I had a wonderful experience adopting a 16 week old female Havapoo from River View Puppies. Nathan met me at the Cedar Rapids airport and the hand over and trip home was so straightforward. My puppy slept the whole way. Our sweet little girl is now the light our life! She is happy and healthy! If we ever consider another puppy, I will definitely work with this breeder!

Working with Nathan was 5 star ⭐️ From the moment we FaceTimed to discuss what we were looking for/meeting the puppies, correspondence afterwards, to flying to Iowa for my airport delivery! The whole process was seamless which made our new addition feel “right” after losing our other dog 5 months earlier. We are in love with our smart, adorable, sweet havapoo and thankful we found River View Puppies!

Nathan was great to work with. He was very prompt with his communications. He was very calm and reassuring with my many questions. The puppy’s area was very clean and odor free. I could tell the puppy had been socialized with the whole family as she was very content and happy.
