We recently purchased a 4 year old Yorkie for $2500 from Tiny Puppies World off of the site Good…read moreDog. According to that site we were supposed to get a dog that was seen by a vet and approved for sale and had all updated shots. Imagine our disappointment when we arrived home to see her shot records only included shots from when she was 1 months old! No rabies shots ever, which is illegal in FL! I reached out to the owner who also stated she had never given her heart worm medication either! I also sent her a picture of Bellas teeth which were in terrible shape. So basically they just bred her and made money off her and then sold her. The owner did agree to pay me for vaccinations and testing (thank goodness she was negative for heart worms). She did pay some after various excuses but missed (again) a promised payment. Please don't buy a puppy from Tiny Puppies World.

Lorelei was 7 when we were blessed with her and she was a blessing to us for 7 more amazing years until she passed over the rainbow bridge.

As someone who is allergic to cats, I wondered if I should even go, but the cats are in their own space which is behind closed glass doors and it was fun watching them as we ate. It didn't affect me one bit. The coffee was so good and hot. They specialize in teas as well. The star of the show were the pizza rolls and the roasted garlic focaccia rolls. We also shared the flakiest ever apple danish. We were stuffed, but had to order another danish to try, this time cheese. So delectable. We will be back!

Went in, looking for an adult cat. Had looked online at a few of the adult cats, and was debating…read morebetween two. Also considering one of two kittens. I had decided i wanted to get another cat after having to put my old cat down (he had gotten cancer after an 18 year life). After being told that the adult cats were each part of a bonded pair, but not each other, and one of the kittens I had liked was also part of a bonded pair, I decided to see the fourth kitten; I was mostly interested in only one, for now, due to my roommate's cat. I was taken to see the cats in another section of the shelter by one of the volunteers. He was housed in a kennel with a second cat, who was much more friendly. The cat I had been interested in was very fearful, and kept hiding- even batted at me, without claws, but was willing to be handled. After deciding I was taking the kitten, the volunteer thought I wanted the friendlier of the two, but I knew I had the time and patience for the more fearful kitty. He is now my constant companion and I am glad I brought him home. Don't discount the fearful, they have plenty of love. He was healthy, neutered, had been in a foster temporarily, and waiting to come home. Took his records to my vet, and he needed nothing for his annul checkup. Can't wait to spend another several years with him!
