    Curry

    I had an amazing and positive experience with Kim and her Southampton Shibas. Throughout the process of adoption, Kim helped me find my dream Inu, Curry. Two days after Curry and his littermates were born, Kim let me visit the little puppies. I was fortunate to watch the Shibas mature from little "potatoes," the size of my palm, to beautiful, seven-weeks-old puppies. Very few people have the privilege to watch the Shibas grow up since the moment they were born. I am very grateful to Kim for letting me play with the "potatoes" and be part of their growth. Kim is a patient and legitimate breeder. She will try to match the dog's temperament to the owner's personality and lifestyle to insure that the puppy goes to the perfect home. Kim gives helpful suggestions on picking the right Shiba (i.e. informing the future owner about the temperaments of each puppy) and also listens to other people's thoughts and/or concerns. Furthermore, Kim takes the time to give helpful advice. Whenever we have questions about training Curry, she always responds promptly and thoroughly. She even came to our household to give suggestions on where to put the outdoor and indoor playpen, where we could install a doggy door, etc. Not many breeders would have the kind heart to help out novice owners. I would definitely recommend Southampton Shibas to any Shiba lovers who are willing to do their homework beforehand.

    We were referred to Kim 17 years ago when we were looking for our first Shiba, actually our first dog. It is hard to describe the puppy we brought home. She was not only a beautiful, robust, spirited girl, but even-tempered, and devoted to us. She went everywhere with us for years -- including spending six years as an "office dog" with my husband and attending hundreds of kids sporting events as a virtual "team dog". People literally stopped us on the street to ask about her. She defied the reputation Shibas have for being difficult or stand-offish. There was no doubt we made the right choice when we chose to work with Kim. We lost Rosie at 15 a year and half ago, and when we were ready, we went back to Kim. Once again, she selected a puppy that she felt would be compatible with our family. Once again, we couldn't be happier. Gus is nothing like Rosie, a bundle of energy and antics, but with the same even-temperament and knock-out looks. As affectionate as can be. And a rollicking companion for three cats that are teaching him the ropes. Kim's business practices are simple and straight-forward. There was no pressure, nothing complicated. She takes the time to meet her clients and lets them meet her dogs in her home. She raises her puppies as part of her family and it shows. We got Gus at 8-weeks and he was already virtually housebroken and well-socialized. And although we had been waiting for another female, she reached out about Gus because she felt we would be a good fit. She got it right. It is not just a business deal for Kim. She loves her dogs and values the people she works with.

    Wasabi the Wonder Dog

    I have to update my review (still 5 stars) as I have a new 8 mo old named Wasabi. He is simply amazing! He has the best temperament ever...... he loves everbody and everything! I have never seen him anything but enthusiastic (except nail trims, but he doesn't complain about it anymore) This is exactly the reason why I will ALWAYS recommend Kim

    After extensive research, I can confidently say choosing to work with Irina was one of the best…read moredecisions we've ever made. From the very beginning, she was an absolute joy to work with! Kind, reassuring, and incredibly knowledgeable. As first time kitten owners, we had countless questions, and she was always so patient, responsive, and genuinely supportive every step of the way. What truly sets Irina apart is how much she cares beyond just the pickup day. She was there for us before, during, and even after bringing our kitten home, which meant more to us than anything having never dealt with a kitten before. You can tell she puts so much love, time, and intention into raising her kittens. Our kitten is everything we could have hoped for. She is affectionate, playful, cuddly, well socialized, and adored by everyone who meets her. She adjusted to us and even our puppy seamlessly and has been an absolute dream with zero issues. We feel unbelievably lucky to have her in our lives. I cannot recommend Irina highly enough. If you are considering working with her, don't hesitate. You'll be glad you did!

    We had the most incredible experience with Irina and cannot recommend her cattery enough. From…read morestart to finish, the entire process was seamless, professional, and so easy--communication was clear, thoughtful, and reassuring every step of the way. We selected our baby girl about a month ago, and she has been an absolute dream. She came fully potty trained and is the sweetest, most cuddly, playful, and friendly kitten. Truly, she is the best cat I've ever had. She's admired by everyone who meets her--family and friends are obsessed! My brother even calls her the "beauty queen" and says she's the prettiest cat he's ever seen. What impressed us most is her temperament. She's wonderful with other pets--my mom brings her dog over and our kitten is gentle and unbothered, and she's even fascinated (in the cutest way) by our bearded dragon. That speaks volumes about the care and socialization Irina provides. Irina is a trusted breeder who clearly puts so much love, intention, and expertise into raising top-notch kitties. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and will absolutely be back in the future. Highly, highly recommend!

Her mom adopted the sweetest chihuahua from Arf back in 2021, the fur baby went blind about a year ago. So we were really concerned about how she would settle in a new environment, and we're trying to rehome the dog I went to Joybound a few weeks ago to ask if there was any chance they take back their animals in these circumstances. The woman at the welcome desk was so helpful explaining yes they do. She walked me thru the process to fill out the forms online They got back to my friend promptly to setup an appointment for a behavior assessment and vet evaluation. We had our appointment yesterday at 2. We arrived a half hour early so we wouldn't be rushed , and to help Lily stay as calm as possible. Everyone we encountered was delightful and so kind. No judgements- Lily came alive with tail wags and enthusiasm to be back at such a supportive rescue group. She was just basking in the attention and love. She passed her behavior test with flying colors. We were told she most likely will be going to a foster home first for a few weeks before she's available for adoption. We were told we can follow her online with her name, and see when she becomes available and she won't be on the website anymore once she finds her next loving home. Thank you Joybound for standing behind your animals and supporting families We also did not have to pay a surrender fee. We were encouraged to take our time and enjoy complementary coffee or tea, also offered a box of tissues We were already pulling out of the parking lot before our scheduled appointment time Can't think you enough for your kindness all around this hard experience

I had two new kittens that I took in as a foster, but of course my family and I fell in love with them and kept them. At this event I got both of their first kitten shots, rabies shot, microchips, flea medicines and some cat food all for free!! Everyone was so nice and although there was a lot of people there taking advantage of the free services, they communicated effectively and everything was organized and not chaotic. I joined their mailing list and found out about their next event in Richmond. The kittens and I went down there to get their second kitten shots and cat food, for free! I got on the waiting list for low cost spay and neuter clinic. Friendly staff, nicely organized. I was suprised when I got the call from them for the neutering appts quicker than expected! Brought both kittens down, everything went well, again for free!! Today my husband, our daughter and I went down to their free pets stocking decorating event. Met with smiles, super cute room filled with stockings and puff paint pens on the tables. They had cookies and hot apple cider. All for free. We decorated stockings for the kittens and our other cat, it was a lot of fun and they had a good turnout! While our stockings dried, we walked around a bit and found they had a boutique! We made Christmas donations for both cat and dog items that they matched! And we got our large dog some Christmas Jammie's on clearance for $5. Boutique was well priced, my husband got a Joybound hat! So onto the animas they had there! First we passed the cats. All of them cuddling in super nice beds, they had nice toys, scratch pads, colorful wallpaper in their individual rooms, information sheets on each door for each pet. The dogs had the same, nice fuzzy beds, toys, little slots to give them treats down this tube. So cute!! I typically can't look at shelter pets because I feel so bad for them. These animas all looked happy and very well taken care of! There was staff walking around regularly checking in on people since they had adoption available. I asked a few questions they were able to answer no problem! They seemed very caring and committed to the animals and putting their best foot forward in helping the get homes. Building super clean, staff super nice, animas all cozy. Overall, we have a great opinion of Joybound with all these diverse experiences we've had with them. The people are so nice and welcoming. We're so grateful for them and the help they provided my kittens, saved us a ton of money!!! And for all they do, thank you!!!!!!
