I am very thankful I chose Denning Farms to find my Cavachon puppy. She was described to me as “bubbly” and she certainly is. Just a sweet, fun, adorable companion. Just what I was looking for and more.

Our “Leo” purchased on 6/14/21 is a warm, cuddly, smart Cockapoo!! She came to us after losing our 10 year old Cockapoo and could not have more completely filled that void. The entire process working with Tricia and Denning Farms was fantastic and I would recommend them to anyone who asks!! Leo is beautiful and loved by all who meet her!!

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 brought our Ozzy and Max home on December 20, 2019. They are the sweetest puppies, very lovable and smart. Working with Tricia was wonderful. We wanted two puppies from the same litter and she recommended these little guys because they got along well. They still do! They are lively and playful and have so much love to give. We comment daily how sweet they are. We are so glad to have them! Thank you Tricia!

Bailey is the prefect puppy and she fit into our little family right away. She loves to cuddle and is super friendly to everyone she meets. My experience with Tricia was super positive. I am from Missouri and I was a little hesitant about putting a deposit down when the dog was out of state but Tricia was so professional it helped reassure me this a the right decision. I definitely would get another puppy from Tricia.

Rudy was in a litter born November 2011. His original owners purchased him from you. Unfortunately Rudy couldn't tag along to college with her. We have had Rudy since July 2012. He has been amazing little guy. Such a mama's boy. He is extremely intelligent and super snuggly. Even at almost 10 years old he still plays as if he was 10 months old. He has never had any health issues. He is perfect! He is such a joy to have in our lives. I was a bit worried when my daughter was born in 2015 but Rudy took on this whole new personality. He was a like a caretaker and watchdog. He would watch her all night and alert us if she cried. I had a bad asthma attack while I was pregnant. Rudy nudged my inhaler to me. He didn't leave my side until I was ok. I may live far away but I will recommend you to anyone looking for a cockapoo. Thank you!

This testimony is long overdue. We received our teddybear shichon puppy in January 2021. As a first time dog buyer this was a great experience working with Tricia. She answered all my questions upfront when initially researching as well as assisted in determining the best puppy to put our deposit on. She also surprised us with being in our area to drop off the puppy versus our drive to get him. Leo is a fabulous puppy and has a very similar demeanor to what Tricia relayed when he was only 8 weeks. He is an absolute joy to our family! Thank you so much Tricia to you (and your husband for the drop-off) throughout this process. I highly recommend Denning Farms for anyone interested in one of these breeds.

Our maltipoo, Milo, turned 1 year on July 4. He is the most wonderful pet anyone could ask for. He brings us a tremendous amount of joy every day. Milo’s temperament is that of a sweet, loving dog. We wanted a lap dog and we definitely got one. If we are sitting down, he is in our lap!!! He is very smart and trained easily.
Best. Dog. Ever
