Purchased a puppy. Our dog only lived 7 years. She had severe anxiety issues, was afraid of everything, didn't trust people, was underweight, had mites, and it took her a long time to warm up to us. I don't understand why he hasn't been shut down. All he cares about is the money. Our dog passed away unexpectedly because of a genetic disorder. We are absolutely heartbroken. We were lied to when we spoke to nathan initially. Said he was the breeder which I now know was NOT true. We rescued our puppy and gave her the best life that she could have ever had. She was only 7. Please do yourself a favor and don't buy from this seller. Sure... there are some happy buyers but know that these puppies are from horrible puppy mills. Not sure why the state of Ohio doesn't shut them down?

This business is a front for bad breeders. They offer known mills a means to unload puppies.

Our mini had kennel cough, worms, was under weight and came from a known puppy mill (recovered breeder's name from ACA paperwork). She was signed over to this company a day before we picked her up.

It is unfortunate that such entities are allowed to exist, considering the bad breeding practices they allow to continue.

If you are going to get a puppy/dog, consider a rescue dog, an SPCA dog, or a dog from a high kill shelter... don't feed this monster!

So confused and concerned about what I've read on some of the reviews. I purchased a sweet 14 week Yorkshire terrier that has been perfect! Sweet cuddly affection abounds! Eats sleeps poops perfect. So far everything i could ask for in a puppy! Im wondering now if what they are saying is true. Makes me feel very concerned. But my experience so far has been wonderful!

You can't get worse!
February 3, 2020

I live in Mt Vernon where these "people" reside. Their puppies come straight from local Amish puppy mills. There's a reason they say you can't see the parents of your puppy. It's not impossible like they claim. You can't see the parents because they live with the Amish in conditions that would keep anyone that wasn't a monster up at night. I beg you not to buy a puppy from these horrific people. Even if you would get very lucky and end up with a puppy that wasn't infested with crawling parasites inside and out, inbred, with behavioral problems, and taken away from his/her mom way too early, who by the way, has probably never set foot on grass and lives in a wire cage her whole life. You would still be contributing to the everyday torture of the poor dogs they DON'T let you see. There are lots of doodle/small dog breeders out there that will charge you less for a puppy that doesn't come from garbage like this.

Love littlepuppieonline
February 18, 2020

I love my little Dusty. He was in great shape. I had my doubts about buying online. But when I got my puppy I was over joyed. He passed the vet physical and hes been a real joy. No fleas, no worms. He was clean. The staff at little puppies online were great. When going to pick up my puppy from airlines, I got lost. They helped me contact the airline and find the building. I couldn't ask for more. So helpful and considerate. Here's my baby relaxing

The dog had 2inches by 6 inches of hair missing and they covered it up by not grooming him. They never groomed him and was told it was by fleas from the vet. They wont return phone calls or answer the issue. They were very manipulative!

My fiancé and I were looking for a puppy that had little dander problems that would be okay with my allergies. Ive never been able to have a dog and longed for that companionship. I heard about littlepuppiesonline through another website. We found a mini Maltese named Noah and completely fell in love with him. It wasnt 2 days later that I drive 7 hrs to go and get him to be part of the family. He brought Noah in and i instantly fell in love. He answered any of my questions concerning him and the adjustment to our home. He gave specific instructions for an easy transition and my healthy baby boy couldnt be happier. We will soon come back for another boy and will continue coming to littlepuppiesonline. Thank you for such a great blessing!

Love my Kiki
May 21, 2020

I am so happy with my purchase back in November of 2010, her name was Jasmine but we call her Kiki after we got her. She is 9.5 years old Malshi.
Kiki is a perfectly healthy dog, easy to train. As she getting older, we are now looking for another Malshi from littlepuppieonline, so she can have a friend.
The purchase was simple, don't remember there were any problem. They arrange Kiki'a flight from Ohio to VA without no issue, one of my happiest moment when she stepped out of her crate. My experience with littlepuppyonline was smooth.
I am allergic to dog shedded, it's no way I have choice to pick a small one, so adoption isn't a choice for us. Please stop judge breeder or buyer, my life my decisions!
Left picture: today Right picture: the first day
Her color changed, but still the same cute face!

You don't want to buy a puppy from these crooks. They are buying inbred pups from the Amish communities. You will NEVER see the parents, or know what bred they really are., or health issues.
DON'T let the cute puppy photos fool you. They will not stand by their guarentee when the pup dies or gets sick. You will be ignored. You will not know what the pup will be as it gets older. I, as with others I know personally have purchased pups that were sick or died right after purchasing the pup. You will be screwed out of a lot of money, to NEVER hear from these crooks again. They are in the business to make money only. They don't screen the buyers, they don't care, as long as they get your money. This business needs investigated. I will personally make sure this happens...

Just read all the negative reviews about sick dogs sold by these two and check out the Human Society's Horrible Hundred. Not a place to purchase a dog.

Inbreeding and overbreeding
August 14, 2021

Highly recommend not purchasing here. This is what I wrote to Puppies On Line:

I purchased 2 puppies from you approximately 5 years ago. I've had no health issues with Beauty, however Camilla has been plagued with health issues almost since we brought her home.

Aside from her lack of canine teeth and her severe skin allergies and dry eye which require daily meds, she has a sensitive stomach and must be on a strict diet to avoid digestive tract issue. One flare up required hospitalization. She also has issues with her spine and back legs and sometimes has difficulty walking. The latest issue is a severe case of kidney stones which will require yet another surgery.

The Vet explained a dog of this breed should not encounter these types of issues this young and said Camilla is an example of inbreeding or a overbreeding situation.

I write all this not for money, but for your awareness and hope you will change your practices to avoid intentionally bringing life into this world that will be filled with pain and suffering due to your actions and presumably greed.

I am deeply saddened by the whole situation and only hope that karma does not return the plague of health issues on you or those responsible for the immoral practices of this business.

Puppy Mill
April 25, 2018

Check the Humane Societys Horrible Hundred to see this company under Ohios worst puppy mills. Was deeply saddened to learn this after buying my own puppy from Nathan and Sara Bazler who really fooled me.

I don't know why this person said it's a total scam, because it isn't. I was coming online to give a review of our purchase and this is the first place I found. All I can say is that we chose from 6 or 7 puppies. I gave them a list of the ones we were interested in and they brought them in to us one at a time, adding them to the puppies already playing in the room. They made no attempt to hurry us up - just let us take our time to decide (and let the puppy decided who it wanted to live with!). We got an adorable Shorkie - only 3 1/2 pounds - and love her dearly. I kept in contact with them, calling them after 5 days to tell them Zoey (they named her Hilda) had a cough that started the day after we got her. They said to take her to the vet and if he prescribed any antibiotics, they would reimburse us. We did that, and sent the bill. Then after the 10 days of antibiotics, she was still coughing so they prescribed a cough pill. I received full reimbursement from littlepuppiesonline.com, credited back to the credit card we used to purchase her. This has been the only thing wrong with her. She is healthy in every other way, and never really was sick with the cough. She plays all the time, until she drops and needs a nap. Our other dog loves her and they run and play all day. She is very adventurous, and not afraid of anything. She is also very loving, and loves to be on you or near you. All in all, I would get another pup from them in a heart beat. I hope this helps you decide.

We adopted 'Shadow'; aka Bernie this past Tuesday.

We immediately took him to our vet which is actually a VCA hospital formerly owned by Dr Becket and his son, Dr. Todd.

We see Dr. Waters for our other dogs and so she saw him too.

She looked carefully at his records and did one fecal sample.

She checked him carefully from head to toe and said he was an amazing little puppy. She said, he did have the confirmation differences that I had noticed in bite and body length. But after a careful look, she is certain he won't have any problems as he matures.

He is eating well and is completely house trained. He hasn't had one accident. He did have several common parasites, but these are being treated and they have not caused any problems.

Socially, he has been and enormous hit with the other two larger dogs; one which we also received from LPO

He is also comfortable meeting the children who come for their music lessons as well as friends and family.

I am struck by his fun nature and his fetch capacity. He always brings me a toy and drops it as he waits for me to toss it again. He's very playful, responsive and smart. He trots around the house at heel and defers to our movements and activities.

(I have had many Field Labs in the past who were not this responsive in their younger years.)

He is sleeping well in the night in a crate by our bedside. And the other dog we got from you stays right beside the crate.

I wanted to add that our time spent with Cheyenne and Shanna in person, online and over the phone were simply fantastic.

At no point did we feel rushed or pressured. We did feel we had all the information my husband needed to determine if this was "his" puppy.

Actually our experience with our other Shetland sheep dog, poodle puppy,' Astro 'aka Harry was very relaxed and informative as well. We really appreciated this. This was a reason for our return two years later.
