Testimonials

"Working with Mary at Kate’s Puppies was straight forward and stress free. I chose on their website a ten week old female puppy. The drive from Grand Rapids Michigan to Sugarcreek Ohio was a long seven hour drive but the minute I saw my puppy it was worth every mile and minute. Havanese are a a little difficult to potty train and the chewing of everything stressful but progress is being made. My Zoey is playful, loving and she loves to be cuddled. I encourage anyone thinking of getting a puppy to give Kate’s Puppies serious consideration."

"Hi Mary. Things are going well. We love Chewy & Luna! Luna is a doll and chewy is very sweet but always so nervous haha. They love to be together. They truly have a love-hate relationship, just like siblings when growing up do. We’re so glad we have them. Thanks for everything."

"Recently after putting down my Saint Bernard due to old age, I decided to search for a new puppy for companionship. To say it was quite the experience is being kind. When searching for the right pet it is imperative that you put forth extreme effort researching not just the breed, but the breeder, the references for the breeder. That is the only way you will come out with the perfect pet experience.

Education wise, I have three degrees and was still scamed by World Pet. This I found to be the worst experience that could happen. Animals should be protected. It appears nothing is sacred with thieves. There is nothing worst than dealing with the FBI, Better Business Bureau, etc. and nothing can be done because these people are that good at scaming your money with no thought other than themselves. The experience was almost enough to stop my search. After two months of research I was lucky enough to run into Mary with Kate's Puppies. I cannot recommend this breeder enough. She was the best thing to happen to me. Worked with me closely the entire time, sent pictures of the puppy, worked very closely on the flight to protect the puppy from over heating and stayed in constant contact daily until the puppy was in my arms. I almost wore her out with questions trying to make sure everything was perfect.

In looking at the picture of my boy, you can see he is healthy, beautiful personality, quality bone structure and coat and absolutely the best thing to come into my life. I cannot recommend Kate's Puppies enough. Should you be looking for a breed that is offered by Kate's Puppies and have any questions that I can answer, please feel free to contact me. You will not be disappointed purchasing a puppy from Kate's....trust me."

"Just dropping in and want to tell everyone who is going to order from you that they will be so happy with their purchase. I purchased Chloe who we renamed to Sophia. Had to meet Mary half way drove 4 hours there and back and I must say it was well worth it. She is the best fur baby she loves to cuddle and is so excited and ready to please us. We have had her for about a week now and she is already potty trained and also had her first cut and of course had to dress her like a doll baby. She came with shots papers food and a bowl and microchip option. Her first wellness check up is in a couple days but I am pretty sure she is fine no signs of worms or health issues. She loves chasing and playing tag with the kids and she also gets along with her cat brother and sister. I am so happy I found this site and who ever is thinking about it I'm definitely saying DO IT.
Thanks to Mary and Adam glad could put smiles on everyone's face in my household."

"Hi Allen I just wanted to email you and let you know how much we love Kenny. We call him Kenneth too sometimes. He is so good with the girls and not aggressive at all! I am so grateful that we were able to get him from you. Thank you so much!"

"Hi Alen.. I just wanted to send a quick note along with a couple pictures of Buttercup who we now call Lucy. We are over the top in love with her! She is absolutely the sweetest little girl, and I also want to add, she is a very quick learner. She melts the hearts of all she meets!! Thanks so much!!"

"These two beautiful girls who are now named FAITH and HOPE are bringing a lot of joy to our lives. They are growing up and getting adjusted to Texas just fine. We really love having added them to our family. As they grow up I will send more pictures."

"Our new baby girl was Sandy now Dora the explorer.. She is healthy, happy and full of herself. Getting her was a dream experience. No hassle. No scam. Got exactly what we wanted and asked for. Jack our boy ( 6mos) loved her from 1st sight, just like us.."

"Hi Allen - the surprise went off wonderful! I left him on the front porch and rang the door bell. I then hid in the bushes to see the surprise on their faces. They were so happy. They decided to name him Chip. This is my youngest daughter Sydney holding him. So far so good with everything. Hoping that house training him goes smoothly."

"Hello, my family bought a Havanese from you in December and we absolutely love her! We are thinking maybe one day we will look into getting her sister. My question is if my dogs parent s are having a litter anytime soon? The reason why i wanted a dog related to ours is because we love her personality. Thanks again!"

"We are loving our baby pup from you!! We named him Mason! He is doing so very well. Our trip back with him was excellent. He is really a beautifully dispositioned puppy. We feel so blessed to have found your service... thank you again for everything. Here is puppy Mason's first sunrise! All the best."

"Just wanted to send you an update on Carlos ( previously known as Vandrager). It has been 1 week since he joined our household and I am happy to report that he is doing great. He misses playing with his litter mates but is starting to get along with his new "sisters". Everyone he meets loves him and he is happy to meet everybody. He is already about 80 - 90% housebroken and passed his warranty exam with flying colors. We love him lots already and hope he is with us for a long time to come. I will continue to keep you updated periodically. Here is a photo of him enjoying the warm sunshine and chewing on a leaf."

"I just want to thank you again for May and December, and the love and dedication you put in before these babies find there forever home , May is so smart she already knows how to sit and she knows to potty outside , thanks a million Allen for 2 Beautiful Saint Bernards."

"I wanted to follow up on the most precious addition to our family, Caleb renamed Gueedo. He has been the most wonderful, happy, confident, smartest dog we have ever had and NOT TO MENTION THE CUTEST. We got him at 13 weeks and though he was very small he was actually potty trained already. Of course a few accidents but goes every time he's let out and even asks to go out by sitting by the door!!! He has learned "come" & "sit" already and is a very affectionate sweet thing! Perfect health also! Thank you Allen for raising such a great pup that we will always cherish"

"Hi Allen, We found the microchip number on our health records, we didn't realize that was the chip number. Thank you for helping us out. We renamed Cameron as Cooper. He is a very happy and healthy puppy who is loosing lots of puppy teeth and fur. He weights a total of 12 pounds and 7 ounces. Not to mention he gets cuter every day. Attached are some pictures of him for you guys. Thanks so much for your help!"

"From the moment we laid eyes on Dot we fell in love with her. She is exactly what a Havanese should be. Sweet and spunky, full of life and energy, and most importantly adorable. Her temperament is one of the sweetest we have ever seen in a dog. She simply loves everyone; especially children. Health wise she's perfect. We have had no trouble of any kind regarding her stamina and physical growth. Her coat is soft and silky and completely unique. We can't express how happy we are with our little Dot. She became a member of our family from day one and has become super close friends to our older Havanese and Yorkie."

"Max new name is Falcor and he has grown into a sweet handsome dog. He loves people and his sister Dora a feisty Siamese cat. Here are some pictures. Thanks again for such a great dog."

"We changed his name to Cooper. We love him, he is so loving."
