We got Lindie Jo from Denning Farms in January 2021. Tricia was wonderful to work with and Lindie Jo couldn’t be any smarter and has the best personality! She has brought so much joy to our lives! We recommend Denning Farms every chance we get!

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.

After doing extensive searching I found Denny Farms in Iowa. I drove to a beautiful family farm out in the country. Tricia is a mom, wife and runs a business of breeding adorable puppies humanely. The website photos are accurate and if you are lucky enough to drive there you will enter a warm family home and have the pleasure of meeting her in person. Our Teddy Bear "BUDDY" has slept thru the night since he got home 5 nights ago. BUDDY adapted quickly to our home with a Female German Shepherd & Male Terrier Mix. We took him to play with children and he loved it. He will be my dads dog as his Maltese died this spring. BUDDY will spend a lot of time with us too so it is important he adjusts to people, dogs and children. BUDDY is the sweetest little guy and I would recommend Denning Farms to anyone looking for a healthy puppy with a good temperament. We are so happy to add him to our furry family!

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. 😉

Hi Tricia and Family, it has been a long time since we picked up our sweet Curly (Puggle) from your home 9-22-2012. Today July 28 2022, we are celebrating his 10th birthday. we have had no issues with our fine Puggle. Since the day we brought him home he has been a joy to have in our family. He has grown with Steven through the years walking with him to the bus stop, going on walks, playing in the snow or just being lazy etc...Steven was 7 and is now going to be a senior in high school what a long road traveled. I am thankful that I found you and was able to bring our sweet dog home so many years ago... God Bless Ellyn PS wish I could more pictures... 🙂

We adopted our cavachon, Louie, in June 2019. He is the sweetest, smartest, and best lil dog ever. He potty trained within days and blended into our family of six flawlessly. He is great with our four kids. Depending on how we get him groomed, he can look like a lil fluff ball, short and lean, or halfway in between. His favorite place to be is laying next to someone snuggling. We ❤️ our Louie.
