My Chloe was born on May 7th 2021. She is a cavachon and the best decision I made in my life. Tricia and her family did a marvelous job of socializing their puppies. My other dog had passed away and I was overcome with grief. So I made the decision to get a new puppy to make the missing of my other dog a little easier. I loved my Bella but I have to say that this dog is the smartest dog that I've ever owned in my entire life. She's just barely over a year old now and still all puppy. I recommend Tricia with my whole heart for the way that she cares for these puppies. We love Chloe so much that we're actually now trying to think about going and getting another one. Chloe needs a friend that can run around and chase her. We have another older dog but she just can't keep up with Chloe LOL. So I hope to see them again real soon to add another family member to our household.

Dear Tricia,
We are so pleased with our Teddy Bear Josie Lynn!!! She’s now almost 16 months old on September 1st. She was born May 01, 2021, we purchased her on July 21st 2021 and we are completely in love with this little girl!! She’s a bit stubborn but that comes with the breed. I must say the shipping was completely professional and easy and you let me choose the airport of my choice at the same price you quoted me!!
I knew you were a legit clean business when I spoke to you on the phone prior to purchase. I will be buying from you again in the future but currently have been diagnosed with stage IV metastatic breast cancer at the young age of 59!! So I’m now on a fixed income unfortunately.
I would recommend you to other customers x 1000%!!!!
Thank you for this puppy, she brings me more joy and happiness that I ever thought possible especially being my very 1st pet!! I’m over joyed with love!!!
With love,

Hi
My owner named me Buddy. I was born on December 24, 2019 and arrived on March 5, 2020 to Brenda Tisbert. I wanted to let you know that I am very happy here. I get to play with her two granddaughters every day who live next door. We take walks everyday and I also have a big backyard to run around in. Everyone thinks I’m cute and adorable. I’m happy, healthy, and growing bigger by the day!
Merry Christmas and thank you!
P.S: I forgot to tell you that I am very spoiled!

Hi there,

We are still absolutely loving our puppy Freo that we purchased from you back in April! He is healthy, and full of energy!!! We couldn’t be more pleased. He truly be any cuter either!

I did have a question for you. When we first got him, you sent us home with some food samples you use, but I had never heard of the brand back then, and couldn’t find it. Was the brand “Zignature” by any chance?

Freo seems to be licking his paws a lot, and throws up about once a week, so I think it’s time we look into a different diet. He’s been on Purina Pro Plan. Just curious what you use since you feed a lot of little mouths!

Thanks Tricia!

I got Luna in January 2019 and she has been the best friend a girl could ask for. She is such a sweet cuddle bug but she loves romping in the outdoors too. The whole process of getting her was super easy and the folks at Denning Farms were wonderful to work with. Luna has been a happy and healthy little dog and I have recommended Denning Farms to several friends already.
