Look who’s already out there meeting celebrities! 😂🐾✨ Sweet Murphy is living his best life with his new family! His mama Ashley took him along to an event, and somehow this little guy ended up meeting Blonde Supercar. 🏎️✨ I absolutely LOVE getting updates like this and seeing where life takes my babies after they leave me. 🥹🤍 Murphy said new family, new adventures… and apparently new famous friends too. 😂🐶✨ Thank you, Ashley, for letting him be part of all the fun! 🤍

Ellie M.
Thank you so much, Livier, for trusting me and letting me be part of such a sweet surprise! 🥹🤍 Livier stayed with her daughter to make sure she wouldn’t suspect a thing, while her husband and their other daughter came to meet Sushi… and the second they met him, they fell in love! 🥰🐾 Knowing that her daughter has been asking for a puppy for YEARS makes this so much more special. She still has absolutely no idea what her family is planning for her, and I love that everyone is keeping the secret together! 🤭🤫 Thank you, Livier, for choosing Sushi and for letting me be part of something so meaningful for your family. I seriously cannot wait for her to finally meet him and realize he’s HER puppy!! 😭🐶💕

A special thank you to Vanessa for choosing Bvlgari and opening her heart to one of my adult babies! 🤍🐾 Before starting his new chapter, Bvlgari was neutered while still in my care and given plenty of time to recover. Now he’s ready for his big adventure! Next week, my puppy nanny will be flying with him from San Diego all the way to Miami, Florida ✈️🌴 where he’ll finally meet Vanessa and start his new life. Thank you, Vanessa, for trusting me and for choosing him. It means so much to see my adult babies find their perfect people. 🥹🤍 San Diego ✈️ Miami Bvlgari is coming home! 🐾🌴

Ellie M.
A special thank you to Marcia for choosing one of my adult babies and trusting me to help bring him into her family. 🤍 He’s about to have his own little adventure! My puppy nanny will be flying with him and personally meeting Marcia at the airport, where he’ll finally get to meet his new mama. ✈️🐾 Adult dogs deserve their special person too, and it makes me so happy when someone sees beyond the puppy stage and chooses to give one of them a beautiful new chapter. Thank you, Marcia, for choosing him and for trusting me throughout the process. I can’t wait for that airport meeting and to see him in your arms! 🥹🤍

✨ A very special THANK YOU to Dionne & Fifi ✨🐾🤍 Some adoption journeys just feel like they were meant to flow… and this was definitely one of them. From the very beginning, Dionne made the entire process feel SO easy for both of us — almost like we were dancing to the same song. 💃🏻✨ Everything just clicked, and I absolutely loved that. Dionne came to me knowing exactly what she was looking for: the smallest little baby I had available at the moment. 🥹🤏🏻💕 And knowing that she was already an experienced dog mama made me feel even happier and more confident about this match. And then there was little Fifi… 💕 The tiniest girl, with the biggest little presence, finding exactly the mama she was waiting for. There’s something extra special about placing one of my babies with someone who already understands the love, patience, commitment — and tiny-dog attitude 😂 — that comes with being a dog mama. Dionne, thank you for trusting me, for making everything so effortless, and most importantly, for choosing Fifi. 🤍 Seeing her leave with you didn’t feel sad… it felt RIGHT. Like two pieces finding each other exactly when they were supposed to. ✨ Welcome to the family, Dionne! And Fifi… baby girl, you officially found your person. 🥹🐾🎀 These are the matches that make me love what I do even more. 🤍✨

A very special THANK YOU to Ellen and her son! 🤍🐾 They drove all the way from Santa Ana to finally bring sweet Paprika home! 🥹🏡 Ellen requested that Paprika be spayed before going home, so Paprika stayed with me for an additional 3 weeks while I coordinated her surgery and cared for her throughout her recovery. Today, fully recovered and ready for her new chapter, she finally got to leave with her new family! ✨🐶 For families adopting one of my older dogs, this is also an option you can request! If you'd prefer your dog to be spayed/neutered before going home, I can coordinate the procedure and keep them with me during their recovery so they can go home once they're ready. 🤍 Thank you, Ellen, for your patience, your trust, and for making the drive from Santa Ana for Paprika. 🥹💕 It makes me so happy knowing she was worth the wait! Have the BEST life, sweet Paprika! 🎀🐾🏡 I still have two adults dogs ready to go home!!

Ellie M.
I think Gigi made it VERY clear how she feels about her new parents. 😂💕🐾 The second she met Suzzie & Raul she was SO excited — all wiggles, kisses, playing and absolutely zero personal space. 😂🥹 And the way she kept looking up at Raul like, “Sooo… this is my new dad?! 😍” was seriously the cutest thing. She was completely comfortable with them from the beginning, and seeing her little personality come out so quickly made me so happy. 🤍 And I have to say THANK YOU again to Suzzie & Raul because they trusted me enough to place their deposit on Gigi before we had even spoken! 🥹💕 That kind of trust means so much to me, and then getting to watch Gigi be THIS happy and excited when she finally met them made everything even sweeter. I think Gigi already decided… these are MY people. 😂🤍🐾 Welcome to the family, Suzzie & Raul!! I have a feeling this little girl is about to be VERY spoiled. 🥰🎀🏡

Ellie M.
Some families are special from the very beginning… 🥹🤍 A HUGE thank you to Geisy for trusting us with such a special decision. She placed her deposit and chose to trust us before our babies were even born — and today, that trust finally turned into the sweetest moment: Baby Tapioca went home! 🐶🎀🏡 It means so much to have families who believe in us, patiently wait for their little one, follow their journey from the very beginning, and allow us to be part of such an exciting chapter. 🥹✨ Geisy, thank you for your trust, your patience, and for choosing one of our babies to become part of your family. 🤍 Happy Gotcha Day, Tapioca! 🐾💕 Your new adventure officially starts today! ✨🏡 We’re going to miss that little face, but we couldn’t be happier knowing she was so loved before she was even born. 🥹🤍

Ellie is a very caring person about the dogs she breeds. She guided me through the process and is available to answer any questions I might have after taking Chelsea home. We renamed Chelsea to Lola and she is doing very well. Thank you for your support and ongoing guidance.

Working with Ellie was a wonderful experience from start to finish. As a first-time puppy parent, I had a lot of questions, and she was always patient, knowledgeable, and responsive throughout the process. From the moment I met Tulum, I could tell she had been raised with a lot of care and love. Since bringing her home, I have named her Cherry, and she has already become such a special part of my life. She came home healthy, happy, well-socialized, and has been adjusting beautifully. Her first vet visit went great, and the vet was very happy with her overall health and condition. What I appreciated most was the transparency, communication, and continued support even after bringing Cherry home. Ellie genuinely cares about her puppies and their well-being, which gave me a lot of confidence throughout the journey. Cherry has brought so much joy into my life in such a short time, and I am incredibly grateful to Ellie for helping me find my perfect companion. I would highly recommend Ellie to anyone looking for a healthy, well-loved puppy and a breeder who truly stands behind her dogs. Thank you again Ellie for bringing her into my life.

Ellie was an amazing breeder to work with! She answered all million questions that I had immediately. Coffee, who we have named Bailey, is the most precious baby girl! Our family has fallen head over heels in love with her!!

Ellie is so sweet and I really connected with her when initially inquiring about her puppies. It was at random my husband gave me the “go ahead” to look online for a good breeder while out of down in southern CA and she was just wonderful to talk to. Answered all my questions and was patient with me while I tried to work out logistics to get down to her. I was torn between 2 boys (Maui and Malibu) so she offered to bring both. They are both absolute angels, but I chose Maui (now named Murphy). He is such a silly baby and also very snuggly. Did I mention beyond intelligent?! Learns tricks within minutes and is locked in. He is very food motivated and that helps with training. We have an older large dog (Macy) who is such a mama dog to him and his 2yr old brother Archie who is a maltipoo super mutt. Our 1 lb baby fits in so perfectly with our home. Our teenage boys love him, his dog siblings love him and it’s as if he’s always been a part of the pack.

Five stars for Ellie! I brought my Maltipoo puppy, Zeus (Macaron), home recently and couldn't be happier. I can truly tell that Ellie worked with him from day one—crate training has been incredibly simple and easy! He just had his first vet visit and passed all his initial testing with flying colors. Zeus is such a loving, sweet boy who keeps me entertained chasing my feet around. I am so excited to watch him grow and highly recommend Ellie to anyone looking for a wonderful, dedicated breeder! This was my first pet experience and I couldn't be happier. Thank you so much for allowing me to provide a home to this little man!

We named her Honey. The first night my daughter and I took turns staying up with her. Last night she slept 4 hours straight and we got some sleep. She woke up full of energy running around, playing and jumping like a crazy woman! She is happy and loves playing, barking, and racing around! Thank you so much for raising such healthy happy puppies!🐶
