I wanted to give you an update on Gimli.

He has officially been certified as a therapy dogs with PALS Pets!

I am so grateful for him. He is the most well mannered dog. Thank you for bringing us together.

Good morning! 

We got Leonard (aka Lenny) the French Bulldog on November 9, 2018.

He is the perfect addition to our family. He is so full of love and is the most snuggly dog I have ever met. If someone sits down on the couch he is immediately in their lap. He has so much love to give and we wouldn’t want it any other way. 

He brought new energy into our home. Something our female Boston Terrier desperately needed after being alone for over a year after our male Boston Terrier passed away. Roo is now way more active and seems over all happier. Lenny definitely keeps ‘mama’ Roo on her toes. 

I am so thankful that we walked into Top Dog on that November afternoon. Lenny is such a blessing. Thank you Top Dog for connecting us with our sweet Lenny. 


Sincerely,

Kelly, Chris, Carly, Roo and Leonard

We adopted our beautiful puppy Luna Eclipse (Cocker Spaniel/Havanese) from your store on Saturday, April 13th. 

We wanted to thank you for our new fur baby addition to the family.  She is fitting right in!  

We especially want to thank Jenna and the rest of the staff for being so kind and helpful.  The store was busy that afternoon, but we never felt rushed or like we were imposing on staff with our questions.  Everything was explained to us as we were signing papers, including information on the guarantee and the importance of getting our puppy in for her initial vet visit.   

Luna is a wonderful addition to our family.  She is settling in well and is exactly the temperament we were looking for.   We had been looking for awhile to add to our family again.  It has been almost a year since our other dog (Jack Russell/Bichon) passed away at age 17.  

When we found your store website online,  we didn’t realize there were still pet stores that have puppies that people can come in, meet and interact with.  It was what we were looking to be able to do before getting another dog.   We appreciated that we could see pictures online of each individual puppy you have in your store.  It gave us a chance to research the breeds and how they might fit with our family.   In addition we valued the information you provided about how you get your puppies to reassure us that you are careful with the breeders you choose.  

Throughout our time in the store, Jenna and others were helpful and patient in answering our questions and finding various items we needed for Luna at home.  Luna is turning out to be such a delight as she gets to know us and feel comfortable in her new home.  Please pass along our thanks to Jenna and the rest of the staff.

Thank you again!!

Sincerest Regards,

Lynnette, Will & Alex

We have been enjoying our puppy Shiraz. . 

She is smart, beautiful and loaded with energy and personality. 

​

The neighborhood loves her and she always greets people by walking on her back legs which is very charming and it shows off her unique coloring.

It's been a year today since we were lucky enough to adopt Mr.Milo and oh how he has changed!

I just wanted to let you know that Louie our Mauzer,  joined our family four months ago and he is an absolute joy. 

We wanted a friend for Gunnar, our Yorkie. They have bonded incredibly well, considering Gunnar is 8 years old. They love to cuddle and play together all the time. 

Louie is spoiled, and has slept with us since day one. He cried so much the first night, we caved and moved him to our bed. He has slept all night, every night since his first with us! 

He is pure joy and cuddles and snuggles non stop. He is gentle and affectionate. He has brought renewed energy to Gunnar,  which we never thought we would see again. Our love is immense for this little dude. 

We just wanted to share some of our happiness with you! 

Sincerely,

The Slade's

Hello, 
Just wanted to reach out and say thank you to all the employees who took care of this puppy before allowing him to become a part of our lives.

Deebo loves playing fetch and snuggling with his new parents. We are absolutely obsessed and have fallen head over heels in love with him. 

Wishing all of you a happy holiday.   Brandon & Nikki

I just wanted to let you know that our 3 pups we got from Top Dog about 3 years ago have grown into beautiful dogs!

We have Hanna, the Yorkie x Havanese

Charlie, the Cavapoo and

Holly, the Cavalier Spaniel. 

We share our home with adults with intellectual challenges, and you should see how much joy Charlie bring to our young man. He can throw a ball, and Charlie will always bring it back for more! 

We also have a senior lady who is quite happy to drink her tea, and watch her favourite movie with Hanna and Holly curled up beside her.

Your care of dogs and helping us find the right pups for our family is amazing - we can’t thank you enough!!

I would just like to update you on our little mia! 

She has a personality of her own!

She's so smart and a character! She loves cuddles and playing with her best friend, Arya!

​

She enjoys getting sun on her tummy and rolling in the dirt, and has a thing for rocks and bottles!

She hates baths, staying in her kennel, and pooping and peeing outside if its windy and rainy! (The water gets into her ears).

She has little bursts of energy and runs around the yard like a chicken with her head cut off!

We are so happy that we found our precious mia and cant thank you enough for letting us take this beautiful dog home!

August, 2018

Hi,

​

This is Duchess.  She is a Top Dog Goldendoodle we took home in late March. 

She's happy, healthy and we love her. 

Thank you to you all!

Hi Top Dog!

Time for an update on GUS! We got him from you on August 25, 2016. Here is GUS on his 2nd birthday). 

GUS is absolutely the best little guy around and loves, I mean LOVES, to play fetch. We take him everywhere we go, including to work where we play more fetch and he acts as the door greeter for everyone who comes into the office.

GUS even enjoys his “getting away from the parents time” on Wednesday’s at doggy daycare.

We’d like to thank Top Dog for providing a safe place to purchase healthy puppy’s and who’s ethical practices ensures no puppy mills.

If we ever wish to expand our fur family in the future, we will remember Top Dog for sure.

Sincerely, Cynthia

Walked into your store on Saturday June 2nd just to look! Ended up leaving with a new family member. ❤️

Thank you Kira for all your help answering my questions. Baby Luna has adapted to life with her new parents so quickly!! She is so full of love, cuddles and kisses.

She was truly meant to be ours - we can’t imagine life without our little Luna.

Thank you guys for taking such good care of our baby for the first couple months of her life!! She is so smart and we love her so much. 

Love,  Bobby, Sonya and Luna

Hello, sorry for taking so long to send a photo of Kika, here she is!! She is 1 year already and in May will be a year that we got her from you guys.

Luna enjoying the yard. We are so blessed to have her. - Tammy

We just bought a puppy (specifically a cream Shiranian girl born November 2/17). We just wanted to extend our deepest appreciation to the staff of The Top Dog Store. To be honest, I was skeptical at first about buying a puppy from a “store” instead of a “breeder”, but I couldn’t have been more impressed with the staff and the puppies there! They all appeared to be very well taken care of, clean, happy, and very well socialized. Simply, everything you would want from a “breeder” and even better than some breeders that I have visited in the past.

The staff were great, especially the one who had helped us the night before and the day of our purchase. (I regretfully cannot remember her name, but I was just so enamoured by the newest member of our family that I didn’t hear or see anyone else in the room), but she was incredibly helpful and friendly throughout the process.

Kenna, the newest member of our family, has adjusted great! I haven’t lost any sleep, as she has slept through the night since day one. She has only barked twice while playing with our older dogs, but nothing since. She is playful, lovable and independent.

We thank you on behalf of all the dogs in your care! You are highly recommended by my family and I will definitely consider working with The Top Dog Store again if/when the time comes! - Noah 

Just wanted to send an update:

Kylo joined our family August 19, 2016 and it has been the best year.  We could not imagine life without him.

​

He is kind, cuddly, loving and so much fun.  He loves to play with our boys and the boys absolutely adore. 

We are so happy he joined our family and looking forward to the years to come. Thank you Top Dog !! 

~ Kindest regards, Karen 

Hi Top Dogs,

Just wanted to send some praise to your organization.

We have two Top Dogs  - we purchased Baxter, a Cavalier Poodle in April of 2015, and Molly, a Shitzu Poodle, in May of 2015.  

Our experience has been so amazing and the fur babies are doing amazing. So healthy and happy. I know there is criticism that people should take rescue dogs instead of buying new puppies and we have had one challenge at the park for what was referred to as our support of a "puppy mill purchase”.

To that we say ... Please stop.  

We actively support and volunteer with local rescue organizations, help rescue and place dogs, our choice to purchase from The Top Dog Store was to enjoy a puppy experience with the amazing option to hold and cuddle puppies and be able to choose the right dogs for us.  

We believe in the fact that you work with reputable breeders and do not support puppy mills, that you have a diligent process. If we buy directly from a breeder we have no way of being certain that they are not puppy milling.

I personally am a huge animal activist and have saved not only dogs but horses as well. I have been very impressed by your ownership and care.  We came by with a rescue dog recently and your staff gave us an extra discount on our purchase for all her first needs.

I am always impressed and I want to thank you for your bravery to stand up to all the criticism. It is easy to hate and harder to understand. 

We have your back!

Kind Regards,

Dawn C.

Just wanted to send you guys an update.

My family bought our puppy from you last

December, a West highland terrior!

Named him scribbles.

Just wanted to thank you all for being an

amazing store and giving us our beloved

fur baby. We love him so very much. ~ Trista

We just wanted to let you know that our little puppy Chewie has adjusted well to life at our house.  He's been a part of our family for a month now and he makes us all so happy.He is living up to his name by chewing on anything left out at floor level-slippers are his favourite!  Here are a few pics to share with you.  Thanks again for helping us find our four legged family member.~ Steve, Heather, Noah and Evan

I would just like to share an update about Cooper.

We got him from you guys exactly a month ago and he has brought so much joy in our lives.

Thank you and special thanks to Cerise for being patient with all of our questions.

The top left is the first day we got him and the bottom right was taken today after his first puppy trim. ~ Linda

Hello,

We were lucky enough to find our beautiful Yorkshire puppy at your store in March of last year and wanted to send you a picture of how she has grown since then.  Mila is now 7lbs and is the light of our life.

~ June and James

Thank you Top Dog for our new family member, he fits in beautifully.

The experience at Top Dog was excellent, I give it 5 stars. We picked up our Labra Doodle Doodle and surprised the kids, had them pick the name and of course they picked Doodle lol. The preparation and the patience that the employees show is amazing, all questions answered with no doubts left.

Again, thank you!

He is now almost 4 months old and already weighs 25lbs. Friendly and cuddly. ~ Domenic

I cannot tell you how much we love her!  We lost our last pet and only waited 1 month before we found Lila…..which was not the plan.  We missed our Tika dearly.

However, we never dreamed we would find such a pup!  She is the most amazing thing that has happened to us! We are just crazy in love and our hearts our full!

​

Thank you again! ~ Kari and Chris

............................................................

Hi Top Dog!  It’s me Lila!

I just wanted to let you know I love my family and I love my life! Thank you for finding me the Paw-fect Fur-ever home! You are Top Notch in our books!

Love, Lila

It has been over a week now since we purchased our fur baby from your store and things couldn’t be better.   We named our new “morkie” Skye and fell in love immediately.   She has adapted to our home quickly and will be treated like a princess that she is.  

I would like to thank all the staff at Top Dog for the great customer service and loving atmosphere.  Please let Marly know that Skye is in good hands and will never be without love.

Thank you for bringing Skye into our lives. 

~ Kim and Sharon

My husband and I purchased a puppy from you a couple weeks ago so I thought I would email so you can see how she is doing! :)  Her name is Bella.
Thanks, Riana 

Thanks Amy and everyone at The Top Dog Store!
A picture of Toby for you and the team!"
Cheers, Michael & Lindsey

Thank you to the Top Dog team for helping me find this energetic and sweet puppy Pom!

"Dolce" is very a quick learner and has found a great home!   

The staff at "Top Dog were knowledgeable and friendly but most of all cared for the homes the puppies were going to.

Thanks again for finding me the perfect member to our family! We will definitely will come back to Top Dog Store for a visit! - P

I have been meaning to send you some pictures of Dexter after we welcomed him into our family in  October. He's been a fantastic addition and we couldn't been happier!  - Dennis

Hey Top Dog!

Our new Mini Dachshund puppy, Zoe, is super sassy and loves to play! She's a huge cuddlebug and hasn't met a dog she doesn't like. Her current hobbies are chasing the cat and pulling on her doggy brother's beard. Thank you so much to Robert and Marion for making it possible for us to have our Zoe-girl! - Amy

We recently adopted "Joy", our Malti-Chin from Top Dog. She definitely brought joy to our lives!

Thanks to The Top Dog Store for being professionals, focusing on details, kindness, and providing excellent advice and tips. We love what you do and the way you find families for beautiful puppies by asking the right questions to ensure that each puppy match the right home. Here is a picture of a "Joy Moment".

Hi there we were in on Monday and picked up this cute little guy! We named him Jax.

Just want to say thanks he's doing great, full of energy and love. He's been a great addition to our family!

Here is our little Sophie with her favourite toy!

We’ve had her a week now. She’s such a joy to have around and we just love her to pieces.

Training is starting to get underway as she goes on her peepads most of the time and loves her crate now. She loves everyone she meets, welcoming them with kisses. 

​

Thanks Crystal and all the staff we talked to this week (probably everyone in the store) for all your patience and support. We really do appreciate it. -  Suzy and Bryan

Meeka loves snuggling up, relaxing, playing in the grass and is even learning how to play fetch! 

She loves meal time and staying warm on those chilly nights - Meeka is always happy to hangout on the BIG bed before bedtime. 

She is loved in her new home! She loves to play with all of her toys and snuggle with anyone that is around!

Hi there !
I purchased a chocolate Labradoodle type puppy from you this past summer and she is the awesomest dog ever!!

We love her to pieces! 

I already have her in tracking classes and she is great at it! Our instructor asked me if the mother of my pup was from a working line of labs as my pup has all of the qualities of a field lab and is a really good tracker. 

Everything is going great with Bella.

We have had her for a month and she is now house trained.  She goes to the back door and barks to let us know she needs to go out. 

She is just a wee pleasure to have and  we are enjoying every day with her.  She especially loves our granddaughter - kids and puppies a perfect combination for sure. - Liz

Just wanted to send you some pictures of Sandy with her new family.  We adopted her from The Top Dog Store on Nov 13, 2016. We brought home 8 lbs. of joy.

Sandy has been a great addition to our pack. She has an older brother, Magic (Siberian Husky) and sister, Roxy (Border Collie). 

Roxy and Sandy play non-stop until exhausted then recharge for the next session. Magic just watches and is probably thinking where do they get all that energy from.

Sandy is very smart and was very easy to train. She makes us laugh and smile every day. Roxy is so happy that she has a sister to play with every day. 

She now weighs 15 lbs. and is starting to get her long curly hair.

​

Would like to thank the staff at The Top Dog Store for taking such good care of Sandy and making her the happy girl that she is. - Kathy G.

Hi! Here is Tally, we got her from you last year.

She is the most gorgeous, gentle, sweet animal. She is amazing with our toddler, who was a baby when we got her.

Tally listens and behaves so well, and is an incredible member of our family. Everyone who meets her loves her and not to mention she is the prettiest bull dog I have ever seen.

She is loved dearly by her entire family and extended family. - Michelle H.

Hi!
I fell in love the minute I held her for the first time and couldn't be anymore in love.

Her name is Lucy and I've been a mum to my fur baby just over a year! Lucy is looking to be a big sister fairly soon! - Lucy's Mom

Hi, I have one of the labradoodles that was at your store. She is doing great and I am so happy to have her. Thank you so much. 

​

Her name is Brandi…..and she is 10 weeks old now. She loves being outside and being with her new family. thank you again.  - Debra

Update

This is Brandi now at 8 months old. She is a hand full sometimes but love her to pieces. Thanks again for this wonderful dog .

Couldn't imgaine our lives without him. - Kerrie

Hello Top Dog Store

We welcomed our adorable fur babies into our families last week!

They are both so happy, loving and playful not to mention ridiculously cute. We are all so in love with them and they have fit perfectly into our families. These brothers will spend lots of quality time together.

Just a quick note to thank all your team for matching us with our Bichon / Chihuahua puppy, "Fenn" - named because he looks like a little Fennec Fox - so very, very cute with his big floppy ears and loving eyes!

Our new little man has brought so much happiness and joy to our lives - while all the training, early mornings and endless, endless puppy energy can be tiring some days - when I see his little face, it always brings a smile to my heart.

His little waging tail that greats me after work gives me a new look on life - such a sweetie!

Thanks especially to Marley for all her help the first Saturday we met and the then Thursday we took Fenn home for ensuring he was "the one" for us and her patience as we picked out all the stuff we needed to bring him home!! xo Marley

Again, thanks for the great service we receive at your store and your work you do ensuring the breeders are ethical.

xo Stephen and Mike (Fenn's Dads)

Jaxon has been great, it didn't take him much time to get used to his new home. He has no problems being in his crate, he actually loves it in there which is great because he never cries at night.

​

He is the perfect passenger when we go for car rides, the entire time he will sit on the seat or on your lap without moving or whining.

​

His favourite toys include two giraffes, one cow and one turtle, he can play for as long as you want and when it is time to settle down he will cuddle with you on the couch.

​

I couldn't have ask for a better puppy, he is the perfect fit to our little family and we look forward to many more years of love and fun with him. ~  Nicole

Dear Amy and Friends at The Top Dog Store,

Penny has been with us one week now, she is sleeping through the night, playing fetch with her little ball and brings it back everytime.

She is such a joy to be with and it's our pleasure to boast that she is such an important part of our family and I can't elaborate how much love we have for her.

Isn't that the purpose of your store? You have completed us!! Thank you from all of us.  - Michelle 

Hi Top Dog- 

I wanted to send you an update on our Cockapoo, Parker, which we bought from you back in March.

He's a fluffy ball of energy and quite the model! We recently got engaged and we couldn't help but include Parker in our photo (he's family after all!).

We wanted to praise the store for providing excellent dogs from fantastic breeders, we can tell that he came from a well-adjusted home prior to ours - he is friendly towards everyone, especially kids, and we rarely hear a peep out of him (he rarely barks). 

​

Hi guys!

This is Lily, she's so perfect!

Thanks a lot for being patient and so helpful during this last 2 months we were searching for our 4th family member.

We couldn't be happier with Lily!
