    Here's my fur ball with her "improper" coat. I think it's very proper lol
    Bilun P.

    I got my puppy from this place in 2016. She was exactly 2 months old at the time. She was the cutest most loving dog ever, and after playing with 6 other dogs my mind was made up. I was waiting for adoption people to call but they ask for so much stuff, I was sick of waiting. I'm not a huge fan of pet stores, but a dog needs a home whether he's at a pet store or a shelter. Also, I felt better spending my money here because they were not asking $2000 more than the usual price, like other pet stores. Anyway. Everyday I look at my little girl and thank my lucky stars that I spent hours there until she came in after her vaccination. If I left just 5 minutes early, I wouldn't have met her. Mike was very helpful and patient with me. I was still there even after closing time and he didn't mind. He took $200 off and gave a bunch of stuff (kibble, wee wee pads etc). He drew a diagram on a paper, telling me how my dog's setup should be like. He gave me the name and phone number of the breeder, and showed me a picture of the dad. After everything was complete, he handed me this huge packet filled with information and tips on what to expect the first few days, expenses etc. The packet also had a free first visit to the vet, discounts on grooming and passports... So much stuff. My pup had her vaccines up to date, but of course they were not all complete at 8 weeks. I had no problem with getting her vaccinated (the last da2pp shot, kennel cough, rabies) at the vet. Now, as for the 3 stars. I know my experience sounds awesome, but my pup is 9 months old now and I see that there were some things that could and should have been done. First of all, my pup was taken away from her litter way too early, and her personality definitely shows it. When I first brought her home, she could only sleep on my chest because she could hear my heart beat (like her mom's). She is always desperate for attention, has separation anxiety, and a lot of phobias (common in pups that were taken away from the litter too early). She doesn't know how to interact with dogs, she's either too forward or too scared. So in short, she shouldn't have been taken away from her litter that early (I'm guessing at 4-5 wks). Second, I was told that she was a purebred longhair dachshund. I honestly couldn't care less if she's purebred bla bla bla, because I'm obsessed with all dogs. I had a DNA test done, and yes she is 100% dachshund but she is CURLY. Don't get me wrong, she has the most adorable look and I haven't seen any other dachshund like her, and she's the most special dog ever. BUT... She apparently is longhair &wirehair mix, which is a big NO for people who care about shows, competitions etc. It's called an improper coat and it's "not desired" and it's a result of bad breeding practices. Like I said, she looks better than any doxie I've ever met, but if I was a person who cared about that kind of stuff, I would be furious and would be suing the pet store. Just saying. Third, and the least important (For me), my pup had giardia when we brought her home. As a new dog mom I freaked out so hard, but by the time she started on her 3rd course of antibiotics, I saw how common giardia was. So I'm not blaming the pet store for the giardia at all because it's literally EVERYWHERE, but be ready to deal with it if you get a dog. I just wanted to keep this review honest, so I'm just giving 3 stars, because like I said, she's had so many psychological problems. I haven't had the chance to send her to daycare, but if you get a puppy, make sure you get her socialized super early so that she knows how to behave and becomes confident. P.S. to the guy who gave his pup back because it wasn't wee-wee pad trained... are you for real?what did you expect? thank god you didn't keep the puppy because it would have ended up on the streets.

    Kobe, Male yorkie

    Before going to puppy paradise we did a lot of searching online for puppies. After running into scammers we decided to go to actual pet shops. Puppy paradise was the first and actual only pet shop we got to go to that day. We did read reviews on this place before going and just like everything there was negative reviews that were concerning. My husband and I are well aware that some negative reviews are left by people who you can not please at all so we decided to go see for ourselves. On January January 22 we went into Puppy Paradise just to look at what puppies they had available and for the price ranges. The workers there were very friendly and knowledgeable about the puppies they had there which made it so much more easier. I was able to hold and play with a few puppies before find my perfect fur baby. We were told to take him to the vet for a check up to be cleared just like other pet shops do as well. Aside from a little stomach bug that he had, our Kobe is perfect! Thank You Puppy Paradise for helping us find our little Kobe. We are very pleased with our purchase and our experience here at puppy paradise. To anyone looking to buy a puppy please don't always go based off the negative reviews. Go see in person for yourself and then make a judgement. If we followed those negative reviews we wouldn't of had found our little fur baby.

    Bruno my mom golden doodle from puppy paradise, poor baby who has seizures sometimes :(

    My mom got her dog bruno from here. He was so cute and playful but he started to have seizures a few months after we got home. We noticed how employees at the store seemed to be mean to the dogs. My mom said that they probably beat him and hit bruno on head because when we just got him he also would put his head down when we try to pet him. Now he stopped because he knows how my family cares and loves him. But don't get puppy from a puppy store I had many bad experiences with them especially ones in New York... I just got my toy poodle from breeder in Maryland and she is healthy, cute and was for good price!

    I've been going to Puppy Paradise for grooming for almost 3 years. No complains so far. I would love to recommend James (the groomer) he is the BEST. He is always willing to listen to what I want for my pet daughter, always nice to her and she loves him. I guess because he treats her good. So if you want a really nice groomer, ask for James. Mr.Mike n Ms.Denise are really nice too. Always attentive n helpful.

    Cereal is saying hi to everybody!
    Milka S N.

    I wish I could love this place. I bought my dog Cereal, a black pomeranian there on 7/22. Employees are very very friend; and the owner's wife , Lisa , is super nice she even gives me and my boyfriend a little gift. I feel like they really treat customer as a close friend. However, I have to take town 2 stars because on the following reasons: 1.) Disorganized I got different quote from different people. Plus they put sold puppies in the same crate with other for sale puppies. On the other hand, you hardly find the actual puppies listed on the website. Ask twice to make sure the puppy you want is still available. 2.) Giardia The pomeranian I got from them (Cereal) had giardia. It's a very common dog parasite and it's highly contagious. My cousin's Aussie got infected by playing with my dog for couple hours. With that saying, there is a very high chance that other dogs are also infected in puppy paradise. 3.) Vaccination are not up to date You might need to pay for the vaccine that was suppose to be taken. I am a first time dog owner and all I want is my little furry friend to stay health and strong. :(

    We got our dog here, an adorable Shiba Inu. 2 years later and he's doing great but they gave him to me and he hadn't got all his shots which I found out after and that's is a big NO NO. Make sure the dog gets all his shots including bortadella etc as my dog got sick almost instantly. He's all good now obviously but just so long as you know this place is a bit of a puppy factory. Stacking them high and cheap and getting them out the door ASAP.

    I adopted a Boston Terrier who was bought at this puppy mill outlet. I have all of her papers and the puppy paradise folder they came with. She is 1000000% the product of bad breeding. She has mouth problems and has already had to have the luxating patella surgery. She's a great dog and we love her so much but please just ADOPT YOUR NEW DOG FROM A SHELTER there are MILLIONS of dogs in need of homes. Unless youre looking to spend your money on a puppy mill puppy and the some subsequent surgeries to go along with him or her.

    Maybe you're more organized than we are but we were caught in an emergency soon after a move to a…read morenew neighborhood, without cat care when we needed to rush out of town. We spent a stressful afternoon searching and eventually took a chance on BKLYN Petsitter. If you're in the same boat, stop looking. Richard is great. Richard (the sole sitter, despite the corporate-sounding name) is easygoing but also professional. It's a comforting combination and one that we appreciated after a couple of earlier attempts with more well-meaning but gypsy-like sitters. We're cautious, maybe even a little paranoid, about who we give apartment keys to but within five minutes of meeting him, felt reassured. We've had no hesitations about leaving him alone in our home since our return that first week to an apartment that was exactly as we'd left it. In our opinion, he is incredibly trustworthy. It's been two years and Richard's sat for our cats almost a dozen times - often at the last minute because we're so bad at planning ahead. Sometimes it's been for one night, others a week or more. We have no complaints, so finally got off our asses to leave a review. Despite being skittish and a nervous wreck when we returned from trips using other sitters, our one persistently neurotic cat has thrived under his care. She's usually lounging on the ottoman when we return, instead of hiding behind the desk and needing to be coaxed out. The other cat was on a medical regimen for months with as many as 3 different meds taken various ways and at different times. No problem for Richard. On return, our cats have always been healthy, clean, sociable, and remarkably relaxed. Richard's laid-back persona reassured us when we first met him and carries over to his behavior with our beasts, who treat him like one of the family now. He's kind to them, competitively priced, always there when we need him, cleans the litterbox, and can be trusted with our keys. Seriously, stop looking.

I have never used a cat sitter and I have had my cat Felix for five years. I finally had to hire a cat sitter and I couldn't be happier with Richard.

As for the visits (I do 2 a day), Richard does exactly what I ask, and the best part is that he texts at every visit to let me know how Felix is doing. I have used Richard twice so far and I will definitely be using him in the future. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

    DO NOT BOARD YOUR PET HERE. UNTREATED INJURIES AND MEDICAL NEGLECT…read more I boarded my dog, Bugsy, at Brooklyn Unleashed for 10 days (April 8-20). I returned to find him in a horrific state: multiple bite wounds and punctures on his ears and muzzle, and a severe, painful UTI that was left completely untreated. The most disturbing part is the medical evidence. I took him to the vet immediately, and the clinical report confirmed that the lacerations were in an active healing stage and already over 48 hours old at the time of pickup. This means the owner, Andrey Tevlin, and his staff watched my dog suffer with visible head injuries and a painful infection for days and NEVER NOTIFIED ME, despite their contract stating they would contact owners for medical situations. My dog is now straining to urinate and requires over $2,800 in emergency medical care and X-rays because they failed to provide basic supervision or the "Duty of Care" they were paid for. Andrey has gone silent and refused to take responsibility for the neglect that happened under his watch. I have already filed formal reports with the NYC Department of Health, the ASPCA, and am pursuing legal action in Small Claims Court.

My dog studied hard for the next few days LOL and we arrived at 4 with all the veterinarian papers. I was greeted by the VERY NASTY OWNER NAMED ANDRÉ!!! The way he greeted me was the biggest red flag, as this made me wonder if everyone acts like him in this place and why would I want to leave my precious Hope with a person like this.
