We just picked up our eight week old long-haired dachshund male and we couldn’t be happier. Michelle was helpful and provided us education about dachshunds. We’re very happy.

A great service! A great dog!
It was easy to upload photo's of my pups, and write about them. Kudo's for a great site! I bought the mother of my pups through this site also! We bought our girl, who was 18 months old, and she was in great condition. Her name was Fluffy. But after 3 days at our home, she was renamed Happy, because that was how she was. Every one who met her became happy! We got her from a breeder in Northeast MD. Thru Lancaster Puppies . We can't thank Jacob and his family enough for our wonderful companion!

I purchased a puppy from Sarah Yoder…
I purchased a puppy from Sarah Yoder through Lancaster Pups. I was assured that he had been fully vet-checked, vaccinated, microchipped, and was in good health. Sarah specifically stated that he had a microchip and instructed me to scan a QR code and pay a lifetime registration fee for it. Unfortunately, these claims were false.
After bringing him home, I discovered that my puppy is ill and was showing severe signs of neglect and possible abuse. He was extremely fearful of people and his surroundings. Based on his condition, I genuinely believe he may not have survived much longer had I not taken him.
I provided Lancaster Pups with official veterinary and laboratory records confirming that he has no microchip, has received no vaccinations whatsoever, and is not in good health. Since purchasing him, I have spent more than three times the original purchase price on veterinary care.
Despite presenting this documentation, Lancaster Pups informed me that this is not their responsibility. In my experience, Lancaster Pups is knowingly selling sick dogs, potentially sourced from puppy mills, and providing falsified or misleading medical information. This situation raises serious concerns about fraud and deceptive business practices.

Hi there, we're truly sorry to hear about what you and your puppy have been through. No one should have to deal with a situation like this, and we appreciate you sharing the details with us.
We take reports of misrepresented health information very seriously. When breeders provide false claims about vaccinations, microchips, or overall health, it goes against everything we stand for as a platform. We want to make sure this is fully investigated.
If you haven't already, please send your veterinary records and any communications with the breeder to support@lancasterpuppies.com so our Trust and Safety team can review the account and take appropriate action. We also strongly encourage all buyers to use our Pet Payments service, which holds funds in escrow until you confirm the puppy has arrived healthy and as described, providing an added layer of protection.
We're glad your puppy is in caring hands now, and we hope he continues to recover well.
Friendly
Friendly, supportive, and knowledgeable about puppies. I adopted the sweetest, good puppy. I highly recommend using this breeder.

Dont trust lancaster puppies
This company contact me and asked me to join their platform. Against my better judgement (since this is a known puppy mill page) I accepted. I added my puppies. A couple days later I went to verify my id and it was denied. So I contacted the lady that called me and told her. She said that she would look into it. I them received an email that said it was verified. Then I received another email saying it was shut down and then another unverifying my ID. I emailed then about this thinking it was a mistake . I followed all guidelines and such. They said "they reserve the right to cancel anyone at anytime ".. so not only did lancaster puppies waste my time which is very valuable to me as a full time mother of 4 and pet owner and breeder they also got my personal information and photos of my identification documents. So either, they are against people selling puppies off their website that are not from puppy mills and are actually bred for health temperment and function. Against breeders that sell every puppy with a return contract and health guarantee or they are against breeders who also help rescue puppies that need it or they are just out scamming and commiting identity theft. Thank you lancaster puppies you are a real con artist.

Beware of scam listings
We "purchased" a Maltipoo listed on this site. We agreed on price, and set a time and address to pick up the puppy. Got to said address and the poor woman who answered the door had no clue about any dog, had never heard the breeders name. Clearly, a completely fictious post to scam people. DO NOT believe the "our breeders are vetted" bull crap. They clearly are not.

Tab was so great and easy to communicate with. She made buying our pup so smooth. We would receive updates on how he was doing until it was time for us to pick him up. After we brought Shadow home she would check in to see how he was doing as well. So thankful for her making this process so easy for us, we couldn’t recommend her enough!

Google AI says it’s a puppy mill
Why when I ask if it’s a puppy mill Google AI even says it’s a puppy mill Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, is frequently cited as the "puppy mill capital" of the United States due to its high concentration of large-scale commercial breeding operations. These facilities are characterized by prioritizing profit over animal welfare, often keeping dogs in cramped, unsanitary conditions with minimal veterinary care

We purchased a bichpoo from Mr Miller
We purchased a bichpoo from Mr. Miller the dog had tapeworms. It took a lot of money and time to get rid of them. I believe that these poor puppies are kept in an unsanitary place. I paid full price for him. The puppy is now healthy. I would be aware of purchasing anything for Mr. Allen Miller.
