transfered her microchip to us and was told she is not microchiped when asked about vet checked he told us that he does not take his dogs to the vet - he just gets info from other breeders. We got there 1/2 hour early and she was getting a bath she still smelled a little like poop. I never would have left that dog there! She's a great little dog and we love her to pieces but I would never get another pet through internet advertizing! And we never got a bill of sale.

Beware of parvo
February 26, 2023

We bought 2 puppies 10 weeks old and they both have Parvo. We didn't have any paperwork from the seller. We can't prove anything but we don't care as much about the money as we do the fact that he still has puppies for sale on the website after we told him ours were sick. He can continue to sale sick puppies that will likely suffer and die without hospitalization. $2600 later, ours will make it. Cruel to breed if your farm is contaminated. Beware buyers. Forget getting help from humane society m or A.S.P.C.A. We keep getting referred to different agencies. Now it's ohio dept. Of agricultural. What a shame.

So I was lucky enough to have the sweetest cutest and loving mini golden-doodle ever. But this site support puppy mills at its finest. I drove two hours from Toledo to apples Creek Ohio. She looked so small in her pictures but when I picked her up the Amish breeder was shock that I was black person then try to tell me how take care of my golden doodle but didn't tell me she didn't have any of her shots but lie on the ad saying Lindsay was up to date. Lindsay was only 3 months when I bought her home. She had ear infection bad sooo thanks to the breeder that try tell me how to take care of her hair instead of actually getting the dog shots and check up on her health DONT BUY FROM HERE PLEASE ITS ALL Amish PUPPY MILLS

STAY AWAY!
July 11, 2024

I found a breeder named "moose" on this site in June of 2020 which is associated with Pine acres puppies…I purchased a French Bulldog that was from OHIO and I picked her up from a handler in NJ… right out of the gate, this dog was diagnosed with congenital pulmonary stenosis, Her first six months she constantly had a parasite she had diarrhea. She was vomiting. She had bloody diarrhea. Finally after getting All of that Under control and on a really good food, she did well for a little while until she started to develop a strange spasm in both of her back legs. The vet noted that her back legs were much longer back than the French bulldog. The spasms in her legs started when she was five months old. Then she developed a seizure disorder, Then she developed cancer … the spasms never stopped and They continued until July 5 of this year 2024 where the spasms started to take over her life and started to happen in her front paws as well… for the past six months I watched my poor girl suffer from Seizures And these debilitating spasms that were result of neurological problems in her genes. On 7/5/2024 at just 4 years old I had to say goodbye to buy Sophie …her suffering was taking over her life, she didn't play anymore she was becoming aggressive with her pain and all 18 pills she took a day were not helping! Please I beg you stay away from any breeder named moose in Ohio associated with Pine acres puppies …I'm beyond heartbroken that I had to put her to sleep to end her misery and continue my own. I spent thousands of dollars on this dog, Over the past four years thankful she had insurance, but the bills were still extremely high. This poor dog had to go to the vet constantly, including the emergency vet her last few days. She was so restless she could not get comfortable. There was nothing I could do for this poor girl except her free so she could run wild without any pain

Fleas!
September 10, 2022

I bought my dog this morning and she's amazing but unfortunately was never treated or checked for fleas. She's infested with them! Make sure when you buy a puppy from them you check and ask if they actually have given their puppy proper treatment…informed the breeder and said she never checked for them.

Rescued
January 21, 2023

Saw yorkshire terrier puppy advertised in Bluffton, Indiana for $625. Made arrangements to pick up puppy next day, Paul tells me puppy is well socialized, time with his kids, etc. I get there and there's a huge outside chain link kennel, puppy had never been inside. I pay and then told "no, she's $800", said someone else must have changed the price. This was a straight up puppy mill, brought her home with me after telling him what I thought. Poor thing is terrified, glued to my side. Shame on them! So glad I rescued her. Hoping Indiana officials see this and take action!

I found my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel from a breeder on this website. She is perfect. Now almost 10 months old. Healthy, smart, playful.
While I support rescue it wasn't for me at this time in my life. CKCS rescue have long wait lists, and the fee's $$$. My Amish breeder was raising one kind of dog in there home, with there children helping. The puppy's were very well cared for. Vet checked, vaccinated Microchip and came with a one-year health guarantee. My puppy is AKC registered.

This website is strictly an advertising board for Amish Puppy Mills. Cheap, dirty and unhealthy puppies and they really don't seem to care. Steer clear.We got a female Golden Retriever that turned out to have a congenital heart murmer and conjunctivitis in both eyes. We got a "sorry" from them and a very expensive bill from our vet.

We bought a Cairn Terrier puppy from an Amish family in Centerville, IN. I can't really say that they are what I consider to be a "puppy mill". They have 4 females that they breed. The shelter that the dogs had was actually nicer than the house... in my opinion. The dogs were all well cared for, socialized and happy.
I felt like they really loved the dogs. The price was comparable to what rescues are charging for adoptions and honestly, I didn't have to jump through the hoops that the rescues were making us do. She had been to the vet and got a clean bill of health at our vet. So no complaints! We love our spunky little girl and she fits right in with the family of kids, dogs, cats.

Great experience
September 20, 2021

We were successful in finding a wonderful, healthy mini Pompsky puppy through this site. I texted the seller and she immediately replied and even offered to reduce the price by $300. We drove 2.5 hours to central OH (Amish Country)and were able to see the entire litter in the front yard of the breeder's home. They were all clean, up to date on vaccinations and dewormer, microchpped, and vet checked.
We decided on a different puppy from the one we originally thought we wanted.
My advice is to not buy from anyone who requires a deposit or wants to deliver for an additional fee. It's important to go on-site to make sure it's not a mill.
