Naphtali and I communicated through text and she walked me through the process, answered every silly question I had and sent me videos and pictures. Of course I was worried (like with anything on the internet now) that it might be a scam but I felt right away after talking to her that this was real. We FaceTimed and she sent me picture updates and videos. We live in San Diego so we were trying to figure out schedules to get out there but she had already planned on a trip out this way so she offered to drive our puppy directly to us. AMAZING! Our Rosey is absolutely the most well behaved, sweet, calm but fun and playful dog I've ever met. We love her so much And are so thankful to have found Best Friends Kennels!

I recently adopted (six weeks ago) an eight-week old puppy from Kaley's litter...Cathy was…read moreresponsive to emails and texts, and we had a lengthy phone conversation prior to her accepting my deposit. I brought home a little guy who was born right before Xmas 2025 and everyone, and I mean everyone, who has met him just thinks he's the cutest thing ever. Strangers, neighbors, people in stores, the vet and vet techs...everyone. He is mostly confident, he does startle sometimes with new loud sounds, but he stays put to see how I react. He does play hard w/ the 10 y/o corgi at my house, and also with my friend's two puppies, he really holds his own, but as puppies go, he's really calm (and I would say he was the most calm of his five siblings, based on the video I saw and Cathy's input). I would say they are as de-sensitized as they could be, after eight weeks (when we can adopt them). He is very sweet and very cute, and has been learning commands over the past few weeks (he is just coming up on 15 weeks old tomorrow). I hope to take him back to see Cathy and Mike the next time I get to PHX.

We are so fortunate to find Cathy as the breeder for our lovely Luna. We picked up our Luna when…read moreshe was 2 months old and she was grass pad trained and very comfortable in the playpen and sleeping in her own crate. The way they train the puppies early on really helped them to feel that crates are a safe space. We were amazed at how little training it took us when we first got Luna. Luna was also desensitized by all the different sounds and she was so calm and happy when she came home with us. Cathy and Mike guided us throughout our first few weeks by recommending Baxter & Bella to help us prepare for our puppy. Cathy is always available for questions and she constantly updates her breeder recommendation page to keep us updated. Cathy also allowed us to come to visit anytime for Luna to see her parents again and play with the other Cotons! We are really grateful for everything Cathy and Mike recommended and have helped us throughout this year. I can't wait to one day get another puppy from them when Luna is a little older.

My 81 year old mom moved to an urban setting with a small yard and a neighborhood with lots of…read moresmall, yappy dogs that sets off reactivity in her German Shepherd. Although the dog has been through several training programs, she had recently reverted back to being reactive on leash: barking, pulling, and lunging at any dog that barked at her or gave her a "look". Thankfully I found Rob's Dogs through a search online. Rob offers dog training either through individual sessions sold as a packet of 8 or 3, or you can elect to do a board and train method. Since my mom's dog had done two board and trains with other training facilities in Florida and Texas, I opted for the individual sessions sold as a packet of 3. Not to disparage the other training schools, I want to note that the dog had learned a great deal of commands, but she was a little rusty and selective when doing them and was selectively reactive on leash around other dogs. What we needed was a trainer that could come to my mom's neighborhood and see the dog being reactive in the environment where she was going to be walked. Thankfully Rob's Dogs offered this as an option. It cost a significant amount to do this, but it was possible. The additional cost was for the mileage and drive time to my mom's place. We had a meet and greet at the facility. Rob, the owner, met with us and got the back story on the dog and the current behavior problems. He took the dog and walked her around a bit and near other dogs, tested her response to commands and leash pressure. He explained the package options available to us. He also made us aware that we would be using both a prong collar and e-collar to reinstate her former training. We had these tools, but my mom hadn't used them with the dog since she left Florida, and I had never used them. We were assigned a trainer who was contracted by Rob. Lauryn was super friendly and had a love and full understanding of the German Shepherd breed. She herself had a German Shepherd. She went over the operation of the two collars which I was not familiar with at all. Rob's dogs sent us a link and password so that we could watch some important training videos. His website also had some very useful training tips. I highly recommend watching/reading this information carefully and then reviewing it again each week. It's easy for owners to slip into bad habits quickly which results in their dogs behaving in ways they don't want. You will have to enforce rules and get into a routine. Restrictions can be lifted once the dog consistently behaves as desired. You will find that YOU will have to do the hard work. The trainer and Rob's Dogs will assess your current situation and give you the tools and training to use those tools to reinforce good behaviors. It won't happen overnight. You will need to work with the dog for at least an hour each day to reinforce the seven commands and expectations. As I mentioned, we only had three sessions. This training was going to determine whether or not my mom could keep and handle her dog. Immediately after the first session, we started using the tools and putting restrictions in place inside the house to set the law of the land. Right away, we noticed a difference. While the dog was already really well behaved in the house, it improved her response to us when we walked her outside of the house. The prong collar made a drastic difference in her behavior when she saw other yappy dogs on the walk. I no longer had to worry about her lunging, pulling or barking incessantly in an aggressive stance. She still got up, moved forward, and barked once, but it was all very controlled. I didn't have to use all of my strength to hold her back. The real test came when my mom was able to walk her dog around other yappy dogs. After session two, my mom was easily able to do this, and I felt confident that continuing this training would allow my mom to keep her dog. Her German Shepherd is sometimes still reactive, but it is much more controlled and manageable now. In time, and with continued consistent practice, I believe my mom's dog will eventually stop the reactivity altogether. She has already shown amazing progress and only slips occasionally. If you are looking for effective dog training (well, really we know it is human training to learn how to effectively communicate with the dog), then consider Rob's Dogs. You will work hard to get your dog's behavior issues resolved, but the longterm results will allow you to have a wonderful relationship with your pet.

Her commitment to the Maltese breed goes far beyond simply raising puppies - she is deeply invested in preserving and improving the breed through thoughtful, responsible breeding practices. She regularly shows her dogs, and many have earned placements, which speaks not only to the quality of her breeding program but also to the care, trianing and attention she gives each dog. Her knowledge of the breed is extensive, and she is always focused on health, temperament, and adherence to breed standards. What stands out most is how much she genuinely cares - about her dogs, about the families they go to, and about the long-term future of the breed. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for well-bred Maltese from someone who truly does things the right way.

In 2019, my wife and I decided to purchase a Goldendoodle addition to our family. We texted Joella…read moreregarding the opportunity (Operating under Phoenix Doodle Ranch - no website - instagram only - same phone number). Her communication was spotty, but we agreed on a F1B apricot Goldendoodle for $1,850.00 and picked him up on November 17th, 2019. Joella never provided the dog's parents information, and would send us photos of an apricot coat doodle (which we requested), stating she would have a male available for us. Well we show up in San Tan Valley, and there are 2 males with light tan coats... No apricot doodles. They informed us it is common to have varying colors and thought nothing of it. We feel in love with the dogs personality and took him home. We often received remarks from other dog parents, questioning if it was a labradoodle, and brushed it off as him having a light coat. Well.... Fast forward 8 months to when we received a Wisdom Health Panel through our veterinarian as part of our his puppy health plan. The results.... we were defrauded. Paying a premium for what we believed to be an F1B Goldendoodle, when the dog is actually part lab (12.5%), part golden (25%), and part poodle (62.5%). The panel shows the parents were a labradoodle crossed with a goldendoodle. The dog is a bundle of joy, but the less than 75% poodle mix has left his hair straighter than most. Requiring more frequent grooming and issues with matting. I contacted Joella to discuss the recent findings, providing screenshots of our conversations confirming she would provide an F1B, and screenshots of the health panel proving otherwise. She responded that she sent in testing for the parents in question, 2 minutes later said the male is 100% AKC certified, and said she would give a full refund if we brought the dog back. I explained the dog is part of our family and we love him, but would agree to a 50% refund AND I agreed to pay for an additional DNA test out of my own pocket to confirm. She reinforced the only refund she would make is if we brought the dog back, and requested I never contact her again.
