Hello my name is Meredith Amyot this past August my family brought a Havanese from Teapup, his original name was Benji but we renamed him Nugget.   We all love him so much and couldn't be happier!  I also have attached a picture of Nugget.

Happy New year from Kobylarz family!
Candance, we got from you guys in August, is doing very well. She is now very smart and happy girl. Like you said she's not very big,but just perfect for us. Kids love her so much, and we do, too. Kobi , because that is her name now, loves us very much also. I think because she thinks she is not a small dog, she does good job guarding us. Surprisingly she has great, big voice, which she doesn't use too often! Kobi is house trained so far, but she is sitting, giving paw, comes and stays in place on command. Potty training she mastered long time ago, of course. Here are some pictures, so you guys have an idea about her life with us. Thanks a lot for such great family pet!

Hello Beers Family and Amber!

 

I wanted to give you a quick update on our Malshi puppy Lexie (tagged Kelsey).  Lexie just turned 1 year old last week and is doing great!  She is so smart and so much fun.  She is great with kids and loves to play with other dogs.

 

Ohh, and litter box training was incredibly easy to do!  We are so thankful we made that decision on days like today when it’s only a high of 22 degrees out! We would probably lose her in all the snow! ;)

 

I have attached some recent pictures of Lexie.   Also, this is a YouTube video of Lexie from last week, she was terrified of her new water bowl because it made “bubble” noises:   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oy1J6AT3WR0

          

Thank you so much, please keep up the great work! (Still hoping to talk my husband into getting another puppy from you in the future!) 

 

Kind Regards,

Kelly, Scott & Lexie

Hi Everyone at Teapup,
I wanted to send you some pictures of Chelsea (aka Desiree).  She is the sweetest little girl.  This is our third Yorkie and she is by far the best one we have had.  She is so well socialized and just loves everyone and all animals.  I really have to keep a close eye on her because she wants to play with every animal she sees.  She also watches Animal Planet.  She goes everywhere with us and even made a trip to Purdue to watch our son in the band.  She was good as gold and is already trained to used puppy pads so she doesn't need to go outside.   She just couldn't be any better.  I'll update you with pictures in the future.  I am so happy with her. Thanks so much.

Hello Amber and staff,
 
   We just wanted to update you on Brandy, the Havanese puppy we bought in July. We have renamed her Lexi. Lexi is the light in our eyes! She is well-loved by everyone who meets her. Lexi has a wonderful personality! She is smart, curious, playful and so lovable. Lexi knows many commands and does well with potty training. She is great with all adults, kids and other dogs. We couldn't have asked for a better dog!

    

 
Thanks for everything,
Jessica Nendza & Gregory Uebel

 

 
Dear Amber, Dan & Deb,
 
Just wanted to give you an update on (Kenyon) now "Cidney Ellingsworth" - He will be a year old on Dec. 21st and we love him dearly!  You were right - he loves to give kisses to everyone.  Cidney is so friendly and loving and loves to travel with us in our motor home.  Everybody that sees him wants to know about him.  We recommend Teapup to everyone.  For some reason his potty training is this:  "take me out for a brief walk in the morning after breakfast and a brief walk in the evening after dinner - and I am good to go!"  No mishaps!!!   He loves to carry his little ceramic food bowl around after his meals.  Cidney is everything and more that you claimed he would be.  We are so delighted.  Thank you all and please thank his mommy, Katie and his daddy, Dancer.  They did a great job!  Hugs to you all,

Thank you guys for everything! She is incredible!!  Great job, you can tell she has had a lot of love and attention thus far in her little life.

Emma and I have bonded already and we are going to have a very wonderful life together. 
I can't thank you enough. I will and already have recommended you without hesitation.

Hi this is Rachel Webb and we bought a schnorkie pup from you. He was born Aug 26, 2008 and was out of Frankie and Cherie. His kennel name was Chaplain but we have named him remington Remi for short. I wanted to let you know that he is absolutely wonderful! We live in New Paris and I have wanted to bring him to visit however he does not do well in the car, gets sick so getting him to the groomer and the vet for regular checks is as far as we push it. But he is perfect for our family. He weighs only 11 pounds and is very well behaved. I don't know if you remeber or not but we have had problems in the past with puppies that we have gotten becoming aggressive and not so pleasant to our children, but he is not at all like that , he loves the kids and they love him. Keep up the good work! 
A very happy family with a perfect little Remi :) Thanks again!

Hello Deb, and Amber,
 
My Mom Judy Weber just called me and let me know that she talked with you. She also said you remembered us getting "Cami" who we lovingly call Lacie now. I wanted to send this picture so you can see that she has a sister that has been with us since we have had Lacie. She is the one with the jacket on. Her name is Mickey and she will turn 14 on the 24th of this month. Then the middle one there is her brother named Buddy. He came to us at 3 in the morning on the 24th of June 2008. We think he is a Westie mix but not for sure. Needless to say him and Lacie play all the time and are buddies, no pun attended. Lacie is the sweetest little girl. They are all spoiled and they all have their special tweaks about them. We take all of them walking everyday, and they are loved constantly. I would like to share something really dear and special to me about Lacie :
 
   I was having a bad day and I went up to my room and I was praying. I was crying and had my hands folded and my head bowed. As I was praying Lacie came up on the bed and she laid flat on the bed by me and took her front paws crossed them and placed them on my folded hands and put her head down. It was the most dearest, sweetest, memorable moment for me. I new God was with me when she was there. I am welling up with tears now as I think about this and type you this email.
 

                

                            
 
Blessings to all of you and much Thanks,
 
 

 

 
 Hi there,   Just wanted to give you all up there an update on Petunia/ Piper the Coton de Tulear  my husband and I bought from you in July!!  I have attached a recent pix of her for you to see.   We renamed her Piper .  
 
She is such a WONDERFUL puppy ....she was very quick to learn the housebreaking ....about 2wks to be exact.   She is and has been sleeping thru the night since we brought her home the end of July.  She seems to really wanna please.....so far there really haven't been any struggles at all with her.   She has brought  us a lot of joy and rolling laughter at her antics in the house.   She is quite a character.
  

                                       

  Again, Piper has been a wonderful addition to our family and we are grateful to have found you. We can tell by what a great dog she is that she was loved and cared for by you!!    Thanks again!

Amber, I've got to thank you.  We purchased a little yorkie (sparkle) from you a little less than a year ago.  Penelope has made such a difference in our lives.  We love her so much.  She is such a sweet thing!  She will nap with you, plays with our three children and rarely causes any trouble.  She brings so much joy to our lives.  Thank you so much, you are so helpful and kind.

ps. thinking we need to get her a friend! will be back soon!

Amber,

I just want to thank you for our precious little Natasha (the kids wanted to keep her name).  She is awesome.  The kids adore her and I have to say she is pretty spoiled already.  She has been sitting in the chair with our youngest all morning.  We took her with us Saturday to the pet store to get all her “goodies” and my husband even let them buy her a little shirt!  We bought her a bed and put it in the cart and she just sat right up on her back legs and looked around.  It was so cute.  The kids were so excited that she could go with us to the store.  She did great in the car and we took her with us on a pontoon ride yesterday and she was fine with that too.  She loves running after the kids outside…and we love that she does not chew so we did not have to do much house proofing which was such an easy transition to bring her home.  She is just so cute.  She follows us around everywhere we go.  She was in her bed in the living room and as soon as the kids went to the breakfast nook she got out of her bed and followed them and then went to her blanket out there.  It is so cute how she follows them around.

                               

Thank you again for everything.  She is the perfect fit for us..the kids could not be happier!  I have attached a few pictures of her in her new forever home!  Have a great week.

Hi Amber and Staff...
 
On May 16th, Tom and I came in and looked at puppies and fell in love with 9 month old Jasper, the Maltese (whose name has NOT changed)...and quickly took him home with us.  Because he was older, he seemed to be a little harder to train...to go potty where he should and to do "tricks".  But, he was just the BEST dog...so much so that 3 weeks later, we drove back to Indiana (an over 3 hour drive) to select a "brother" for Jasper.
 
After the "meet and greet" between Jasper, Tom and I and several puppies, I decided that "Squirt", the Hava-Shu (now called Benny) would be the best MATCH for all of us...and indeed he has been.  He was only 11 weeks old the day he came home with us.  That was June 6th.
 
At 9 months of age, when Jasper became part of our family, he weighed 5# 2oz and now weighs 7# 3oz.  Jasper is now ALL house-broken and knows how to roll over and "shake" hands...and the general commands of sit, come, stay and heel.  Jasper had all of his adult teeth when he came to us and has since been neutered.
 
At 11 weeks of age, Benny (formerly "Squirt") weighed 5#.  Now...at 19 weeks of age, Benny tips the scales at 8# 5oz.  The vet has said he could easily reach 11-14# fully grown.  Benny LOVES to show off, by sitting, then laying down, then rolling over and jumping up on all 4 to give me "FIVE"!!!  He knows all of the general commands as well.  Benny has been losing his BABY teeth and getting his grown-up teeth and will be neutered in October.
 
Both Jasper and Benny have been crate-trained and love their (crate) "BED"!  We've gotten a larger crate, because they have ALWAYS slept together...right from the first night Benny was here with us.  I think they'd be "lost" without one another.  They do everything together...including keeping us laughing at their antics.
 
Jasper is a little more reserved, quiet and laid-back and Benny is energetic, enthusiastic, goofy...and quite the watchdog, too! 
 
Jasper and Benny are 2 of the best puppies we could have ever selected.  I don't think we would have EVER found any 2 dogs better suited to our lifestyle and to us and each other.
 
You were very helpful and patient in allowing us to spend time with several puppies BOTH times we were there.  We have told EVERYONE about you...in case they ever decide they want a puppy too.
 
I've ATTACHED a few photos of Jasper and Benny...the first 2 from your website when we first saw them...and then one that I took just the other day!

                 

 
Sincerely,
Jan & Tom Tanis

Hi, Deb, Amber, and Martha:
 
I haven't written in quite a while, but thought I would just send a short note to let you know about our Brandee - your Celia (1-21-08).  She is the light of our lives and the spark our house adores. 
 
We cannot tell you how much fun she is and how much love she gives us.  Oh, she is so mischievous, but in such a cute way.  She's all mixed up, however, because when she does something wrong, my husband will correct her.  I, on the other hand, pick her up and give her loving.  I shower her with hugs and kisses.  My Mom (95 yrs. young) says she's not right.  We all have a good laugh over her words. 
 
Brandee loves to ride in the car.  We take her everywhere and always, always, always, do the people in cars next to us want me to put down the window so they can better see her.  She is absolutely beautiful.  She's a Yorkichon.  Her coloring is gorgeous and her personality is priceless.
 
I have told many of our friends about your facility.  They have assured me when they're ready to bring a new puppy in their homes, they will look no farther than your website.  Thank you again for breeding such wonderful, wonderful companions.  I cannot put into words how much we love our little one.  We've had her for over 1 1/2 years now, and our love for her just continues to grow.  She is most definitely an intricate part of our family.

Hi Amber,
  Just wanted to update you on Gretta. We have since renamed her BeeBee. She is doing well and seems to be adjusting to her new home just fine. We take her everywhere and everyone just loves her and compliments what a beautiful dog she is. Thanks for all of your help and we will refer anyone looking for a new addition to their family. I have attached some pictures of her.

 Shih Tzu out of Georgie and Ricter

 

 

Hi! First of all, it was nice meeting you today, and also I wanted to update you on Parker. :) We probably will rename him "Yoshi" like the little Nintendo creature. It seems to fit! Anyway, he had a nice trip home (see attached)! We made a great choice w/ him. He was very calm. Not sure if that was nerves or what, but we had him on his fuzzy crate pad up front w/ us the whole time and he napped a bit, enjoyed the trip the rest. We stopped a few times for a walk and drink, and he went to the bathroom so that was a relief. Now we're home and he seems happy (and one more of the attached photos). He had an accident in the house when we got here, but he went outside twice already to much fanfare! :) He had dinner when we got home, played a bit (his elephant from your farm and a knot that we got him are the favorites), gave him his Albon (which he took well!), and now he's snoozing on the rug. Since being here he's whimpered a bit here and there, but nothing ongoing so I think we're okay! I'll be sure to keep you posted as he moves forward and I upload pics. He's such a happy little guy so thank you and the rest of the crew for that! :) And thank you for everything today, too! I'm really glad that your place was recommended to us and we were able to find the little guy. I'm sure it's never easy parting w/ these pups (though we left w/ him, I would have loved to take them all, so cute), but he's in good hands and getting a lot of love already. :) My parents are excited to meet him soon too because they miss our Shih Tzu that we had as kids and this little guy looks a lot like Oscar did as a puppy. :)

               

                              
 


Enjoy the rest of your week and I will keep you updated on his progress!

Thank you for everything!
Jenny, Brian, and Yoshi

Shih Tzu out of Pebbles and Rambo

 

 

Just wanted to share some pics of Peony and Presley/Daisy and Cash. They are both doing well and potty training is coming along pretty good. Daisy is an absolute sweet heart and has won over my husband for sure. Cash has a mind of his own and loves to explore without reservation, he is fast to say the least but also loving but on his terms. The pics are mostly of the puppies but my kids are in a few of them the 4 year old Isabelle loves Daisy and claims her as hers, I think it is because Daisy lets her pick her up more often and Brooke is the 12 year old and Nolan 9, they are in a picture holding the pups in front of our house.  The kids are even doing well helping train them.  We are so happy with them both, they bring us lots of joy and are so much fun
watching them togeter.  They snuggle up to one another all the time, mostly Cash cannot be without Daisy, he has to lay on her all the time, it is very cute.
 

                             

Thank you so much.  Have a great summer!

Dear Beers Family and Amber,

 I just wanted to give you an update on our Malshi puppy Lexie (tagged Kelsey). She is doing great and is now 7 months old and 7 pounds. She is so full of energy and so much fun! She is curious about everything and incredibly smart!  I cannot take her for a walk without people stopping me to tell me she is the cutest puppy they have ever seen! She just loves the attention, she is a complete ham! Two of our neighbors are already planning a trip to Indiana to come purchase one of your puppies.  We can’t imagine our lives without her. And maybe, just maybe I’ll be able to talk my husband into getting another from you guys in the future.  :)

 I’ve attached some baby puppy pictures as well as some recent ones. :)  

                       

Thanks again and keep up the good work!!

Hi Amber, Just wanted to share a few pictures of Susie (sorry about the poor quality but I'm a terrible picture taker). Some pictures were taken at home and some were taken at our lakehouse. Susie and Demsey (our sons english bulldog) get along just great. She's doing great and the whole family just loves her, especially my two granddaughters. Our vet suggested that we wait until the the end of August or beginning of September to spay her to give her more time to become acquainted with her new home. I hope you enjoy the pictures.

Hi Amber,
   
   I wanted to give you an update on my lil girl I had received from you guys in October.  My boyfriend purchased June Bug, a Mal-Shi, for me as a birthday gift and might I add she is the best birthday gift I could have ever asked for.  She has such a great personality and so loving. She loves to be outside now that it is warm. She has recently started this new thing where she runs from me when i try to bring her in lol. She would play outside all day if she could.  She also loves to sit in the window and watch cars go buy, it is the cutest thing.  June Bug goes just about everywhere with me but when she can't i can always count on her waiting in the window for me when I pull in the driveway.  Everyday, she looks forward to playing fetch. So of course she is extremely spoiled and has a huge basket full of toys.  We can't thank you enough for giving us such a wonderful bundle of joyoy. She always puts a smile on our faces.
 
    I'm working on trying to get another puppy this year for my birthday from you all:) 
 
Thanks Again,
    
    Kaleigh, Andrew, and June Bug
 
 

Dear Beers family and Amber,
 
I finally have a chance to sit down and write out this letter. My husband and I purchased "Candace", a Mini Schnauzer, from your family about a week after we closed on our first home. We have since renamed her Leila and she is such a little joy!! I've never had a puppy before little Leila and I've never gotten to see the personalities of a dog develop and our "little girl" has just a ton of it. We've been told by her vets, groomer and plenty of others that she is just a little love bug and a wonderful dog. We would like to thank you all for giving us such a gift in this little dog. I have some pictures attached for you to see. Thanks very much once again!!

Hi Deb and Amber, just wanted to update you on Chico f/k/a Rex. 
 
He's been with us a little over 4 months, and I cannot imagine life without him.  He loves to play at the local dog park with his furry friends, and I've attached a picture of how happy he actually is.  Look at that face! 
 
This little man has completely melted my heart, and my fiance's.  He is the most loveable little guy I've ever had.  He's a smart boy too, has a wonderful personality, and is so loving.  The only thing he's not is a late sleeper - he's such an early bird, which is okay during work days, but I'm lucky if he's asleep still at 7:30 a.m. on weekends! LOL..

                                                               

 
Thanks so much and if I'm ever in the market for another Tzu, I'll definitely contact you.

Hi Amber and Beers!

 
My husband Josh, and I purchased "Dex" a westie from you about 3 1/2 weeks ago. I just wanted to tell you how happy we are with him!!!
 
We've since renamed him to "Crush" he so funny, and adorable, and I am sorry I couldn't get back to you sooner, we were busy potty training :)
 
He is so smart, and he has a great personality. We had him checked out by our local vet, and they were so pleased to tell us he is in perfect health (although we didn't expect less).
 
He loves to sleep in, he likes the wind because it blows leaves and he loves to chase them! He's grown so much, so I attached some pictures, the most recent at the end of the email. 
 
This last weekend he was out and about with us, and met our parents Westie and they got along sooooo well!!! He of course was a little ball of wild-and-crazy-ness but they had fun. 
 
The day after we got him, he was so cute, he couldn't go up and down the stairs in our home. We live in a condo, that is 3 stories, so he's quickly learned and just last week learned to go down the stairs - he even skips a few now :)
 
We are absolutely pleased and just wanted to send you an update. 

                              

                                                     


 
All the best,

Hi Amber,

 Hope you are doing well.  Just wanted to let you know Esther (aka – Brooklyn) is doing extremely well!  One more ounce and she will weigh 2 pounds!  She is so happy and playful.  She is already sleeping with me and gets up on her own to go to the potty.  She teases my cat relentlessly.  I am so happy that I found you guys on line.  You do such a wonderful job there that by the time I got Esther she was so well adjusted and with no hang-ups (i.e., noise, people, other animals) that my job has been very easy.

                                               

Thanks again for everything you do.

 

Sincerely,

Hi Deb and Amber,

Here are some pics of our precious "Coco" (short for Coconut, Cocopuff, etc.)  She is such a doll! 

Since the moment we picked her up at the Portland airport, she has acted like part of the family!  She is beautiful and loving and SMART!  She was obviously very well socialized at Teapup.  We love her! 

She is having a lot of fun with her new dog family too - our corgis are doing great with her! Thank you for being so good to work with.  We hope to send a lot of future Malshi owners your way!

Couldn't Have Asked For Better!

Dear Deb, Martha, and Amber,

 
I can't begin to tell you how happy we are with our Tuggles (formerly Boston).  We've had him in our lives since last October and he has given us so much joy that it is hard to imagine life without him.  He has so much personality and is so friendly, just as you described.  When my vet's office commented on his good nature and his calmness while being checked, they were not surprise that I got them from you.  I understand they are lucky enough to have several of your pups as patients and they have been impressed with all of them.
 
Tuggles went to work with me everyday and was the office dog, so he has many people that dearly love him.  He did very well with my team and all of he people who came through our area to see him.  He is such a social little guy.  I took him to obedience class and he is doing extremely well there also.
 
I just don't know how I could have asked for anything more in a companion than Tuggles willingly provides!  He is as close to perfect as you can get - he's such a cutie!

                                                              

 
Thanks again, and I would recommend your puppies to anyone.

 Outstanding Addition!

Amber,

 

I just wanted to check in and let you know that little Sebastian (our children renamed him “Jake”) is an exceptional puppy. He is gentle and alert and fits in and loves to be with each one of us. He is a quick study and is almost fully housebroken, rarely chews and seldom barks. He loves to play, take walks and car rides and wants to be with us wherever we are. He is sleeping in my office and at my feet as I write this. I don’t think we could have found a better dog for our family. We all thank you and the Beers for making this outstanding addition to our family possible.

 

Best regards,

Ed Naber

Truly Blessed!!

Hi Amber, I know it has been awhile since I have contacted you, but I wanted to send some updated pictures of Faith, from Yoda & McKenzie. I still am so blessed that I saw you guys on line and picked out this princess.... I know you hear this all the time but she is sooooo amazing. There has not been a day that has gone by without her making us laugh or smile, her personality is priceless- her nick name is silly monkey I have never had a dog that jumps as much as she does or give as many kisses she is full of those "EVERYDAY". She will be 2 in    October and is a very healthy girl & weighs 13 lbs. Spoiled is the only word to describe her she is the center of attention. I thank god everyday for having her in my life and will always be "GRATEFUL" to all of you for your help in getting her in my life. What can I say I am truly blessed when it comes to "FAITH", she is my everything-words just can't describe how much I love her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 
I also hope her brother Moffitt is doing just as good, I think of him often.

Funny and Sweet!

Hi Amber!  I just wanted to send you a quick note and picture of Riley, who is now almost 9 months old.  We brought him home on July 19, 2008 - when he was just 8 weeks old.  We just love him so much - he has been a wonderful addition to our family.  He is funny, sweet, and just plain adorable!  I have had so many people stop me on the street and inquire as to where I got him and I have given all of them your website address.  The next time I am in the market for a puppy, I will be sure to come back and see you!

  Very Satisfied Customers!!

Hello there!  We had been meaning to do this for a while, but never seemed to get around to it.  It’s been just over a year since we welcomed one of your babies into our family, and we just wanted to let you know how happy we are with him.  We knew we wanted a Shih Tzu, and when we found you, you had just what we were looking for.  Little did we know at the time, but the puppy we brought home could not have been more perfect for us!  He was extremely easy to train, both with housetraining and commands. 

He was Gilligan to you, and he has since been re-named Roby (pronounced “robe-ee”) by us.  He is the absolute center of our lives.  We never get bored any more, because he has so much personality that he never seems to get tired of entertaining us.  Just to watch him play with his toys brings us so much joy.  He’s also proven to be very clever, sometimes too clever for his own good.  His new favorite game, which he just recently invented, is to put one of his tennis balls in my shoes, so that he has an excuse to try and get it out (and chew on my shoes in the process!).  My husband and I were both sick a lot this winter, and he was completely content to just lay with us on the couch and provide us with warmth and comfort. 

I could keep going on and on about all the funny and sweet things that he does, but that would take all day.  We just wanted you to know that we are very satisfied customers!

Thanks again,

So Sweet and Playful!

Amber,

I just wanted to send a note to let you know how much we enjoy our shih tzu Larkspur.  Her personality was just as you described.  She is so sweet and playful.  She was housebroken within about a week and she has always done really well in the house.  Our daughter adores her.  We recommend you to all our friends who ask about Larkspur.

                         
        

 

Thanks again,

So Much Personality!

 Hello!!  I meant to do this a long time ago, but I decided to check out your website again to see what cute puppies you had. I got Bella (named Tess on her tag when I got her) Nov.3,2007 (born Sep.3 2007) and I can't tell you how much my husband and I LOVE her! She is a Schnorkie and full of so much personality. She loves snuggling up with us and sleeping with us at night. She REALLY enjoys this snow. I just wanted to let you guys know how much I appreciate you breeding such a wonderful dog! Here are a few pictures of her! Enjoy :)

Absolutely In Love!!

I just wanted to let you know how much we love Juliette (kept the name just changed the spelling)!  I took her to the vet and he was extremely impressed with how she had been handled at the breeders!  Today I took her to a "puppy party" that our vet holds each Saturday, and although she was the smallest and least aggressive one there, she played with all the other pups
wonderfully.  It seemed they all new she was smaller than them and so they were a bit more gentle with her than they were with each other. 
  We are absolutely in love with her, and our 12 year old Yorkie Pom cross is really starting to enjoy the friendship.  They really get along great!  I would recommend your puppies to anyone and everyone!

     Highly Recommended!!

Good morning Deb, Dan and Amber,

I wanted to email that Carson had his vet appointment yesterday and checked out perfect! Our vet was very impressed with Carson's calm nature, as was the groomer. Carson is a wonderful little guy-so full of energy (he gets these spurts and runs all through the house) yet LOVES to be held and cuddled! He and our Boston Terrier (Tux) are good 
buddies. It is funny to see how protective he is of the sidewalk in front of our home! Carson has a great personality-I could not be happier! Thank you very much for everything! You and your puppies will be highly 
recommended.

                                                                  
Merry Christmas!

  Excellent Breeding!!

  Dear Amber and Everyone at Teapup:

 
Merry Christmas!!
 
It has now been about 7 weeks since we picked up our little Fern (now called Zoe, as she was renamed by our grandchildren).  We can't tell you how much we love her and what a joy she has been for all of us.
 
Zoe's vet check was completely perfect ... no problems what so ever.  She's been a healthy and happy little pup.
 
And besides being a beautiful little girl, she's just as sweet as she can be.  She's a lover and a cuddler.  She's my husband's little shadow.  She always wants to be wherever we are.  And she's so smart.  She is doing great with her potty training.
 
We want to thank you for your excellent breeding and socializing of your puppies.  We just couldn't ask for more!!  Our visit to your kennel was a great experience; you were so helpful.  All of our questions and concerns were answered.  We definitely would recommend anyone looking for a beautiful, healthy, loving companion to look at www.teapup.com!!  We're so happy we did!

                                                                 

 
Warmest regards,

  He is Perfect!!

Dear Deb and staff at Tea Pups,,

Just want to share with you an update on Paddington. He came to our home on September 15th and has been the best pet addition to our household ever. He is the most intelligent dog we have ever seen and keeps us laughing with his creative antics.
 
I put a small mirror by the door and the first thing he did was look in the mirror, paw at it and bark as if he wanted the pup he saw to play with him. Now he just goes and looks at himself. He also watches TV and the computer. He learned very quickly the words stay, come, go get it, hungry? (he licks when we ask him if he's hungry and even brings us a paper plate we keep down for his snacks). He is perfect in every way and we are having a ball with him. Thank you for providing the care and love in raising such intelligent and adorable dogs.
 
I noticed on your web site that his sister Perdita has gone to her new home and wondered if you might be able to contact her family and give them my e-mail address so that we can correspond with them if they wish. That way if I hear from them I will respond and if I don't I will know that they are not interested. It would just be fun to share stories about the two siblings.

                                             

 
Thanks again and may God continue to bless you all.

Maltese out of Pride and Jazzy

 

 
     Hi!

We bought our little "Izzie" (formerly known as Lavender) in April from Deb and we could not be happier!  Izzie is a Morkie who has pretty much topped out at 6 1/2 pounds but what she lacks in size she MORE than makes up for in personality.  She is the happiest and most well-adjusted puppy we have ever had!  Izzie has slept through the night since the very first day we bought her home, she gets along supremely well with our other dog (a twelve year old Maltese), she is "top dog" in her obedience class, and she LOVES doing tricks and being the center of attention.  Izzie loves riding in the car and going to the dog park, where she makes friends with dogs 20 times her size! The next time we are in the market for a puppy, you had better believe we will be visiting Deb again!

  We Just Love Him!!!

 Hi Amber! Just wanted you to know he is doing great! We did name the little guy "Tug how that goes. The last photo is of Zoe wanting to play with him and they both were in the same position facing each other, but I only got her in the pic. She really likes him - a little scared of him sometimes if he chases her, but they said she might do that. I know as he gets bigger they are going to really love playing together! She's just a little freaked out I think cause he is so little!!  He's  got a great personality - loves to play, cuddles when you pick him up... he even perked his head up and tilted it when we call him "Tug" and comes to you. We just love him and he seems to really love his new family!!! I can tell he is very well bred! Thanks again!

     She is So Precious!!

We picked Pebbles (Effie) up in Seattle in August.  She is a precious little doll!  My family and friends all love her.  She is so playful and loves to give kisses.  Her and our other Shih Tzu, Rocco, have so much fun together.  They were best buddies from the very first day. Thank you so much for such an easy and fun transaction. You were all very helpful and nice to work with.  We will definitely go through you again if we decide to get another.  Thanks again!

 Well Worth It!!  

Hi Amber,
Wicky is doing so well!!
We are following the instructions with the crate and he is really done very well. I put him in the crate during the day to get a feel for how he would deal with it. I timed it and he cried for ONE minute then was silent! He amazed me with that! Then at bed time the same thing...only one minute and he was asleep (I know its only been 2 days but I have heard its supposed to be much harder than this! ) We actually had to wake him up at 6:30 am yesterday, he was still sleeping.
We leave the crate open during the day and he goes in and out of it to get his toys, so I think he likes the crate so far.
His personality is just like you said, very playful and happy and he just loves the kids.
He also does very well in the car, he is very relaxed. My husband was mowing the lawn and Wicky had absolutely no fear of the loud noise.
He was well worth the wait and we feel very blessed to have him with us.
We have all fallen in love with the little guy.
Thanks so much for everything!
I will keep you posted on his progress.
We plan to get him together with Kirby on Tues or Wed. that should be so cute.
take care

  Such A Wonderful Companion!!

Just a short update on our wonderful, funny, happy, and oh so lovable, Yorkichon.  She was your Celia born January 21, 2008.  She is now our Brandee.  It was instant love when we came to get her in April, and that love continues to grow more intent every day.  Brandee came into our lives after we lost our Yorkie.  She is what the doctor ordered and more.

 
Thank you for breeding such wonderful companions.  Our vet was in awe when he examined her.  He knew immediately this dog was well cared for at your facility.  He was very impressed with her shot record and commented that she was better immunized than 99% of the dogs he sees initially. 
 
I cannot put into words the feelings I have for all of you.  Martha was the person who helped us at the kennel.  She was very knowledgeable and so kind to us.  She answered all of our questions and handled the dogs so very lovingly.  The staff you have truly does love each and every one of your puppies. 
 
Know that Brandee has a good home that is filled with lots of special love for her.  She is definitely very spoiled, but I don't care.  She's an intricate part of our family and I thank God for her and for you.  Please keep up the good work.  My husband wants to take a ride to your facility one day with her so she can see her parents again.  She loves to ride, so we may just do that.

  Simply Amazing!

Dear Amber, Deb and Dan;
 
 OMG is all we can say... Kirby is simply amazing...from the minute we picked him up at Bradley Airport it was just absolute love and continues to get better. He is just as good as he is gorgeous! In ten days he is just about house trained. He just loves children, dogs, elderly...he just exudes personality and brings smiles to stranger's faces.
 
 I took him for his first visit to the vet yesterday and everyone who works there was begging to hold him. The vet said that he was in perfect health and couldn't get over how calm he was. He is a big ol' ball of energy and can play and play and play.
 
 We just couldn't be happier than we are with the newest member of our family. I know we are going to enjoy many years of love and friendship with our Kirby.(we even kept the name that you chose for him because it just fit him perfectly!)
 
I'll send some pictures shortly...     
 
Thank you SO much,

Our New Shih-Poo!!

 Hi Amber!! Another update on Zoe: She went to the vet today for her first shot & she gained 6oz in a week!! She is doing terrific!! She's eating, constantly playing & she is doing great with housebreaking, she barely has any accidents. Here are some pictures of her with the family.

 September 19, 2008           

We picked up our beautiful 9 week old Shih Poo "Lotus" (we have named her Zoe) at the airport yesterday (9/9/08). As soon as I took her out of her carrier she was wagging her tail & licking my face. She is the most beautiful puppy we have ever seen, even better than in the pictures we were sent.
 
Amber was terrific to deal with, she was always quick to answer my questions & to get everything squared away for Zoe's trip home. As soon as we got Zoe into the house it felt like she had always been here. Our kids adore her & even our Bulldog & our cat think she's pretty cool.
 
We took Zoe out to lunch with us today & I can't tell you how many people stopped us to comment on how gorgeous she is. We are thrilled with our little fur baby!! She has her first vet appointment on Friday & I have no doubt that she is perfectly healthy. She is eating & drinking & starting to get the hang of making outside. She wasn't too happy with the crate last night, she cried & ended up sleeping curled up in my arms in bed. However, today we worked on getting her more comfortable in the crate & after a few minutes of whimpering she curled up & went to sleep.
 
Thank you so much for all the work you put into breeding these beautiful puppies. We look forward to enjoying Zoe as she grows

 What a Beautiful Little Girl!

Dear Deb and Amber, 

What a beautiful little girl my Lindsey (aka Lindy) is; she almost doesn’t look real, a perfect little angel. She is every bit as amazing as her picture and what a sweetie pie; I knew when I saw her she was meant to be mine. Her flight got in a little early, but by the time they got her over to the cargo area it was 5:30 and we were there waiting for her. She seemed very calm and totally undaunted by her long journey and ready to give lots of kisses. I took her out of the crate right away and offered her some water and let her go potty before we started our hour drive back home.

Once home I took her outside to potty again, softened some of the food you sent, warmed it a bit in the microwave and she ate every bit. She played for a while with both me and my son and then went to sleep on my lap. I kept her up until around 10:00 (our normal bed time) and put a clean towel in her crate and set it next to my bed. When she gets a little bigger and settled in she will sleep in the bed with me. She only woke up twice during the night, both times I took her out to go potty offered her some water and she went right back to sleep.

Thank you again so very much for working with me to get her paid for and sending her to us. We love her already and couldn’t be more pleased with how cute, active and healthy she is; she is truly a blessing. I have a Vet appointment for her on Friday (just a “new puppy check up”) I’m sure he will not find a thing wrong, but I know it is important to have her checked out. I will keep you posted on her and send pictures with her new family. God bless you all for the love and care you give these little dogs and the blessing they become to so many people.

Our Wonderful Puppies!

Hi Amber,

Just a short note to let you know how our puppies are doing.  We purchased our little white coton de tulear (Satin) whom we have since named Angel in August.  She handled the car ride home in great style.  She slept the whole 2 1/2 hours.  When we arrived home she adapted quickly and made herself right at home.  She is a little doll.  And she is getting spoiled tremendously.

Then we contacted you and said we were interested in a Shih Tzu.  You helped us pick one of the little guys we had seen on line. We picked Murphy.  He is just wonderful.  And when we took him to the vet he said he was a wonderful specimen of the breed.  He even showed me his mouth with the perfect bite on his teeth.  He said you do not find that much these days.  He inquired about where he came from.  He wrote down your information and contact numbers so he could pass information along if someone is looking for a wonderful companion.  Our little guy is visiting a nursing home and is around people with Alzheimers.  The patients really relate to animals.  My Mother is in the facility and looks forward to his visits also.  He just loves laps and being petted by everyone.

Again thank you all for breeding such wonderful puppies.  I can not tell people enough good things about your facility.  Please keep up the good work so others can purchase such great little companions.

Thanks So Much!

I know that Ben has already emailed you about Greta's arrival home, but I wanted to share an update.  Greta is so well socialized that it is a joy taking her places - people always want to meet her, and she has been great about it.  She adapted immediately to life with two young children, and fits in with our family amazingly well.

    We just took Greta in for her initial check-up today, and the vet was incredibly impressed.  She kept raving about what excellent condition Greta was in, and could not believe how well cared for she had been before we got her.  When we showed Dr. H the packet of information that we got from you folks, and she checked out Greta's shot record, she was even more impressed. 
    Dr. H told us that she has had several clients who got puppies over the Internet, and discovered when the puppy arrived that it had a medical condition that had not been disclosed to them.  One poor puppy had a congenital heart defect, and the breeder claimed that they were not responsible for that.  Thankfully Greta doesn't have any problems like that, but it's reassuring to know that if she did, you folks stand behind your breeding practices.
    We gave Dr. H your contact information, and she was going to check out your web site.  She said it was wonderful that you are such conscientious breeders!  I have a feeling that you may be getting a few referrals - when not only the owners but also the vet are impressed with a puppy, that speaks volumes about the caliber of your facility.  Thanks so much!

  Could Not Have Been Better!

      Good Evening,

   I just wanted to drop you a note to update you on the 
short-haired Havanese puppy that we purchased from your facility.  Firstly, I would like to say that our interaction with Teapup could not have been better.  Your staff were wonderfully informative and took time with us to answer all of our questions.  It was obvious from our tour of your kennels that all of the dogs are well cared for and loved.  We were very pleased with Teapup and would recommend anyone wanting to purchase a smaller dog to come to Teapup. 

   Secondly, the dog we purchased was a short-haired Havanese that our daughter named Buttercup.  Buttercup is five months old and she is a very playful and inquisitive dog.  She is about 2.5 lbs.  but she struts around like she is a Doberman.  Buttercup was a runt of the litter but she is loaded with self confidence.  When we brought Buttercup home we were a little worried that she would be intimidated by her new surroundings but within a day, she was walking around our house like she owned the place.  We have a cat named Tybalt who likes to look out for Butter cup. Whenever we go for a walk around the neighborhood
with Buttercup, Tybalt follows.  He did not do that before we got our puppy.  Tybalt and Buttercup get along very well and both love to play with each other. Finally, we would like to say that Buttercup is very healthy.  She has been to the vet. for her routine
exams and shots and she has been given a clean bill of health.  She is starting to put on some fat on her belly which makes us all want to rub her tummy because it is so round.

   Well, I will close for now and perhaps update you on her progress in a year or so.  We truly appreciated the service and kindness that Teapup gave us and we look forward to growing old with our Buttercup.

Thank you so much,

Jeff, Karen, and Karis Romig.           August 18, 2008

 

 

 Very Impressed!

 Dear Dan and Deb

 It was so nice to meet you on Saturday when we picked up Bryce, our little Havanese. (His name now is Comet, after our girls'      cheerleading gym). He is the cutest little guy with the best personality. He did wonderfully on the 4 hr trip home and is adjusting so quickly to life in our home. Thank you for breeding such wonderful puppies. I have already recommended you guys to a ton of people in just a few short days. We were so impressed with your facility and how well run it is, as well as how happy and healthy the puppies are. Our 5 yr old Golden Retriever, Blazer, is very curious about him and when they play together it is absolutely hilarious! Comet is not intimidated in the least by Blazer's size and usually is the first to suggest a playtime. Just wanted to let you know he is very loved and the kids are just thrilled with their new addition. Thanks again for all you do.

  Hello Again, just a note to tell you how impressed our vet was with Comet (Bryce) our little Havanese puppy. She gave high compliments on how healthy he was and how up to date all of his medical care was. She said it is a rare thing to see and was so pleased to hear about the great facility you fun and that you actually provide what you promise - a healthy, happy puppy. Thanks again for all of your wonderful work and the adorable puppies you bring into the world. We are certainly grateful for our little Comet.

Thank You!

We couldn't help but to send a thank you , and a testimonial of how wonderful our new little Shih-Tzu puppy is.

 
We called your facility and spoke with Amber. She was simply wonderful. We live in the middle of Illinois, and she directed us through several phone calls on how to find the farm in northern Indiana. When we finally got there, and saw our new puppy, it was love at first sight..
 
We couldn't believe how good he was on the 4 hour drive home. It was as though he had ridden in a car his whole short life.

My secretary Tracy, knew that we had to put our Shih-Tzu of nearly 15 years to sleep. He was a wonderful pet, and we thought we could not replace him. Tracy had recently bought a Havanese puppy from you, and it's demeanor is very impressive. I walked into our office on Tuesday, June, 17th 2008, and she said, I found your new puppy. I went home and popped up the internet to show my wife Susan the picture of the Shih-Tzu named Rover, and she said let's go. That was 11:00 A.M. and we jumped in our car and drove 4 hours one way, to pick up our new puppy, now named Arthur.

We have had him for 7 days now, are astounded at his disposition, how well does when carrier. doesn't bark or whine, simply sleeps watches us quietly. housebreaking going well. Amber handed us a sheet as were leaving farm. She told us to follow these instructions, you will good dog. We have been following them, Arthur has proven in a short period time to be fast learner. When we walk down street, neighbors continually stop tell cute is, what an incredible disposition has.

We hope to enjoy Arthur for years, but one thing that my wife and I both agreed upon was that we won't have to think twice as to where we will look for our next puppy, hopefully many years from now.

 

Thank You once again Beers, and Amber, for our wonderful new family member..
