I had my puppy since Monday, everything is going good so far with him he's a beauty and I'm so proud to have him. The prices are very expensive but I would do it all again.

I wandered into this little shop thinking it was a cute little store that sold dog gifts and other items. I was immediately greeted by the sound of barking and found myself face to face with several adorable puppies. I didn't know this was a place that actually sold dogs. While I wasn't in the market for a puppy, I wanted to rescue every single one out of this place. They were kept in cages with wire bottoms, with only a small, thin mat to rest on.
This is no way for a sweet animal to be treated. I had no desire to shop at the rest of the store and give them a cent of my money after seeing this treatment. I strongly encourage you to rescue a dog from a shelter or a reputable rescue organization. Do not give money to these people!

Way overpriced! Was serious about looking for 2nd pup and dogs were all 6 months old, not AKC registered or fixed. They said up to date on shots which is required for them to do and they wanted 2000 to 3000 per pup which claims pup prices have gone up, which by looking around prior to going there is not true. If I want to pay that much I will go to private breeder, seems to be glorified puppy mill that only cares about prophet, the dogs could have been sold if the prices were reasonable

Rescue dogs, don't buy them from a puppy shop. If you don't know anything about puppy mills, do a little research and save a dog's life! We bought a dog from Little Paws 13 years ago and he must have come from a puppy mill because he isn't the breed they told us he was. Not only that but he has behavioral issues attributed to the breed mix we believe that he is, which of course we didn't know when we bought him. You are better off rescuing a dog from a local shelter

We had a wonderful experience adopting our new puppy last week. The owner is very helpful and knowledgeable. We're thrilled with our new addition! Also supplies in the shop were extremely reasonably priced.
