We had a wonderful experience with The Puppy Ark! Our sweet boy was clearly well cared for, socialized and very healthy. We got updated pictures every time we asked while waiting, since Pomeranian coats change fast as a puppy this was very appreciated! Joe answered every text promptly and delivered our puppy safely to Denver from Nebraska! We are in love with our new best friend and couldn’t have asked for a smoother experience! Thank you!

After experiencing fraud for $3,000 from an online pomeranian puppy scamer. I was referred to the Puppy Arc by the AKC registry as a decent and reputable breeder that sells only healthy quality teacup puppies. I called Joe and Olga that day. They said they had miniature Maltese puppies and would reserve one for me and never once asked for a penny until the day I recieved her. They even sent me updated photos while I waited for her to mature enough to separate from her mother safely. I don't think I have ever dealt with any company that cared as much about me as they did the puppies they had bred. They have contacted me each day to check on "Bella's"wellbeing,and answered any questions and gave me suggestions. I know they care about this baby Maltese as I do. I am already looking forward to purchasing a pomeranian within the next year, just to have a companion for Bella. I would recomend anyone looking to add a pet to the family to look into the Puppy Arc. They will not be disappointed

The Puppy Ark is a great company to buy a dog from. Joe was extremely helpful on keeping us updated, letting us know everything upfront and made meeting him a breeze. Our puppy is a morkie and is so cute everybody loves him! Great addition to any family.

If you're looking for a lovable healthy adorable puppy I highly recommend The Puppy Ark! The staff is very kind honest & helpful in finding the perfect fur baby for you & your home! & if you contact them they almost immediately reply everytime. We absolutely love our Shihtzu Hank! We got him at 8weeks old & he is now 6months old & he is perfect! Thanks again to The Puppy Ark! Follow them on Facebook they share adorable photos & videos daily of their beautiful adorable puppies! Here is a couple photos of My Shihtzu Hank from his very first photo (credit to The Puppy Ark) to a photo of him now at 6months old! We Love Him! ❤️ Thanks again to The Puppy Ark!!

Had a great experience with Puppy Ark. They were very responsive and answered all my questions and walked me through the first steps of properly taking care of my new floofer. All their puppies are so cute, it was hard to choose just one.

My wife dealt with Mr. Melton. He takes so much care with his litters. He is there when you have questions without getting aggravated. He spoils his fur baby litters and only wants the best for them. He also wants them to go to good families. It has been a wonderful experience for us. We have a beautiful little Morkie! Our experience was wonderful!!

He does an amazing job. Took my idea and created it. Very reasonably priced. Had it done in a couple days. I am going to use his services again.

We are so grateful for our new furry baby! Joe and Bonnie were super kind and patient as we went through all our questions to ensure they weren’t trying to scam us… and they obviously were not!Thank you so much fro bringing all the way to Denver for us!

We absolutely adore our little goofball. Joe was great in help match us to a puppy, and match our Heeler to the Puppy as well. Quick and honest responses, even after the adoption. Our little guy essentially came poddy trained! He definitely has the hearts of everyone in the family and everyone he meets.

I’m so happy I got my lil nut from puppy ark. Joe was fabulous keeping me up to date from when she was born to the day I picked her up, and even beyond! I recommend them to everyone I know, even those who don’t live in NE. They really do care for all of their puppies!

I got my sweet little porkie Wren from Joe at the puppy ark and it was an amazing experience you can tell that the puppy’s are very well cared for and they love the pups. Wren is perfect and so loving 10/10 will always recommend the puppy ark to anyone looking for a fur baby

This business is awesome! They kept my puppy until I was comfortable taking care of her. Joe delivered my puppy to Norfolk, Ne and he delivered a custom made piece of furniture to me also. He loves his dogs and make sure to give them the best start in their lives. He also answered questions I had in the days following the delivery.

I had a wonderful experience adopting from The Puppy Ark! Joe and his mother were both extremely helpful and care about their puppies very much. Finding a trustworthy breeder with the proper credentials can be a difficult and time-consuming task, but rest assured if you are considering The Puppy Ark for your new family member you have come to the right place. ☺️ I got my little Morkie (Yoshi) just a week ago and he has been a dream- The Puppy Ark provides all the needed paperwork and documentation to make sure that you stay on top of your pup’s health and wellness as they grow up. I will absolutely be recommending this place to anyone I know is in search of a quality puppy!

I wanted to check in with you. The reason for writing is to tell you how smart she is. My husband has a pacemaker. He wasn't feeling good one day and we both thought he was coming down with something but Abby did something unexpected that changed this. She hovered over my husband's chest and would not stop licking where his pacemaker is. I took his BP and it was very low. Took him to the doctor and found out why! Thanks to Abby he is well again!!She instinctively knew something was wrong. She has also went through a few seizures with me and brought me around.It always amazes me that no matter how young they are, they have a perfect instinct to help their human pack.She has learned so much already. She loves her bananas, blueberries and carrot treats. We play on the floor with her and she has so much energy. Sometimes we both see a little of every dog we have owned in her, which makes us love her even more, She loves her sling like pack that I carry her in. She loves car rides and anything we do as a family.You looked so sad when we picked her up. I wanted you to know that she is so happy and has excepted us fully! You did a wonderful job raising her, Thank you so much!

I highly recommend The Puppy Ark to anyone looking for a dog! They were very attentive to what I was looking for in a dog. Sent me lots of pictures and videos of different small breeds, answer my questions promptly. Kept me updated on the puppies I was inquiring about. Made the transition simple and continue to be available even afterwards for questions and concerns. And I love my Multipom hes so sweet and smart! Potty trained in just a couple of weeks, is growing fast!! Healthy beautiful animals!

Adopt don't shop. Millions of puppies and dogs in shelters needing homes, and yet people are breeding more for money. Not for the better of the breed, but for money. So extremely sad. Also the claim of docking tails and removing dewclaws if done early enough is not painful, is not true. It is stated on the AVMA (American Veterinary Medical Association) web page that it is a painful and unnecessary procedure.

Joe and Olga take such good care of their puppies. I sold them their property and they made it such an amazing home/puppy home with it. We are so proud to see how far they have come
