We just picked-up our adorable poodle puppy from Silver Ace Poodles yesterday, and we couldn't be…read morehappier. We contacted Karen when our puppy was only 1 day old, and placed a deposit on him. Then the hard part -- waiting the standard 8 weeks. Well Karen made that process much more manageable, as she sent us a short video of our puppy each week so that we could see how he was developing. It was clear that he was being cared-for beautifully. The transaction was simple and quick, with the first set of vaccinations completed with all paperwork properly provided .. Karen clearly is a pro poodle breeder. Our new little guy has a sweet disposition, is intelligent, playful, and is already getting used to the potty training outside, even just 1 day later. Many thanks to Karen for our new little family member!

I have my own story to tell. No dog ready vet visit was ever provided. If I wanted our beautiful…read moreBo, I had to sign as is for $1000. I paid $400 to have them bring him to Santa Maria (which was worth it for me). I paid how I was asked. Even paying a fee that Pay Pal asked for since I wanted to do it as a business transaction and not the friends/family way. I also was told I would NOT be given any paperwork till I had him fixed. We had our beautiful boy about a month....and he died after bleeding out after being neutered. The Vet said that has never happened in all his 30 years (and neither did the ER Vet). The Vet did blood work after his death and it showed he had very low numbers for his blood corragulating. I contacted her site and emailed and asked for my papers. as well as explaining the CA Lemon Law re dogs and dying within a year. I asked for a refund. I have had no contact back. I have dealt with a local poodle breeder about 4 years ago and this is not the way they handled business. In fact since then I have contacted another poodle breeder up north and that's not the way they have handled business either. Even though we only had our beautiful Bo for a short time...he has left a big hole in our hearts. I gave her plenty of time to respond before this writing.

After losing our 17 year old earlier this year we were looking to bring a puppy into our lives and…read morewe are so happy to have found Gen. She was thorough, kind, ethical, and dedicated throughout every step of meeting our new little girl to bringing her home-and continues to check in to make sure she is settling in well. She provides expert advice, and we cant begin to explain how grateful we are for this sweet puppy we added to our lives. It's only been a few weeks but we can't picture our lives without her, and Gen did absolutely everything possible to make sure we felt prepared to bring her home. We can't recommend Sierra Vista enough for making our family whole. Thank you so much!

The past few months, I've felt like the luckiest dog mommy in the world. Emmy started off as shy…read moreand reserved. She has blossomed into an absolute social butterfly--spreading love and joy everywhere we go. Amber, Sarah, Rosemary and the entire Elite team were supportive and responsive throughout the process. Jayla uploaded adorable weekly training and socialization videos, which we still watch together. My pup arrived fully crate trained and mostly potty trained (I don't expect 100% success at this age). They did warn me that Emmy is a "Velcro dog". Boy, they weren't kidding! Emmy needs constant love and attention but this has been one of her most endearing qualities. I've enrolled her in a puppy prep school where she's thrived--making dozens of new friends and charming all the trainers! Lastly--and this may seem superficial but her striking Tiffany blue-green eyes have persisted at 5+ months. Green eyes are extremely rare--especially among labradoodles. So, this shouldn't be a driver in selecting a dog or breeder but like I said--I might just be the luckiest puppy parent on the planet right now. :)

Love Manni, Maisy, and the rest of the family! I had to leave my doggy (Ollie) for the weekend and…read morehad no idea where to leave him with. He's very spoiled and gets separation anxiety (and me too...) so I wanted the best for him. I was considering Pets Hotel until i found out that they crate their dogs most of the day and barely play outside. Ollie doesn't like crates and loves to be around humans and other dogs. So, I did my research and came across Maisy's Mutts! We did a meet and greet 3 weeks before I had to leave for the weekend and it went great. I felt SO comfortable leaving Ollie with the family and Manni kept me updated every day with pictures which definitely helped with my separation anxiety (LOL!). Ollie loves them and he had so much fun with Maisy and their other furry friend. Manni is definitely my go-to boarding place!!!

We decided to contact Joyce and…read moreshe was such a pleasure to deal with, we had a million questions and she took the time to answer them all and guide us in the right direction. We felt very confident with her and decided to put a deposit right away. Several months later and our puppy was here. We had expressed to Joyce exactly what we were looking for and she was able to make it happen. She made my wife so happy she couldn't stop crying when we got there to meet our puppy. Joyce also offered us an extra service of training our puppy before we took it home. We highly recommend it. When we got our puppy 3 weeks later he was fully potty trained, crate trained, knows how to sit lay down and stay. This made our life so much easier. Now our puppy is all settled in at our home and he's an angel. We are so happy we picked Joyce to help us on this journey. If you are considering getting a doggy we definitely recommend her. We have already told so many people about them. Everywhere we go people love our dog and want to know where they can get one.

I want to be clear that this review is not about the puppies or the health of the dogs. This is…read moreonly about the buyer experience and the selection process, because I think future families should know exactly what the deposit commits them to. When you place the deposit, you are locking yourself into a very rigid communication and payment structure that is not obvious until after you are already on the list. After being on the list for about one to two weeks, I realized this process was not a good fit for what I was looking for. Updates are limited to public Instagram posts at weeks two, four, six, and seven and a half, with no individual photos or meaningful information shared directly with families. I expected personal updates or temperament notes to help make an informed decision, but when I politely asked for more information, I was told this is simply not something they do. Another thing future buyers should be aware of is that full payment is required at week six, even though you do not actually select your puppy until take-home day. That means you may be committing the full purchase price based only on a few public posts, without the individualized information most people would reasonably expect when choosing a companion for the next fifteen years. Because this wasn't a fit for me, I removed myself from the list very early so I would not disrupt placements or prevent another family from getting a puppy. I explained this respectfully, clearly, and in good faith. At that point I hoped for a refund or at least a partial refund, especially since my early withdrawal had zero impact on her program. Instead, the response became very cold and I was told no refund would be given under any circumstance. It left me with the impression that the non refundable deposit is treated more as bonus revenue than a good faith placeholder. So if you decide to place a deposit, be fully aware of the update schedule, payment timing, and lack of individual communication ahead of time. Again, the dogs themselves may be wonderful. This review is only meant to help other buyers understand the process clearly before committing.
