Atlas is an all black German Shepherd who came into my life when I didn't even know I needed him. My mom (Lana) got her amazing baby Lucifer a short time before I got my Atlas. I fell in love with Lucifer and realized I needed a baby of my own. Michael and Jeanette brought Atlas into my life and just knew we would be a perfect match. Atlas is the most incredible dog, companion, and protector. I've never had a dog of my own and never thought I would but because of these amazing human beings I now have Atlas. He's changed my life and brought happiness back into my life. Michael and Jeannette not only perfectly matched me with Atlas but are always available to provide advice and guidance on what to do. They have made owning a dog for the first time the most amazing and stress free process. They are incredibly insightful and knowledgeable. My life has forever changed because of them.

I am eternally grateful to Jeanette and Michael Kempkes for my amazing Lucifer. He is absolutely…read moregorgeous, healthy and has the best personality. He is my best friend, love-child, constant companion and loyal protector. They matched a perfect dog for my personality and character. Thanks to Michael's custom training, Lucifer is always well behaved and poised. He travels with us everywhere, and is comfortable in cars, planes boats, etc. Michael and Jeanette are always there to answer any questions I have or provide guidance. In fact, thanks to Luci, they have become family and I am very grateful to have them in my life. Michael not only trained Lucifer but also taught me how to provide Lucifer with what he needs, so that we can have the best possible relationship. I was so impressed with Lucifer and my experience with them, that I reached out to them for a german shepherd for my daughter. Once again, they found the perfect dog with the right personality for my daughter. Atlas has become my daughter's best friend, companion and executive protection dog. As Lucifer is getting close to an age where he can be bred, I decided to get a female german shepherd as well. Of course, I reached out to Jeanette and Michael and the search is on for the perfect. Mrs. Lucifer, lol. For those with discriminating taste who will not settle for anything but the best, I highly recommend Jeanette and Michael. I find that it's difficult to find people who still possess honesty, integrity and decency. So when I met this amazing couple, I felt it immediately and decided that they must stay in my life forever. Thank you again for everything. Looking forward to finding Mrs. Lucifer.

Most important is that the dogs are healthy and have wonderful dispositions. When we arrived we were given hand sanitizer and Lysol and breeders had on masks so I appreciated the conscientious handling of things. She brought mother dog out to meet us first and then father dog who was also on premises. She answered my many questions patiently and really seems to be a kind hearted person. The dog we brought home is exactly what you would want. Great disposition, curious and not aggressive and learning so fast it's shocking. Pushing a bell to go out for potty on her first day at our house. The breeder provided some food to go home along with a littermate scented toy and towel. She asked questions from us and watched us interact with the dogs and checked to see how the puppy did on the ride home, I'm so happy to have found this wonderful breeder and the next addition to our family,!

The puppy that was delivered to me had massive behavior problems. Voracious digger =heartache. Aggressive towards other male dogs. I guess letting the father dog in to terrorize the babies really is not smart. She also tried to get my vet to falsify information... on and on it went. I returned the pup and gifted him to the puppy nanny who had delivered him to me. Again, this breeder inserts herself and snags him back. Please find a breeder that actually cares about the dogs and not buy from a breeder who is in it to support their own egos! Despicable B____!

I've been wanting to write a review for a few years now but now I'm letting everyone know my…read moreexperience with Timeless. I got my dog almost 6 years ago from Timeless. He's the love of my life and I don't regret him at all. However the condition he was given to me was so unacceptable. Poor Kenzo at just 8 weeks old was infested with Ticks, had an eye infection in his left eye and giardia. I was told I would get reimbursed for all of those medical bills that I had to pay right up front after purchasing a "healthy" puppy from Timeless but instead Karen eventually just stopped responding to me. Well now fast forward almost 6 years and he has been diagnosed with primary glaucoma (this form is hereditary) it's been a horrible diagnosis. There's no cure, it's extremely painful for them and eventually they go completely blind in both eyes. Please rethink on where you're getting your puppy from. Our sweet boy is now suffering everyday from this horrible eye disease that has no positive outcome and will leave him fully blind in just a couple years or possibly even shorter.

After landing on a Havanese (after some deep searching for the best breed for myself and my…read morefamily), I found Marti of Harris Havanese in Redondo Beach. Choosing Marti was easily the best choice I could have ever made and I am forever a client of Marti's. I will never look elsewhere when adopting my next Havanese (or a breed that isn't a Havanese, for that matter). I adopted Cookie, formally Cartier, from the "C" litter. From our first phone call in Fall 2024, Marti was attentive to the details of my life and what kind of puppy temperament would be best fit for my lifestyle. She is kind, SO communicative, and the most detail-oriented, loving, and caring person/breeder. Seeing how loved these puppies are far before they are even born was constant reassurance that I made the best choice. I would receive multiple texts/pictures/videos a day when Cookie was born. So anxious and excited to get my puppy, Marti answered all of my questions and was always so reassuring and kind. Cookie came to me loving her crate (this was a game changer), being exposed to so many sights and sounds (her groomer says she is better behaved than adult dogs she's been grooming for years ), and is the epitome of a perfect puppy and I truly owe it all to Marti because she set Cookie (and the rest of her litter) up for complete success. Everyone in my life is so surprised when they hear how young Cookie is because she is truly so well behaved, has a great sense of independence, and loves to just hang with our crew. Thank you to Marti and Gracie for loving these puppies with your whole heart. You both feel like family and I cannot express my gratitude for how you raised little Cookie.

They were not…read morevery far from my home area so I called Marti and set up an appointment to see the remaining two puppies in the litter. All of the puppies were there when I visited the next day. Each one of the puppies were absolutely precious and they were happy and lively. The mother was nursing all of them . I wanted a female and there was 1 male & 1 female left. All the other puppies from the litter were spoken for. I quickly fell in love with Roxie and gave my deposit that night. I had to wait another month until the puppies were old enough to go to their new homes. Marty updated me with photos of my puppy and she also provided me important paperwork to look review. The entire process was very easy. The home where the puppies were living was very clean and orderly. Marti truly has the puppies, best interest and was so sweet and caring and accommodating to me. I had asked if she could keep the puppy for one more week because of my busy work schedule, and she was more than happy to do that. I have never purchased a dog before, but this process was very easy. My puppy is absolutely precious and everybody that meets her is obsessed with her. She is an absolute delight, and very well-behaved. I might add. I highly recommend Harris Havenese if you are thinking about getting a Havanese puppy. Marti made it very clear that she's available for any questions or concerns that I might have. She is very well educated on this breed and I had full confidence in her from the moment I spoke to her on the phone.

Out of the blue in December, she became paraplegic and we had to have same day surgery to give her a chance to walk again. It's a $9600 surgery. Luckily she walked again after full on rehabilitation. But she injured herself again 5 months later. This is our first dog and I had no idea this breed has 1 chance out of 4 to get diagnosed with IVDD around the age of 4. I reached out to the breeder to get an idea if that was running in her family line and to let other families know that my dog had the issue so they can be proactive about it, most likely people who purchased a puppy from that litter has a much higher risk as it's genetic. Other people are going to run into the same issue, cost and major stress. They replied saying her parents were happy and healthy. No support whatsoever. This is a huge deal in my opinion and they aren't taking this seriously. I don't think I'm an isolated case. Anyone with a mini should take pet insurance at the very least we should have more information on IVDD from the breeder so we can be informed on the signs. If you don't get surgery within 24 hours, your dog will most likely be paralyzed. After surgery, she had to be 100% crated with strict instructions to manage pain with meds 3 times/day with food that we had to spoon feed. We were carrying her and holding her body trying to make her go potty. We had to have someone at the house 24/7 to ensure she's taken care of. Super long journey to get her back and she just injured herself again. Not as bad as she's walking still but it might be another episode of IVDD located elsewhere. I can't stress enough that the initial investment to get a puppy is just that.

Daniel contacted us and asked very specific questions about the Goldendoodle we were looking for. Daniel's expertise allowed us to figure out exactly what we wanted. Daniel maintained communication with us and answered all our questions (there were MANY questions). Daniel gained our trust and we decided to "Reserve" one of their beautiful Goldendoodles. There was no pressure to purchase this specific Goldendoodle. That made us very comfortable meeting this Goldendoodle. Once we met this Goldendoodle, we were convinced he was well cared for, healthy and came from a loving home and environment. This was important for us. We instantly fell in love with Maui and decided on the spot he was a great addition to our family. Maui has adapted well to his new home. This is greatly due to him being socialized and partially potty and crate trained. It's helped out tremendously!! It was a great experience adopting Maui from Doodles Los Angeles! They will certainly get referrals from us!

I decide to call and a older woman picks up I say hello good morning, who do I have the pleasure in speaking with? (I ask who it is I'm speaking with so that I can properly greet her ) she responds rudely& with an attitude "well you called me so you should know who I am" I say oh ok I do apologize but am I calling to Tropico kennels? She says yea. And then goes off on a rant that she doesn't answer her person phone often because she receives calls of people always trying to buy her house or sell her stupid shit. I said oh ok I understand but that was very unprofessional of you, I do not wish to purchase a dog off a business who doesn't know how to be professional or answer a phone call like a decent human being. So I then hung up. I would never speak to anyone that way regardless of the circumstances. Learn to be respectful and polite. Completely put me off and definitely will NOT EVER be buying a dog from this place. I'm editing my review because after a couple minutes my mom said she wanted to try and call to get information about the dogs. Because again my mom is interested in buying a puppy. So my mom calls says hello good morning I was wanting to get some information about the golden doodle puppies you might have. the same woman answers and says oh ok sure but can I call you back in a couple of minutes? My mom said sure not a problem and then the woman hung up. LITERALLY 1 minute goes by and I receive a message from this woman (I have attached a photo of the message) saying nice try! I did reply and then blocked her. Never in my life have I ever had an encounter like this. The woman then proceeds to call my mom back (I have attached a photo of the phone call as well that she called back) (as you can see she called back & the call lasted 14sec bc she was a COWARD & hung up) and say to her that she is not going to sell us any dog because I called and hung up on her, and that she should tell her daughter to not be a bitch. The woman proceeds to hang up. So I blocked her on both my mother & I's phone. Completely UNPROFESSIONAL and RUDE! We were only wanting information about the puppies! Which is why my mom insisted on her trying to call because she really wants a puppy. HORRIBLE experience!

I filled out her form to submit a deposit and had a few questions. Basic things you'd like to know before agreeing to spend $5000. Such as "how much will he weigh?". "I know the type of color and coat I'd like. Does the puppy I selected fit what I'd like?" and "might you have a photo of what he would likely look like fully grown?". I get a reply with her daughters Venmo info and nothing else I kindly asked again about my questions (thinking maybe she didn't see that part) and I get a dismissive reply saying she's too busy and suggests I find another breeder. Every other breeder I've reached out to who are surely equally as busy as Lisa have had absolutely no problem answering a few simple questions before taking my money because they want you to be happy with your puppy. As that is best for the pup and the owner. Her pups are $1800 more than almost any other breeder in the country. I'm not sure why, but it's definitely not because of their outstanding customer service. 2 stars instead of 1 star because she was at least clear that she won't communicate with you until you pay up. Lisa, I took your advice and have placed a deposit with another breeder.
