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.
0/5 stars- I withdrew 1800$ cash, sent withdrawal slips and pictures etc to her, she refused to accept venmo, checks, credit cards ONLY CASH and we lived over two hours away. We set up a time to meet, spoke at 7:30 the morning we were supposed to meet as we agreed on the address as I was driving a 5.5 hour round trip drive. She sent pictures and videos via text all four days prior to us reaching out about the dog - and once we arrived she stopped answering all calls and texts. She also made her profile private the same day on puppy find and you had to pay to leave a review. She claims she has been doing this for 24 hours but stood us up- with a 1.5 year old baby in the car. Her number is also now blocked requiring a subscription to see and that number is *******332

Puppy find in search for a miniature DACHSCHUND- LHARRIS (user) claims to have been doing this for 24 years. She is a scammer.
I enjoyed using puppies.com. The only thing is when you went to your favorites and then went back to the available puppies I had to time put in the all the info for the refine search. (Unless it was user error)😉 it was a pain in the butt!
A lot of searching for a site that didn’t take you through the hoops so to speak, pretty straight forward.
Creating an account and contacting the breeder was a breeze using this website. Very user-friendly.
The breeder that was advertising was using puppies.com
The sellers were nice and you could tell their pups were well loved. When we met they gave me the health info in a nice book.
We love our new baby! She's thriving in our family and fits in perfectly with our other 2 dogs.
We couldn't be happier.
I was just browsing for puppies when I found puppies.com. Once I saw our Kaya I knew she was my dog.
It was easy to find and follow puppies we were interested in. The breeders we found were reliable, easy to communicate with and get the puppy we were after. Very happy with the experience at puppies.com
Looked at many other puppy finder websites and we consistently found puppies we were interested in on Puppies.com. Lots of photos, breeder reviews to read, easy to navigate website.
We're delighted to hear that you had such a positive experience using Puppies.com to find your new puppy. It's great that you found the website easy to navigate and that you were able to connect with reliable breeders who made the process smooth and enjoyable for you.
Thank you for using Puppies.com!
This company PuppyFind.com Now Puppies.com is a scam, they allow anyone to sell their puppies on their site, without being certified. The company will only suspend accounts that file reports of scam breeders, they turn a blind eye to the scam. Check the BBB website for reviews on Puppies.com. I would not use their service at all, I went here to purchase my fur friend from a breeder on puppies.com I had set up a day and time to pick up my puppy when the seller did not respond. I went to their page to find out they had changed the price of the puppy for more than it was when I set up a time to pick up the puppy. Puppies.com turn a blind eye to this stating they do not get involved with any process of a sale of a dog. I went to leave negative feedback on a seller who I was going to buy my puppy friend to find out that my feedback was removed from their profile. But puppies.com don't get involved unless you are the buyer. SCAM SITE! Go to another site to get your puppy
Tip for consumers:
I don't recommend using their site at all!

I was looking for a Bouvier des Flanders puppy. Many show up an I was impressed by the one in Guthrie Oklahoma and we got one. I could not be any more happy. The breeder was very helpful. She arrange to have the ears cropped there and also the transport to Colorado where the puppy was delivered to our house. The price was very reasonable.
Just plain lucky to find the site.
I didn't really know where to start when we were ready to get a new puppy. I just googled "cockapoo puppy near me" and Puppies.com popped up as an option. I thought I would just look to see what they offered but it was so great and easy to use. I could filter in things like location, breed of puppy, etc. I was able to communicate with the breeder directly through Puppies.com which made me feel safer (knowing the breeder had been vetted and that we wouldn't get scammed).
I chose puppies.com because I felt like it was a safe option and it was easy to look and see what puppies were available near me.
It's wonderful to hear that Puppies.com provided a great and easy experience for you in your search for a new Cockapoo puppy. The ability to filter by location and breed, as well as the direct communication with the breeder through the platform, seems to have contributed to a sense of safety and convenience for you.
Thank you for choosing Puppies.com!
Puppies.com is a great tool to use in finding your forever puppy.
It's a trusted source for finding a great puppy.
We had a great experience. It was easy and we found the best pup!

October 28th 2023 I purchased a 10 week old black Labrador puppy from a woman named Ronit "Row" Krug at least that's what she claimed her name was, probably a fake alias in Davie Florida. Gave her $2,000 in cash.she claimed the puppies ate her printer cable so she had no access to give me the puppies veterinarian shot certificate and breeding papers before I took the dog home. I contacted by phone and text multiple times and the same runaround 'the papers are on the way'. 'the papers are on the way'.finally after a month I figured I was probably scammed. The dog is a purebred black lab but have zero papers on her. Plus she was breeding them out of a second floor one bedroom apartment that was made into a makeshift kennel probably a puppy mill.
Looking for black lab puppy for myself and found it on puppies.com but kind of regret it
Hello,
I'm sorry to hear about your experience, and that you didn't receive the paperwork for your dog.
If you believe you've been a victim of fraud or encountered an illegal breeding operation, you may want to report the incident to local authorities, such as the local police or animal control.
You can also leave a testimonial for the seller on their Puppies.com account, which will hopefully bring a resolution from the seller.
We wish you and your puppy many happy years together.
I purchased a miniature pinscher from Christy and I'm in love. Christy was so professional.All the paperwork was in order. Christy sent me home with a nice goodie bag full of treats for my puppy. I would definitely recommend buying your puppy from her. 100% legitimate

I was sold 2 puppies that were advertised as from purebred parents, and one parent was 50% undesirable breed. Besides that, their paws had caked on $#*!, and the dogs were physically abused. All of this has been documnted with Indiana county humane society, and PA AG's office. Left a review on puppyfind for the miscreant seller (in commodore PA), and was told unless I had a copy of the ad, they would remove it. What kind of website does not kee p copies of their ad's. Especially when they have been long documented using that loophole to remove negative feedback.

Hello, It's unfortunate that you did not have a good experience with the seller you purchased from. PuppyFind.com is a bulletin board service and is only meant to be a means of contact and so we do not archive deleted listings. All disputed reviews do require supporting documentation for the statements made in them. Hopefully you will be able to resolve the issue directly with the seller. If you have additional questions about the site please contact us at support@puppyfind.com.

They have a very serious issue. When it comes to a dispute between a scammer and innocent consumer who got tricked in, puppyfind.com protect scammers by allowing them to remove any bad reviews. It's a vicious cycle- the scammers are able to keep up with ripping off naive customers! What a great fraud friendly company!
Tip for consumers:
Don’t ever use it unless you want to be a victim of fraud!
Hello,
If a seller is a true scammer the account is removed from the site.
If you posted a review for a seller and the seller disputed the review, then we do require the buyer to provide proof of purchase and supporting documentation for the statements in their review in order for it to be reinstated. If the buyer is unable to provide supporting documentation for their statements then the review is not posted.

When told of a golden retriever breeder who is selling puppies with severe genetic defect to me and at least one other family, they have taken no action. The breeder is selling another litter from same parents.
Use another service!

Puppy find is a great site. Do your homework when looking for a puppy, no matter what website you choose to shop. For me, shopping by picture is risky. Can you see the available puppies? Selecting a puppy by its personality is far better than choosing one from an image.
This couple was the best people to work with when purchasing a dog from. Contact was easy, they sent pictures videos and messages about the dogs at least once a week. Pick up process was great they met us and had all the information and went over the information with you. I would recommend these people 100%.
I use to love puppyfind.
It was wonderful but now so many have changed and in my opinion it's more about rescues instead of breeders but the breeders are paying.
You can't delete false reviews from buyers like you use to be able to. Not that it has come up.
With puppyfind you could look for breed via breed and state and now most breeders are being washed out. Extremely disappointed that puppyfind made this change.
I guess I'll be on the search for a new site!
Hello,
We did change our entire site setup and big changes like that are hard to get used to. We are diligently working on getting all the bugs worked out so everything functions properly. We have added the state search option so that should help. We appreciate your patience with us.
If you have additional questions on how to navigate the site please contact us at support@puppies.com and we will be happy to help out.

Vicky was fantastic during the entire adoption process. From the initial contact and conversation, up until the day we picked up our gorgeous puppy, Vicky kept my wife & I well informed and sent us plenty of pictures of the growing pups. She was very professional and thorough, and made sure we had all of our paperwork. Highly recommend!
I have french bulldogs and used to sell a fair number of puppies on puppyfind. The first litter I listed after the changeover I sold zero puppies there and my only contact was from someone who I'm fairly sure was either an activist posing as a potential buyer or a scammer. Thankfully I was careful, so I was only out a vet visit to get a health certificate that I ultimately did not need. Last week I listed 2 puppies from my latest litter and when I got my weekly report my puppies got a whopping 7 whole views. Wow. I am cancelling. I get better exposure for free from other sites and am at least prepared for the scams on free sites.
Tip for consumers:
find a different site
Hello,
We know it's difficult to get used to a whole new site, but the new site does have many additional options that the old site did not.
We know it can be frustrating when you aren't getting enough interest in your listings. Please make sure you have completed your Verifications page so you will show up in the ID verified search. We are going to implement a boost option soon that will assist in getting your listings more exposure.
Thank you for being patient with us while we fine tune the site.

Everything was great great communication with the beader they went well over then just selling our addition too our family.
If you are looking for a amazing German Shepherd dogs Vicky and David are the best! We received almost daily checkups and photos. We got a puppy for Christmas for my son They made it a very magical experience for him. If I could give more than a five star rating I would.
This company condones cyber bullying. I recently purchased a puppy from a breeder. However, the puppy ended up being extremely underweight with worms. When I wrote a review about the state of the puppy, the breeder got aggravated stating I am crazy and I have mental health problems. When I reported the review, puppies.com stated it outlined their guideline to allow a breeder call others mentally crazy because they got caught in their scam.
Tip for consumers:
Do not use this site. Run! If you get a sick dog, you are not protected from helping others by warning them in reviews. Puppies.com is an advocate for people selling sick dogs and scammers. Find a reputable breeder elsewhere.
