First off this was the best breeder I had contacted about Teddy Bear pups. There are a lot of scammers-Tricia is definitely not. So thorough and down to earth from our initial inquiry until my husband picked the pup up from her house. Our Teddy Bear pup named Bear is the absolute best! He is a joyful little guy who LOVES being around our 3 and 5 year old. Happy, not at all aggressive, loves to play and loves nap time and bedtime. We were beyond thrilled with our experience and would hands down recommend both Denning and Teddy Bears to anyone. Our special little guy doesn’t shed, gives lots of kisses (especially when we wake up, he just licks our faces straight for 5 minutes) and was potty trained by month 3. We couldn’t have picked a better family dog!

Tricia:
Our beautiful cockapoo that we got as a puppy through Denning Farms turned 16 today! She has been such a loving, healthy, energetic family dog to us and we love her to pieces. Lola is still full of life and taking her walks with us and lot of snuggles. We had a big birthday party for her with all her friends. A little hard of hearing and lost some teeth, but other than that, doing amazing.

Many thanks for the best dog ever!

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!

I absolutely LOVE my teddy bear!! He is so smart, lovable and a blessing to our family. Trisha you do a great job, in raising these furry babies. I can’t believe mine will be 10 yrs old, in 5 months.

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... 🙂

I purchased a Teddybear puppy (Male # 5a) last year and he has been such a wonderful addition to our family. He is the second dog I have owned after my first Teddybear dog passed away. I highly recommend Denning Farms. I am so in love with my fur baby and he turned 1 on 03/07/2023!

Chief will be 4 in July and we do not know how our family ever survived without him. His energy, loyalty and overall kindness is overwhelming. His desire to not know a stranger can be tiresome at times, but he is a very important part of our family.
