I purchased a french bulldog pup from Tathiana P. He was everything she said he was. The whole transaction and flight nanny delievery went smoothly. I would recommend this breeder.
It was easy to sign up. I was able to search for a specific breed and locations. Puppies.com made it easy to connect with the breeder and bring home our sweet, adorable and healthy baby Shih Tzu!
Great tool to quickly find homes for puppies! I was able to find homes locally for our litter within a few days.
We have been searching for a Pekingese for some time now and we came across "Puppyfind Website, it was there we found our dream Pekingese. This Pekingese filled all the requirements that my wife was looking for so I called DEBCO for more information on this beautiful puppy. I found that they were very dedicated to quality in every puppy. They were both fair and honest in working with us and they went the extra mile (897 miles) by personally delivering the puppy to us! I would strongly recommend getting your next puppy from DEBCO, you will be very happy with DEBCO and your new quality puppy.
THANK YOU for all your help and a very wonderful puppy! Mark G.
It's nice to see how many people have looked at your ads. It's a great form of communication.
The seller I dealt with was very professional and everything went smoothly. She was very flexible and I was able to bring my puppy home quickly with no problems.
After purchasing a puppy & having huge fear issues with the puppy from Doodles and Poodles.com through Puppyfind.com (which continue to today after spending over $2,000 on trainers) & the breeder basically saying to bad. I tried to leave a true & valid review of the breeder so that future buyers would be aware and not make a sight unseen purchase as I did. Now the puppy is over a year old and it's obvious now that the breeder also lied about the future size of the dog. I sent verification of the purchase they refused to publish my review without written reports from a dog behaviorist and my vet. I had explained to the breeder that I had an Autistic son and therefore would have expected them not to sell me a basket case for a companion for him, the dog is afraid of him because he makes odd gestures and sudden movements. I had dogs for him his entire life and never expienced anything like this. I think buyers need to be aware that this site isn't really about the buyer it only cares about having sellers list.
The website is very organized and easy to use. It allows many pics of the pups and detailed information of the pup, it's parents and the breeder.
They were great people to work with. Puppies were happy and healthy. They priced their Puppies very fairly.
Your website work well once registered it made everything much easier for the breeders and I. And your site made it easy to find what I was looking for
Thank you for your positive feedback regarding the website. It's great to hear that you found the registration process easy and that the platform facilitated smooth communication and transactions between you and the breeders.
Thank you for using Puppies.com!
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.

My Chihuahua puppy was just as described in the ad. The lady and her husband wanted to meet me before I could purchase the puppy.
I love this homepage for selling puppies. Easy to use. Upload pictures, add a price and describe your puppy's personality.
I have been scammed twice on this site. Two different sellers. Two different dogs.
Two different years. Took a loss of $1000 total. Tracked the first breeder to Nigeria. He Had no dogs. Just pics he took off of other breeders sites. 2ND TIME: SAME THING. Tracked him to India.
Puppyfind was not helpful at all. I reported it to several different agencies.
I learned that if you buy from puppyfind it is at YOUR OWN RISK! THEY CLAIM NO RESPONSIBITY FOR THEIR SELLERS!
