We recently welcomed Bozzly to our family and are so in love! He is such a great pup! So good with kids and our other pups - Tricia told us his personality seemed like he would warm right up and she was so right! This morning our second pup from Denning Farms and both times the entire process has been a breeze. If you’re wanting a new pup - we highly recommend Tricia and Denning Farms!

We got Lexie, a Teddy Bear, from Denning Farms in 2016 to keep our senior Maltese, Izzy, company during the day while we worked. They became besties! We were so happy with our Lexie that when we lost Izzy in 2021, we immediately thought of Trish at Denning Farms to help us and Lexie fill the hole in our hearts. We went online and fell in love with Teddy Bear Female#4! She's the one with the heart-melting expression and the brown patches in her coat. We emailed Trish, then watched and waited until the magical 8-week date came and then we picked her up at Jax Int'l Airport in October 2021. The little furball in that crate stole what was left of our hearts!
We named her Zoey and she keeps Lexie running! Now Lexie is the big sister and her little sister Zoey is her bestie! We recommend Denning Farms to everyone we know who is looking for a great doggie from a very professional breeder. You can tell these puppies are raised with love from birth and for the time they are at the farm--to me, that is very important! Thank you Denning Farms for our little loveys!

Tricia, we are so so happy with our Bella Rose. She has brought us such love and companionship. She is healthy and loves to play with her toys and ball. Thank you for doing such a great job breeding our little girl. We can honestly recommend Denning farms when getting a puppy.

We purchased Sadi Lou, two years ago and couldn't be happier. She is such a joy and has the most interesting character. She is a cuddler but also a thief. Everything in the house is hers and makes it a game everyday. We have a pitbull and dachshund and Sadi is the alpha of the house even with us. I would highly recommend Denning Farms.

Finn is almost a year old he will be Dec 5! He has flown with me to visit my daughter in Texas! He has been on a road trip to Kentucky! He loves going in his stroller into a few shopping spots! I took him out Halloween trick a treating with my granddaughter! He is good with kids and other dogs! Very smart dog! Fireworks don’t seem to upset him! He doesn’t mind rain or thunderstorms! I took him out young with a raincoat on to get him use to it! I think he was potty trained by 7 months! Eventually I want to take him on my kayak! Living in a condo on the third floor he has learned to go up and downstairs and has a best friend three doors down! Finn is a very sweet dog with a lot of energy! Loves cuddling and gives great kisses

My husband and I have purchased 2 Teddy bears over the last 8 years from Denning Farms.
Our babies are absolutely precious to us. They are affectionate, smart, friendly, and well-behaved.
Thank you for breeding such wonderful puppies. It might be time for us to come get a 3rd pup. 😉

Traci, I purchased Flash on 11/21/23. I was desperate for a puppy to replace the 2 I lost in 2 months time. Flash's name was changed to Dalton. He is so sweet and loving. He is definitely my puppy. He is shy about getting close to other people in the family. He is gradually warming up to my husband. Given time he will be a wonderful addition to our household. Dalton has stolen my heart.
He has seen the Veterinarian and received a clean bill of health. I have already set a date to have him neutered in February.
Thank you.
