We adopted Alvin, a Soft Coat Wheaten Terrier, in mid August from John in Honeybrook, PA. Alvin is our first puppy and he has done nothing but bring smiles to our faces since he came to our home. We could not have asked for a better experience!

My husband lost his dad in December 2016 and in February 2017 we lost our German shepherd, Jake. My husband had been talking about getting another German shepherd puppy. Then we heard about Greenfield puppies. My niece was looking for a puppy for her uncle. So I stsrted searching for German Shepherd puppies on the site looking at puppies to get an idea for puppy names. In my search I came across Brayden and as soon as I seen him I knew he was the puppy my husband would love to get. So I contacted the breeder and left a message and he called later that evening and made arrangements to go to get him 2 days later. However my niece and her sister called as well and went the next day to get him as a surprise for their Uncle, whose birthday was the following week. My husband was extremely surprised and happy with his surprise! Brayden who is now called Colt is almost 11 months old and he is a big boy and very smart. The breeder did a great job with him. He already knew a few commands at only 3 months. We love him and are happy with how everything went. Would definitely recommend greenfieldpuppies.com again.

We had an awesome experience getting our boy!! We found his picture online one night and decided he had to be ours!! I called Sylvan S. (Narvon PA) at about 7:00 pm, he answered right away and we set up a time the next morning to go get him. We had a bout a two hour drive from Maryland but it was a beautiful ride and we were so excited! The house was easy to find. The kids greeted us and got Sylvan so he could get our pup for us to take a look at.

You know in super hero movies how they do that pose with their chests puffed out? Their hands on their hips looking all studly and proud? This little fur ball looked like Superman man as he ran out of the barn and posted up on the edge of the walkway. He basically said “here I am in all my gloriousness, look how amazing I am.” Always, we got to see him play with Sylvan’s son, meeting him was as easy as cake. You could tell he wasn’t super stoked about new people but he was easy going and confident. He seemed comfortable in his surroundings. I would have expect more timid and nervous behavior if this was one of those dreaded “puppy mills” (boo hisss baahhh).

We were 99.9% sure this was our new dog. We just needed to see mom and dad. This was the one stopping point for us. If we hadn’t been able to see his mom and dad we would have had to pass. Sylvan, bless this man, had to go round them up cause they had been up at the barn showing horses with him. Does that sound like a puppy mill? So not only do we get to meet Long Horn’s mom and dad but his aunti as well. Again, awesome temperament by all. His mom was playing with him and lovin’ on us, dad was checking us out and playing with the pup and they were all four playing in the snow with the kids. It was perfect.

And that folks is how we ended up with our Waylon, once known as Long Horn. I know it’s long winded story but I can’t speak highly enough of how wonderful of an experience it was. Sylvan had all the necessary paperwork ready for us, necessary shot records, he let us know what kind of food Waylon was eating so we could do a slow transition to our own brand. We got to see what good stock our pup came from. And most importantly Waylon was/is/has been healthy. No worms, no fleas, no bugs. Which is astronomically impressive considering he grew up on a farm.

Our little boy will be 2 years old in December and I can’t thank Greenfield Puppies and Sylvan S. enough for connecting us to this ball of energy. He has literally traveled coast to coast with me and my other fur baby Nalah (true story, at 7 months old he drove cross country with me). Our lives wouldn’t be the same without him. So, front the bottom of my heart, thank you!

Hi Christiann Stoltzfus, my husband and I wanted to let you know how Bethany is doing. We have named her Maggie Mae Izotic and she is the most loveable puppy. She is very happy and healthy and loves her new sister. Thank you so much for starting her life with so much love. We knew she was well taken care of. She is very smart. She is potty trained and learned the command sit. We are so happy we made the long trip to meet her and bring her home with us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Our beloved mini dachshund passed away about a year ago after 15 wonderful years. It took us awhile but we were ready to bring a new Doxie into our lives. We were looking for a dapple and searched for quite awhile. I finally found Greenfield Puppies and was delighted to see that a Breeder in East Earl, PA actually had three dapple babies. We called Me Louis Shirk and asked if we could come meet the babies the following Saturday. We needed to be there early in the morning and Me Shirk said he would make sure he was available to meet us. Louis , his wife and their brand new Baby were delightful. They brought the whole litter out to play with us. The 3 dapples were gorgeous! They were socialized and very sweet. It was difficult to choose but one but the Shirks told us to take as much time as we needed. He was kind enough to allow us to be the first ones to see the litter and allowed us to chose the pick of the litter for us! We held and played with the 3 dapples for well over an hour
Before finally choosing our little girl! I must say our experience with the Shirls and Greenfield was wonderful!
Little Lyric is an absolute joy! Beauty and brains! She’s so smart! We are extremely happy with her and we would highly recommend Greenfield to anyone looking for a happy, healthy, we socialized puppy! It was an awesome experience.

We were searching for a dobie, after lots of searching and finding nothing, I came across this website. I was very impressed with the professionalism and the Breeder was so responsive. We drove from Maine to Lancaster, PA. We went to meet the puppies and then stayed in a hotel and picked our Baxter up in the morning for the trip home. He has been a joy ever since. I will definitely come back to this site should we decide to increase our family again.

We were looking for a Dalmatian pup. After searching here in Canada, we gave up hope trying to find one. I decided to venture across the border and see if there were any pups available that were close to Southern Ontario. I happened upon the Greenfield Puppies website. First I have to say I love that you can look for your specific breed. So many websites show breeders with pups available, but then you click on the site and it was from 2015, so frustrating! We saw some pictures of some pups located in Strasburg, PA. It just so happened that we were travelling to Adamstown that weekend for a weekend away. The pups were only a half hour away from where we were staying. I contacted Mike, the breeder and we set up a date to meet. We arrived at a lovely farm up on a hill, what a view this place had! We were greeted by Mike and five little wagging tails. We instantly fell in love, but knew a pup had to pick us. Mike was so patient and understood that having a pup pick up was very important. We had a great chat with him and played with the pups for over an hour. We got to meet Mom and Dad as well. There was one little girl that just kept coming back to us, we knew that she needed to come home with us. I must say after reading some rather bad reviews, I would give Mike five stars. All of the pups were happy and healthy. They were bright and clean and ready to play. They all had an affection for Mike, and followed him wherever he went. The grounds were clean and well cared for as well. Our pup had all of her current shots and had been dewormed. She is healthy and happy and adjusting well to her new life in Canada. We are so happy that we decided to meet Mike and his pups. His patience and understanding were very much appreciated. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a Dalmatian.

Hi, In October of 2016 we lost our Standard Poodle Zeus. I knew that we would always have at least 2 dogs so I didn’t want to morn long over the loss of Zeus. I instead started looking on the net for a nice diversion and found Greefield Puppies. There we saw Carramia and fell in love. She was/is beautiful. We called the breeder, John King in Pennsylvania, and left New Jersey to see her. It was a ride but well worth it.

John King is a very nice man and he went to bring out our girl. Oh, was she stunning and prettier than in her picture. She was friendly, and she came to us to be petted and doted on. What a find! It was obvious that John had his pups well socialized. She gave us kisses and went to my friend Joe for more attention. John explained the paperwork, and we read and signed the papers. We were now the proud owners of a Beautiful Doberman Pup!

That was a year ago this month, Halloween to be exact. She turned out to be one of the best dogs we’ve ever had. She gives kisses, hugs (if you can believe that); she stands up, puts a paw on each shoulder and give loads of kisses. We encouraged it and now when we say “Give me huggems” she does this.

John, what can I say about John Miller other than he has wonderful dogs/pups and he is an honest man. He loves his animals and it shows. Thanks John for a wonderful addition to our home!

Regards, Patrick Miller & Joseph Nicklas

Be Sure of What You Are Getting – Extend Trust, But Verify the Information!

In 2015, we decided to look at puppies and were immediately drawn to the silver lab breed. We used the Greenfield Puppies website, to find a local Breeder. Overall, the process of using the website, meeting the breeder, choosing a puppy, and coming back at the 8 week mark to pick him up went absolutely perfect. From making the initial deposit, Steve Kauffman of Honey Brook, PA (the breeder) was so very patient and nice to us, including when we got there really late and it was dark and rainy. But he patiently retrieved some flashlights and an umbrella (and even delayed his dinner) to get the job done so we could get our guy home that night. I can’t say enough about how kind and accommodating the Kauffman family was for us, and I got the impression that it wasn’t just a show – they are simply just that nice. The only concern I had at the time was that we never got to see the father, although I didn’t think too much of it, since the explanation made sense to me – the dog was his cousin’s and not his. But this was likely a big mistake on my part… (More on that below.)

Fast Forward to today: As I am writing this, my big guy turns 2 years old in about a month (his litter birthday listed as October 28, 2105). We wouldn’t trade him for anything or anyone! He is the most loving, people-friendly, and even-tempered dog I have ever had, and he’s gotten quite a reputation and following in the neighborhood – everybody knows him, and many people will specifically take their daily walk past our house in the cul-de-sac, always taking a few minutes to stop and say “hi” to him on their way through. He really does stand out – whether on his own or with others, and one of the main reasons for that is his sheer size and mass makes you think he’d be less affectionate and more aggressive.

Which brings me to my main problem – We asked for, and were sold, a puppy listed as an American Labrador Retriever, Black with dilute recessive d gene (A so-called “Silver Lab”). And – I fully understood the risks and such associated with the particular dog breed. I expected that a mature adult American Labrador Retriever would weigh-in at around 75 or 80 pounds at a maximum.

Now, at 18 months old, you cannot convince me that this dog is an American Labrador, although he clearly has Lab in him. I am personally convinced that he is actually a Mastador – a lab/mastiff mix that’s been around for many decades (Disney’s Old Yeller back in ’57 was a Mastador). Why? Well… For starters, at his vet visit today, he weighed in at 161lbs. He is still growing at a rate of about 3-5 pounds a month.

Consider some of his other physical measurements and you decide:
From his withers, he measures 28” high and 28” long. Plus, he’s got 43” chest circumference and 24” Collar Size. Ultimately, as he has matured, his features have grown to resemble the pictures and descriptions of the Mastador breed appearance with almost perfect representation – right down to the sheer size difference and characteristic head shape (wider head, shorter snout than Lab). And – perhaps as more proof, he has a thicker, coarser, and more darkish “Mohawk” looking fur line that runs down his back and is very noticeable as his excitement level grows and that hair begins to stand up. This is usually when he is excited, his bark vocabulary is noticeably varied depending on his mood or state of mind, which is also characteristic in Mastadors.

So – my big disappointment is that I wish I would have known what I was getting. There’s no way I can think of that this would be some kind of accident. It’s more likely that the “absent father” was really a Mastiff, which is why he wasn’t there to see. It turned out as a very lucky thing for the dog, too – because I happen to have some property and a 5 bedroom house to live in. I don’t think I could have kept him if we didn’t have the extra room available. He’s a giant breed dog with all the needs and necessaries that come along with them. It would have broken hearts across the household to have to get rid of him, especially since the breeder had to know about this – he has the clear textbook appearance of an equal 50/50 Mastiff/Labrador mix. I see no point in going back to Mr. Kauffman, the dog is already part of our family and we wouldn’t part with him now unless we absolutely had to. But I do want to inform other future customers if there’s any chance they might read this…

The pic I posted with this is him at just 13 months and already north of 120 pounds, with his favorite 5 year old playmate behind him.
