We found the breed we wanted not too far from home. He was available, answered texts and phone calls promptly, is a wonderful family breeder who loves his dogs. Just what we wanted to find. Reviews excellent. We met the puppies and make out choice, then picked up a week later at a half-way point which was great for us and our puppy too.
Ever since puppies.com took over puppy find.com, the amount of exposure went down drastically. I used to find homes for all my puppies through puppy find com. Now my puppies find homes through AKC marketplace and other websites. I hardly get any inquiries from puppies.com.
Love being able to filter, so I can find specific breeds near me.
Had used them about 6 years ago when I got my other puppy
We recently purchased a Jack Russel puppy on puppyfind.com
The seller Joelle was wonderful. Such a nice family she let us come meet the puppies first which we drove 3 hours to do so and was happy with the living arrangements of the puppies. Joelle takes great care of all of her dogs and puppies. We received all the information about the puppies and given a date when our puppy would be ready. Joelle even stayed in touch with me during the wait time and sent me pictures of our puppy she even offered to meet me closer to my house when the puppy was ready due to her delivering another puppy In my area. She provided us with paperwork about his vet check and how to register our puppy. Also gave us a collar, blanket and puppy food. Now that our little baby is home he is doing so good and such a good boy. Joelle has even texted me to check and see how we are doing. Great people and experience.
I wished I knew about this site long time ago. I it easy to find what you want, when you want and the right location. I have been searching for a great German Shepherd and prices was so high that it was like buying a use car. But on this site I was able to find everything I wanted for a great price. The best part is I did it from my home without the pressure to purchase. I picked up my dog the day I found him and he is great! The breeder even gave me food, a carrying cage and toy. Thank you

I recently purchased 2 puppies from Fluffy Pup. Asked Tracy R. To see the parents and gee, the parents weren't on premise. There are different breeds offered by this person. My puppies came complete with ear mites and giardia. The vet said he also suspected lice. This individual obviously got my puppies from a filthy environment just for the money. After weeks of constant cleaning of everything in their environment, medication, testing and not being able to properly start any training, I still have one dog testing positive. Here I go back to starting all over again. These vet bills are expensive on top of the initial cost of the puppies. [$999 each] I feel this individual does not care that these little babies have problems, only to make the almighty buck off of them. I do not recommend this dog broker,
Excellent experience, beautiful pup and so perfect for our family. Great exchange with the breeders, exactly what we expected. Highly recommend!
Wanted a quality puppy and great buying experience
Bought chow pup from ms king in amarillo thru puppyfind poor baby had no hips! He had to have surgery from a highly respected orthopedic surgeon when he was five months old for over ten thousand dollars ms king would do nothing except offer to resell him and puppyfind would do nothing at all as far as records of posted sale in order to go to court please accept my warning the puppy suffered terribly and ms king said the doctor did not know what he was talking about the surgeon was recommended by three different vets
Hello,
It's unfortunate that you have not had a good experience with that seller. Hopefully your dog is doing better.
PuppyFind.com is a bulletin board service and is used as a means of contact. Therefore we do not get involved in any transactions outside of the website, and we do not archive any deleted listings.
Hopefully you have been able to get things resolved with the seller.

First I have to say I love the new layout everything just looks pretty. But it doesn't work. What I don't like is that it's very hard to sell puppies there. Wish there was a way to boost/bump your listing to help sell puppies as before and it was free. Second there is no way I can send additional pictures or videos to the buyer only text or email. Third. Sometimes I just want to delete the message and it's there can't delete it. Really hate that. There is way more scammers contacting me then before. I have lost almost all interest in the puppies.com. Who cares how pretty the site has become what matters is that it works. I haven sold not a single puppy in over 5 months. I have 16 adds. Im tired of it. So I've contacted puppystop. I'll be switching over to them. Also looking for other websites to sell my puppies. Sometimes simple is better.
Hello,
Thank you for your feedback we do appreciate your comments. We are working on implementing a boost option that will be available very soon. We will also be adding the option to upload photos in the message center.
We work daily on removing scammers and have a Report button and Buyer Tips on every listing.
Again, we appreciate your feedback and we are hearing you. Hopefully you will give us another try once those things are active.

I contacted Puppy find and tried to write a review on a bad seller that was nothing more than a horrible puppymill. The Puppyfind website only supported the owner who pay them money. They could careless about the integrity of the puppies being sold.
Hello,
Due to the abuse of the review system we do allow sellers to dispute reviews they feel are invalid and if supporting documentation is received for a disputed review then it may be reinstated.
PuppyFind.com does not knowingly allow puppy mills to advertise on the site. Every seller/breeder goes through an approval process but as stated in our Terms of Service policy, because we are a bulletin board service we are not able to offer any guarantees that the individuals listing on the site are reputable breeders.
If you feel someone has been proven to be a puppy mill we ask for you to provide documentation (such as police reports or other evidence of legal action showing that the breeder is operating outside of the law) so that the seller in question may be investigated thoroughly as allegations alone are not sufficient evidence to have an account removed. If allegations are substantiated with these documents, then we will have the account in question removed from our site.
If you have additional questions regarding your review please contact support@puppyfind.com.

I have been a seller for years and had good business on the site now it's hard to navigate and the sales have definitely taken a deep dive because it's so complicated. The extra breed mixes are a plus but the simple searching is long gone and nobody has time for that
Tip for consumers:
Try harder to navigate
Hello,
Change is hard, especially trying to learn a whole new site. There will definitely be a learning curve, but hopefully users will enjoy the upgrades once they are comfortable navigating the site.
We appreciate your comments and they will be taken into consideration for future site improvements.

As a breeder, I used to post my puppies here and things seemed to run fairly smoothly. Over time there has been an explosion of new "breeders" and omg the puppies being sold are atrocious! They're sickly, no health testing done, nowhere near breed standard, being sold as purebred when they're clearly not. It's awful!
I stopped advertising for a while because I didn't want to be associated with the byb's and apparent mill-like breeders.
I ended up going back to the site after about a year or so and they changed it to where you have to pay to use it. Like, what? What kind of additional services are you offering? What kinds of safeguards for buyers and breeders alike, are you offering? What quality service have you added that warrants charging breeders a subscription to advertise when literally nothing has changed except for the fact that what once was free, isn't any longer? And on top of that, you're limited to how many photos or what info you can include. Like, what am I paying you for exactly?
Nothing is screened, breeders nor buyers. No one is required to show proof of health testing, licensure, vetting, etc.
I decided to pay to post a puppy. That puppy sold, and since nothing has changed except for the pay wall, I hadn't posted any more. But when I went to mark the puppy as sold, it's requiring me to renew the subscription in order to let people know that it's no longer available. No, I'm not doing that. I guess it'll just stay up there forever.
Hello,
We did make some changes to the site a couple of years ago, one of which was to require all sellers to pay for a membership.

I would be happy to help you get your listing marked as sold. I wasn't able to find an account under the email on your review. Please provide the email or phone number on your Puppies.com account and I will get your listing removed.
We appreciate your feedback and it will be taken into consideration for future site improvements.

Read good reviews and it seemed easy to find the type of puppy we wanted.
I used to look at puppyfind almost weekly. Over time, I found good breeders and purchased some precious pups. Now, it's nearly impossible to find what I'm looking for. I have stopped looking at puppies.com and no longer recommended it.

This site was very easy to navigate to find a reputable breeder in my area. Loved that they advertise how long the breeder has been on the site
Looking for a reputable breeder and not one out to scam. This one the breeder posted their phone number and it wasn't going back and forth through email. She called me and was able to pick the puppy up within 2 days since it was old enough to go.
We just purchased our darling miniature boarder collie from Shirley Richardd in Sikeston MO. Her son drove to St Louis airport for nominal fee to bring her to me. I am from Arizona and made a 23-hour round trip just to pick her up. They were honest, dependable, reasonable prices. He only charged me $24 for her first two shots. We love our new addition to our family. We would recommend Shirley Richards puppies in the future.

If your looking to sell a puppy this i a great place to do it for the buyer and seller I've used them several times and have sold them all both times. They are really priced right compared to other places and save for the buyer and seller and when you load everything it's easy to place your ad they take you step by step i will use them again and when i get another puppy i will use them I'm just really happy with the results. Thanks Bud

I bought a supposedly purebred puppy who is not up to breed standard after it grew up, and I have spent $4,500 on various worms the puppy came with constantly deworming the infested dog. I contacted the breeder about the worms but they ignored my message and review.

I have recently bought a Yorkie from a breeder name Allen C. If you come across any of his ads I highly recommend him! He made the process of getting my lovely dog so easy! I would definitely buy another dog from him!
I also was hacked, I am a certified canine behavior consultant and very reputable breeder, they also hacked my dogsnow account. They hacked the dogs now one twice... No way they got in through my email it must have been by other means, guess password maybe... I only found out by a customer inquiring to me about yorkies. Lol I breed Doodles and Goldens.

As the header states. I bought from a breeder on the site who sold me a dog that nearly died within the first week from coccidia and hookworms and needed several blood transfusions and an extended stay in the hospital. The breeder denied any responsibility when I spoke to them, so I left a review on puppyfind to let others know about my experience. It was disputed and taken down by the breeder and puppyfind requested documentation of my claims. Fair enough, I sent what they asked for. Then they asked for more, so I sent that as well. This was back in early December of 2020. It is now may 2021 and they are still looking for new angles to take my review down, even stating it is my final chance to leave a review for the breeder. If you find a breeder on puppyfind, make sure you have multiple sources to check for the truth about them.
Tip for consumers:
Look elsewhere, but if you choose to use this site. Check out the breeder on other sites, as this site will remove negative reviews.

Find the perfect puppy from a honest breeder: Check the time of membership (new sellers are not a sure thing); find how many puppies the seller has available; only one breed or a verity and of all ages. Most great breeders specialize in one breed only and and take pride in their dogs. Stay away from the great verity sellers.
This way I found my perfect puppy.
This site is now puppies.com and it is horrible! The customer service is dismal, but beyond this, there are only scammers looking to scam buyers and sellers alike. I used puppyfind, inthe past, and sold multiple litters. My ads were never posted initially. I had to update my profile and even after, the pups were buried in 70k+ worth of ads.
Tip for consumers:
Do not use puppy.com unless you are looking to be scammed.

We are blessed to have found Vicky and David White on puppyfind.com and look forward to sending updates on our Kamala.
