My Maltipoo, Joey, will be 10 years old at the end of this year….it’s been 10 years of pure joy! He is an intelligent, spirited, cuddly little bundle of love and companionship! Best of all, he is in great health and has never had any medical issues. Though I was living in Iowa when he joined me, we now live in the southwest where we can both be outside all year long. I would highly recommend Denning Farms and I thank them for my Joey!

We purchased our 19 week old Cockapoo (male - named Gipper) from the Denning Farms on December 11, 2021. We are a senior couple in our late seventies and live near Seattle, WA. We asked Tricia for the most laid back or easy going cockapoo out of her litter of 5 males and 2 females. She helped us pick the male B cockapoo (Gipper).

Our experience with Tricia was outstanding. She went out of her way to make sure that the puppy was sent via airplane on a non-stop direct flight to Seattle for the safety and concern for the puppy's welfare and comfort.

Gipper was an addition to our house to fill in for the loss of our beloved Cockapoo (Scooter - female) who passed away (age 15 years old) on September 13, 2021.

Gipper is the most wonderful puppy we have ever raised. He is extremely bright, easy to train and the most affectionate dog we have ever had for a family member. He has brought so much happiness and life into this household. The very first night he slept 9 hours. He has continued to sleep quietly every night for at lest 8 - 9 hours. After only 2 1/2 weeks he is almost house trained. He learns something new everyday. He is not a barker (except when he sees a dog or hears another dog). Yesterday, he learned to sleep in a dog bed during his afternoon resting times.

This is the best Christmas present to ourselves in decades. Thanks to Denny Farms and Tricia for making this possible.

Our Cockapoo, Bailey, is the best dog I have ever had! She is so loving and such a cuddle dog. She loves to play and go on walks everyday!

Everyone that meets her says she is the most lovable dog - always giving kisses!

She rings the bell to go out rarely has accidents - so smart!

She sleeps with us and cuddles so much it is adorable.

Thanks so much for this precious gift in our lives!
