    Great way to find good homes for your pets. My posting reached many people and I found good homes for my puppies. Easy to use and very reasonably priced. Puppies.com even detected a couple scammers that were trying to contact me about a puppy in time for me to not get involved with a scam! I will definitely use them again if I ever need to find a home for a pet! I would give a 100% score!

    We bought a Toy Poodle from a breeder on Puppy.Com. The breeder who we thought was legit. She actually sells puppies for a lady that appears on the top 100 puppy ***** list. We were so upset when we received his AKC paperwork and realized the dog wasnt registered with the seller. I sent an email to Puppy.Com and I was told that they dont get involved with the these complaints

    Hello,We do not have any correspondence from the email on your review. I am sorry to hear you are having difficulty with this seller. Puppies.com is a bulletin board service and is meant to be a means to initiate the meeting between a buyer and a seller. We therefore do not get involved in the terms or completion of any transactions. Every seller/breeder goes through an approval process but as stated in our Terms of Service policy, we are not able to offer any guarantees that the individuals listing on the site are reputable breeders. Because of this, we always recommend that people follow our Buyers Tips when searching for a puppy online. If you feel the Seller has not fulfilled their end of the contract, you always have the option of pursuing legal action against them.You also have the option to leave a testimonial on the seller's account if you purchased a dog from them through Puppies.com. To do so, click on the seller's profile, scroll to the bottom, and then click on the Leave a Testimonial link.If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact ** at [email protected] Support

    Really shady company protects their listers because they pay for the services. Dishonest and shady practice. Practicing under false pretenses to provide a contracted service but will not allow honest reviews of the sellers to be posted. Protects fraud and mis handles their customer service. Will only allow commenting if you purchase through them. Not a proper forum for honest sales.

    Puppies.com

    Hello,Puppies.com is an online bulletin board service and does not get involved in the transactions that take place outside of the website. In order to post a testimonial for a seller on the site you must purchase a dog from a listing that was posted on Puppies.com within 2 years of your purchase. If the seller disputes a testimonial the buyer will be required to provide proof of purchase in order to keep their testimonial active. If you feel a seller has not adhered to the contract you had with them you have the choice to seek legal action against the seller that you contacted.If you have additional questions on how the site works please contact us at [email protected] Support

    ****************** aka Puppies.com can be sneaky in taking your money but will not refund even if the account hasn't been used. I canceled my membership 9/22 and they are still currently charging me. I had to cancel my card to stop them from siphoning my bank account.

    Hello,Pupppies.com was previously named PuppyFind.com not ******************. In order for a listing to be posted on the site and your contact information to be visible you do have to pay for a membership.It appears you paid for a recurring billing membership in August 2022. You had a listing posted on the site and your contact information was visible on your profile from August 2022 to March 2023. You responded to messages from buyers through the site in September, October 2022 and February 2023. You canceled your recurring billing membership in February 2023 and then deleted your listing off the site in March 2023. The membership that you paid for was used, but as a courtesy we already refunded the February and March charges back to your card per our email correspondence with you. If you have additional questions please contact us at ******************** Puppies.com Support

    They sell your listing to Oodle.com long after the add expires with photos of your pet.

    Puppies.com

    Date: 03/30/2023

    Hello,We do not sell anything to Oodle.com. To maximize the exposure of our members listings, we partner with Oodle.com (an online classified service). Listings posted on Puppies.com are automatically linked and posted as-is on Oodle.com, as well. If a visitor of Oodle.com selects the ad, they will be redirected to your listing on Puppies.com. No personal or sensitive information is shared with Oodle.com, only that which you choose to make available to the public via your Puppies.com listings.If Oodle.com has not updated and your ad has been removed from Puppies.com, then if someone clicks on the Oodle.com ad it will redirect to Puppies.com and state the ad is no longer available. Once Oodle has updated the ad will no longer show on that site.Puppies.com Support

    Hello, We offer different ways for you to report and protect yourself from fraudulent or suspicious accounts via our REPORT and BLOCK options. Clicking REPORT will allow you to flag an account for us to review for anything that seems suspicious, fraudulent, violating our terms of service, etc. Choosing to BLOCK accounts will stop them from being able to see or interact with you on our site. You can find these options in two spots on the site. First, you can find them in the message center at the bottom of each message written in red. You can also find the REPORT option in each listing written in red if you scroll to the bottom of the page of a listing you are viewing. We also encourage everyone to visit our learning center and review our article on avoiding scams and fraud, as well as our Buyer's Tips.If you have any other questions, please feel free to reach out to us at ******************** Puppies.com Support

    All the breeders I contacted have invalid information. I no longer trust this website for finding a puppy.

    Hello,The only time a message would be removed from your message center would be if the account was removed as a scammer, which would also remove the messages they sent to protect our legitimate members on the site. In your situation it appears you had created 2 accounts on Puppies.com, so the messages you were trying to retrieve were located on your other account. We have allowed you to retrieve your messages from the second account and then removed it to prevent further confusion.If you have additional questions please contact us at [email protected] Support

    I used to have a lot of success with puppy finder. Since all the changes took place Im not even getting inquiries on my puppies. I pay the monthly fee. Im wondering if Im missing something.

    Puppies.com

    ************* (previously PuppyFind) is not associated with Puppyfinder.com. I did find an account for you on Puppies.com.If you complete all verification options available through the "Verifications" page within your account, your listings will appear higher in search results when the *** Verified Sellers" Order by option is selected. This can hopefully lead to more inquiries from potential buyers, and can help assure buyers that you are a legitimate seller.
