Very heartbreaking! Do not trust what's advertised or stated.Ms. Basinger cancelled sales agreement contract within 24 hours of scheduled pick up of puppy. Ms. Basinger stated she had “serious concerns wether or not you will be financially able to provide for this puppy". This was a result of my request that the puppy’s immunizations be updated according to the promise of “current vaccinations” in the advertisement & per the website’s stated " strict vaccination & worming schedule". Ms. Basinger contended that once I had paid the deposit for this puppy it’s healthcare was my financial responsibility not hers. I disagreed & voiced my opinion that it was the seller’s responsibility to provide updated vaccinations according to statements per advertisement & website & per the date of ready agreed upon. As a result, Ms. Basinger refunded my deposit effectively cancelling the agreed upon contract within 24 hours of picking up puppy.

I want to thank you for this beautiful and bright boy. Mr. Magoo (Mitchell) is perfect. His temperament is outstanding and he is so smart. You were so easy to work with. If I get another dog I will definitely get it from you. Lauren Kelly

Hi Melissa,
I have been meaning to email you. Happy new year! We changed Clint’s name to Snuggs cause he is so snuggly. We absolutely love him. just wanted to thank you for the smooth process and being responsive to emails and questions. I think today may have been his first snow! He loved it. He turned right when I took the pic.

Sincerely,
Ann & Josh

Both of these dogs came from you… I love them so much! The toy poodle you had named Brandy I changed her name to Josie...I got her last year on September 29 and the brown one is Shiloh I changed his name to a Fozzie. I got him this year on December 30. They absolutely love each other. Thank you for having such awesome puppies. Denise Waterhouse

I just wanted to give you a quick update on (Meagan) who we’ve renamed Poppy Lu! She is the perfect addition to our family and we are all smitten. 🥰 People ask all the time where she came from and I refer them to you. Our neighbors actually bought a havapoo from you after they met Poppy. Hope y’all enjoy the upcoming holidays!

Hey Melissa!

Hope all is well. Just wanted to share this picture of Tommy I grabbed this morning. He’s such a cutie and so well behaved. He’s almost fully vaccinated and the vet said he’s a very healthy pup. He’s loving his backyard and even knows how to play fetch already! Super smart. Thank you for bringing Tommy into my life!

Best,

At first, I was nervous about purchasing a puppy online in another state, but Melissa made me feel comfortable (even amidst the Covid-19 pandemic) and promptly answered all my questions over the phone and through email. I am absolutely in love with little Alice! She’s a 2 lb nine-week-old apricot toy Maltipoo. We had to take two planes back home from Arkansas and she was extremely well-behaved and confident for a puppy her age; absolutely no barking or whining which took me by surprise. It seemed like she was already well-socialized and crate-trained. All the flight attendants requested to take photos with her and she was just a doll about it! When I took her to my vet back home she said that Alice was in perfect condition and that she came from a great breeder. She is the happiest, most playful, healthy, and curious puppy. She was my best decision, and she brings me such joy. Adopting a new puppy can be nerve-wracking at times but don’t worry if you’re adopting from Melissa. She exceeded my expectations in every aspect! Little Alice is so perfect.

Hi! I’m not sure if you remember my pup but I adopted him from you back in May 2017! This is Theo :) He’s a maltipoo and we JUST celebrated his 3rd birthday on the 27th!

Theo is the most loving pup we’ve ever had. He’s always had the sweetest intentions! When I first brought him home, he cried in his cage for so long that I couldn’t help but bring him into bed with me. (I was desperate for sleep, and willing to risk a puppy accident for it). To my surprise, I never woke up to an accident. EVER! Keep in mind, he was 8 weeks old! I could go on and on about why Theo is the best dog in the world, but I’ll let the pictures do the rest of the talking :)

I am so grateful for him. He lights up my world and I am blessed to be his momma. THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for bringing this sweet baby into my life. (Theo when I brought him home vs now!)

Logan is such a love, and a cuddle bug. We absolutely love him to bits! He is the perfect dog for us. Now that he is 1, he has been on guard when my husband leaves for his overnight job. He will bark and let me know if someone is near the house. I've got a great little guard dog. LOL. He loves walking on the Doodle Trail and watching the trains come through town.

Thank you for your hard work with breeding and raising your dogs. We will hopefully get Logan a friend and walking partner in the future.

I have attached some photos for you to enjoy.

Sincerely,
Debbie Cornette

This is Ava today is her birthday she is 1. She is 3.5 lbs and let me tell you she is a show stopper everywhere I take her people have to stop and ask about her and I tell everyone about you. We live in Texas now but when we went to the vet in North Little Rock the vet asked for your name she was so impressed with Ava. Now in Texas I took her to the vet to get her toenails cut and again they were crazy about her. They threw such a fit over her I said “I know y’all see a lot of dogs is she really as cute as I think she is”? There response was she is one of the cutest they have seen. Her personality it capturing. Here is her pic. We are having her birthday party tonight. The whole family is coming to celebrate. She is so loved.

Melissa - Just a short note to let you know how much we are enjoying and loving our puppy. Have never had one that loves everyone and is non-stop running and playing.

We made a great choice in our pup! Thanks!
