    Windy Way Hill Puppies - Look at this precious lil baby Ellie may!

    Windy Way Hill Puppies

    (27 reviews)

    Getting your first puppy is a daunting task and I'm so glad to have done so with Windy Way Hill!…read more The anticipation as I waited for Cindy's updates on new litters was UNREAL. I had missed one while I was away but another litter came along soon after. We wouldn't trade our white & tan Maltipoo, Carrie, for anything else! Carrie passed with flying colors during her first vet exam the morning after she came home, weighing just 1.7 pounds. The vet enthusiastically noted that Carrie is a healthy pup that definitely came from a breeder that cares for her puppies. Her nails were trimmed and butt hairs shaved. Carrie is well socialized and does not mind being handled. She is an avid cuddler who enjoys falling asleep on my lap, and anyone's lap for that matter if they'd let her. Despite the uphill battle that is potty training an 8-week old puppy, we are happy to have a healthy & happy pup that is bringing so much joy to my life and those around me. It's like I won the lottery and all my friends started popping out of the woodwork to come visit! Cindy happily answers questions and concerns via text and email. Only thing that I think Cindy can do better is more frequent updates-- we averaged one update with 3-4 pictures every 2 weeks. I was antsy with anticipation for the next update which made the 8 week-wait once you reserve a pup at birth rather hard to deal with.

    Well, where should I begin?…read more We had been looking for reputable breeders of maltipoos for 8 months with no success. We were willing to travel around the NY, NJ, LI, CT area as well as the DC, MD, VA, Delaware region but all the breeders had large numbers of horrific complaints as they were all puppy mills. Then our luck changed and we found Windy Way Hill Puppies online. The testimonials were great, this was a breeder that you could visit, and there were no complaints from anyone on the Internet so we took a chance. Wow! We could not be happier. From start to finish, this is a real high-quality, class act! Cindy Barrett, the breeder, was always responsive to my many annoying questions over many months. She really helped us through this somewhat scary process of getting a new pup. Fast forward to a week ago when we picked up our gorgeous little ball of white fluff, with apricot ears. She was checked out 2 days later and found to be in perfect health by a Vet. We are in love with this cute, very active puppy. Cindy makes things easy by having an assistant, Lucas, drive the babies up from Lebanon, Va to Manassas. It only took us an hour for the arranged pickup. Really folks, if you want well cared for puppies and a wonderful breeder, Windy Way Hill Puppies is your place!

    Watauga Humane Society - Our puppy 1 month after getting her

    After seeing a photo of the cutest puppy ever on the Watauga Humane Society website, we drove up…read morethe very next day to meet her and her remaining female littermates. The shelter staff were extremely friendly and helpful, quickly bringing all 3 puppies to meet us and our friend in a relatively clean visiting room, complete with 2 chairs and a handful of toys. We played for the puppies for a while, and they obviously get 5 stars for playfulness and cuteness. After we had inevitably picked out the little runt we had first seen online, the staff came back and took the other two so we could see how she was alone, then they told us a little bit more about her and her litter's history. We then filled out a little bit of paperwork while our baby Poppy, formerly known as Ganondorf, was taken back to be microchipped and get one final checkup from the vet there. Then, for only $170 (plus a refundable deposit of $100 promising we would spay her when she is old enough), we got to walk out with the sweetest 2 month old puppy, a bag of her food, several toys, a coupon to a pet store in town for even more free food and treats, and the promise of a free spay surgery (on top of getting the $100 deposit back) if we bring her back there and use their surgeon. All in all this was a fantastic monetary value, and of course we are absolutely enamored with our new little buddy. 1 month later, I can say she's been an absolute gem so far. She's relatively well behaved for a puppy, which is probably just genetics and good luck driving her temperament, but she is also brave and very well socialized, despite us not taking her out much since she isn't fully vaccinated against parvo yet. The socialization, I attribute to the Watauga Humane Society, as it is very clear she was raised surrounded by love, and given plenty of care and attention.

    We dropped in to the Cornelius Animal Shelter today to donate some cat litter, treats and toys…read more When we lived in New York we worked closely with the local animal shelter and would foster sick cats and kittens through them until they were ready to go back to the shelter and get adopted. Our new place down here isn't big enough to handle fosters, but we still want to help out all those poor kitties. The shelter is set up to hold about sixty cats at a time (not sure how many dogs), though when we went there were under twenty of them. The cages are very spacious and clean which is important to not only the cat's health but to make them more "attractive" to prospective parents who drop in. There is also a nice little wooded area set aside as a dog walking trail, so there is a nice place where their dogs can get some exercise. The employee at the front desk was very friendly and appreciative of our donation. The location is a little off the beaten path but still worth visiting if you're looking to bring home a new family member. The cost to adopt a cat is $85 and it's $95 for a dog. I would highly recommend adopting over purchasing from a breeder or somewhere else.

    I have been to App New River Vet several times (about 6, maybe?) in the past 3 years to take my…read moredog, Junior, an 11 year old English Springer Spaniel, for appointments. I never considered this his primary vet as he as one in our hometown of Charleston, SC, that he has attended since I first took him home and who he usually sees for yearly check-in appointments, given that I visit often as my parents, other family, and friends still live there. That said, I have taken Junior to ANRV several times when I've had more urgent concerns regarding his health, such as allergies and hotspots and others. I have seen mostly all practitioners, Drs. Koh, Mervin, and McAdams, throughout my time here. I've had varying experiences. At times, I've noticed that interpersonal communications could be improved, but nothing bad enough to report or really even write a Yelp review about. (Once, I did cry after I left, because a provider said, "Aww, he's getting old. You know what that means, right?" sort of alluding to him being old and dying relatively soon, and, of course, I am super sensitive about my companion). Other times, I've questioned some of the procedures they've encouraged, wondering whether they are absolutely necessary or if they are just trying to gather more money. Overall, however, I have been satisfied and pleased with all of my visits. I wanted to write specifically about my experience today. I have been worried about my dog's labored breathing and finally called this morning to ask whether I could schedule an appointment for him to be seen. The receptionist noticed the concern in my voice, and urged me to come in right away to be squeezed in to be seen. Upon entering the facility, I immediately cried out of concern for my dog (note: this is not a common occurrence for me), and the two women in the front office were kind to comfort me. When I was taken back into the room, our vet tech was very kind with Junior, listening to my concerns, and gathering his vitals. Dr. McAdams himself was exceptionally receptive, effective, and quickly reassured me that everything was okay, providing me several options for treatment and allowing me to make an informed choice. When checking out and paying, the receptionist heard me discuss with my friend (who kindly came to visit us) that I was unclear whether my dog's ear was infected or not, and she quickly went to find the vet tech so she could clarify the diagnosis. Most importantly to me,the receptionist looked me in the eye and genuinely reassured me not to feel embarrassed or like I am "putting anyone out" for my questions and concerns about my pet. This was exceptionally kind and meaningful to me, and I sincerely left this afternoon feeling that everyone on staff cared about me and my dog. I appreciate everyone's help today and throughout my time in Boone, as they have accommodated my random, rather hectic and panicked phone calls and impromptu visits concerning my dog. If you have a pet in Boone, I would definitely consider coming here. Note, too, that one some days they are open late (until 8:00 pm) and even on some Saturdays. I would recommend meeting with Dr. McAdams as he is direct, no BS, and to-the-point, though all the providers have been kind and helpful, as well. Thanks, App New River!
