Great User Experience

The platform simply worked, great filters available and the experience searching for a puppy was great. Being able to communicate with the seller in the platform was great too. I also appreciate not receiving thousands of notifications every week like with many other platforms. Puppies.com really sent only what was essential and at the right times too. I appreciate all the work done by the team!

Excellent new and improved website

They actually listened to my concerns I was having with their website several months back and implemented the change needed to better improve their platform. I could barely see any of the dogs due to so many pop up ads so I wrote them. I just had a follow up email from them saying they have a completely different platform and they listened to what I suggested and their website is incredible now. Very user friendly.

We purchased our Miniature Dachshund from Tanika Herndon from Fredericksburg, Virginia. She was excellent. Response time was prompt, friendly, courteous and professional. My puppy was everything she said she was. Great experience. We also received a puppy pak filled with many things needed for our new baby. It was so sweet and thoughtful and very much appreciated. Would definitely recommend doing business with Tanika.
