Thinking about #3 since my health has improved caring for these too. They definitely will get you off the couch. We are so thankful for Trica and the Spirit of Love .

If you’re looking give them a try! Thank you Tricia

I know that Comrade was part of a litter of 8, so if anyone else also added a cavapoo to their families in March 2021, please reach out to Comrade on Instagram @comrade_thecavapoo as we'd love to travel to reunite Comrade with his siblings.



What Our Customer's Say -
I got Darla from Denning Farms on April 3rd, 2022. (She was born in December) Best decision I’ve ever made! I obviously couldn’t pass up her precious picture online. She’s the perfect balance of sweet and spunky. She’s filled my life with so much joy over the last two months. I’ll definitely be back in the future!
I have a male and female Teddy Bear.Ias hesitate because I always had large dogs .It took 12 years to get past the loss of my doberman.With the encouragement of my children these pups have helped me so much improving my health.Ive never been so blessed.The Denning family are great.Im even considering another.
Of course it will be another Denning pup.

This testimony is long overdue. We received our teddybear shichon puppy in January 2021. As a first time dog buyer this was a great experience working with Tricia. She answered all my questions upfront when initially researching as well as assisted in determining the best puppy to put our deposit on. She also surprised us with being in our area to drop off the puppy versus our drive to get him. Leo is a fabulous puppy and has a very similar demeanor to what Tricia relayed when he was only 8 weeks. He is an absolute joy to our family! Thank you so much Tricia to you (and your husband for the drop-off) throughout this process. I highly recommend Denning Farms for anyone interested in one of these breeds.

I was totally against getting a small inside dog, and then my daughter begged for one!
In a moment of weakness I purchased this little cutie. I have completely fallen in love. This is by far the sweetest dog I have ever owned! She was a breeze to potty train, minds very well, and is a major cutler. I don’t think I will now own anything else but teddybears! We all love her! Look no further! If you have a family and want a great family dog this is the bread!

Hi Tricia,
Just wanted to send a photo of Milo after his first groom. He is a 4 month old bundle of joy, energy and happiness. He was easy to potty train and continues to be a daily delight to us. He is such a cuddler and affectionate companion.
Thank you for sending us such a happy, healthy puppy.

We just love our boy Percy! He is full of love & energy, and is so good natured. After our wonderful 15+ years with our first cockapoo we had adopted from Tricia, we knew another one was in our future. We’ll always recommend Denning Farms!

I am absolutely grateful for finding Tricia and Denning Farms, a year ago while battling anxiety and depression, my dog has been the best emotional support animal and brought so much joy to my life!!!!! Great customer service, updates were always on time w/ pictures and fast shipping too. Time has really flew by now Senna Chanel is 1 years old day!!! Thank you again.

Hello Tricia!
We just wanted to send you and updated picture of one of the puppies you sold over the summer. This is Brutus, he is now about 9 months old. He’s happy and healthy! He’s also very curious and full of energy. Loves to play first, eat second and sleep third!
Thanks,
Jennifer R.

I want to thank Tricia for providing such a wonderful experience for a first-time dog owner. It was very easy to communicate with her throughout the whole process. And of course, we could not be happier with our Pup, Dexter. Our journey began when he was born on May 15, 2020, and we could barely contain our excitement to meet him for pickup on July 17th(and Tricia). Sure, being from Michigan, I was a little apprehensive giving a deposit to a breeder two states away. It was again Tricia being so professional and forthcoming with updates on her website that just assured me that we made the right decision. Thank you again.

This testimonial is long overdue. I purchased our adorable and amazing puppy from Denning Farms in June 2020. At the time, our boys were 18 and 20. We were sending my youngest off to college that fall and rather then enjoy a quieter home we thought what a great time to get our first ever puppy. I decided on a yorkiepoo after researching multiple breeds. I was a little skeptical about purchasing online but all of Tricia’s reviews were good. I searched for a couple months trying to find a breeder with no bad reviews and puppies available. I reached out to Tricia and she told me to check the website in a couple of days, she was about to post pictures of her newest litter. She said if you are still interested let me know. Once we saw those tiny little puppies we decided to go for it. The whole process was very easy. Tricia updated photos every couple of weeks until Lucy was ready to come home. When it was time for Lucy to join our family she took the flight from Iowa to NY. She even had a layover in Charlotte. Boy was I worried. It all worked out just fine. End result..we have the best puppy anyone could ever ask for. She is the cutest ever. Her personality is amazing. Lucy is friendly, very playful and the sweetest most lovable dog you have ever met. Most importantly she is as healthy as can be. Lucy does not shed and is about 12.5 pounds right now at 19 months old. One funny thing though, we have done 2 DNA tests on Lucy. The first was given to us to do just for fun. To everyone’s surprise Lucy is a perfect 50/50 mix, yorkie/bichon. All along we thought she had poodle in her. We are not at all upset about this. Like I said, we could not have been blessed with a better dog. Whatever the mix we wouldn’t change our decision or puppy for the world. Do not hesitate to purchase a puppy from Tricia she is clearly doing something right. Thank you so much for our perfect little Lucy!
