I bought my chocolate Labrador from the left paw a month ago. He has been the the vet three times since then and had no medical problems at all! I noticed in the reviews I read that people were complaining because their dogs contracted an illness from another dog before coming home with them. It’s impossible to know that every puppy is 100% healthy when someone comes into the store and buys them. There are pups there that just got there that day! Who knows who has what? No matter where the dogs come from or where they are when you go to meet them, they SHOULD be around other dogs and ARE around other dogs. It’s extremely important for dogs to socialize at this age and be near other dogs. Kennel couch and other minor health problems are the risk of this necessity. Don’t Blame the store though.The girls that were working the night I bought my handsome little boy pupper were very polite and waited for me even after their closing time (as I was running late). When I arrived, I didn’t feel rushed. I was happy with every aspect of the service I received. I’m so happy I decided to buy this dog. He’s such a good pup. I hope this helps someone and I hope if you do decide to get a puppy, that it ends up being the right one for you.
I have always adopted from shelters, but after many of months of searching ending with disappointment, we adopted our dogs from The Left Paw. The store is always immaculate, cages clean, healthy pups and you can tell the staff really cares about their puppies and the homes they go too. On occassion, we visit with our CoCo and he still remembers Sarah and is so happy to see her.
10/10 would recommendUpon my first impression and from being to other puppy stores, the cages are clean and spacious, the puppies are alert, pudgy and happy. I purchased a Pomsky from there in 2019 and she is PERFECT. She was very healthy (still is) and I havent had any issues upon bringing her home. Pomskies are hard to come by and the left paw seems to have the most! Its worth the trip!! These people have integrity and take care of their dogs
Loved getting our puppy from here! Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable and the experience was great. They really stand by their dogs and I’d recommend to anyone looking to consider coming to The Left Paw.
I have lived on Long Island my whole life and this is one of the best puppy stores i have been to. The staff is super knowledgeable about all their puppies and helped pick the best puppy suitable for my situation. I got my toy poodle (Dolce) from here and she is just the best. I come back monthly with Dolce to visit and get the lifetime free nail clippings!
I recently purchased a Brussels griffon, Shih tzu mix = Adorable. Healthy, intelligent, loving, a perfect addition to my small family.
We just had the best experience here! Vanessa, I believe her name was, was so helpful and kind. The whole staff was so helpful and the atmosphere itself was incredible! It was clean and the dogs seem very healthy. They provide the lineage of the puppies and answer any questions. Would definitely recommend buying from here!
The 2 young ladies that greeted me were very nice and I could tell that they love the pups :) I loved the first dog they showed me and didnt look at any others. However, she was a bit too expensive (for me) but I am waiting to see if she gets discounted. All the puppies in the store looked healthy and happy. They were active and playing. The store and crates were very clean.
The Left Paw is an amazing place to buy a new puppy! My mom and I went there looking for a new addition to our family for my daughter’s birthday and we instantly fell in love with our new puppy! The staff was amazing they all went above and beyond to make everything so easy and fun we got to sit and play with our puppy the whole time while they took care of everything they even set us up with everything we needed to take our new puppy home and they took the time to explain every single thing even though we came after work so it was late and we were there after closing hours they stayed with smiles to explain it all! Sasha was such an amazing person she is so kind and helpful she even went in the back and put a going home bow on him and cleaned him up right before we left! If your looking to buy a puppy and not wait for hours or your not sure where to go This is the place you want to be! They have the most amazing staff they are very knowledgeable they have amazing puppies they are so quick and efficient I highly recommend The Left Paw to everybody! I usually never write reviews either but I was so happy with my new puppy and the whole experience that they deserve 10 stars!!! They are also very safe during this pandemic and they make sure everyone stays 6feet apart and there aren’t to many people in the store and that everyone uses hand sanitizer! That made me feel so much better and a lot safer everything about this place especially the staff and my experience and my handsome new puppy was hands down amazing!
It is recommended to first call and make an appointment before going in, for COVID safety. It is a small shop and not too many puppies for display. You can look on their website to see what they have available and it is true to what they have in store. They really know their puppies and their puppies look happy and well taken care of. Their prices are reasonable (all puppies now are between 3-5k wherever you go). Before you can bring home a puppy, they do vet checks and one last grooming.
If you visit this store you will see just how STERILE the entire place is. I have been overjoyed and blessed by my baby I purchased from them, previously Marley, and now Bentley! He has the most hysterical personality and was clearly very loved and comfortable prior to me taking him home. Thank you Sarah for your kindness and upmost care and love for all of your puppies because its extremely hard to come by.
My daughter and I bought mini dashchund puppies fromleft paw. They were perfect! We got all the proper paperwork and the staff was very helpful. The dogs were healthy and seem properly taken care of. I would buy another dog from there!
Being somewhat skeptical of puppy stores, I at first was anxious going from place to place searching for my forever pup. After a brief, friendly conversation over the phone, I was able to set up an available appointment to see the sweet and loving mini golden doodle that I have today. During the appointment, I did not feel hassled or rushed to make a decision. Needing a night to think it over, they were gracious enough to put a hold on her so no other people were able to see her. Once I had made up my mind and committed, for the health of all their dogs and her, they had to keep her for vet visits and checkups. I was able to visit her at least once a day, almost always more, but there was no issue or problem with setting up an appointment. Overall, I would say that the people working there, and the owner herself are very kind and respectable. For anyone potentially looking to get a puppy for themselves, it is a lot of responsibility but know that youll get a healthy and adorable forever dog though The Left Paw!
I cant say enough great things about this place. Sarah is the sweetest and most compassionate business owner I ever met. She truly goes above and beyond for all her puppies and makes sure they are all healthy and happy so they can find the perfect forever home. She takes timeto source every breeder to make sure each puppy she receives come from a properly managed place and not a puppy mill. Her staff takes time to help educate you on everything you need to know about caring for your puppy before taking them home. There are plenty of helpful things you can buy from their store to help acclimate the new puppy to their new home. Looking for a new puppy can be a very stressful process, but you can rest assure that you have come to the right place.SincerelyLev & Danielle
My daughter & I had brought a beautiful male chihuahua on Sept 19th. Hes the most beautiful puppy you could ever see. Many people wouldnt look at him because of his coat color, which is Blue Merle. His original name was Bleu, but we renamed him, Taco, which fits him better. He went from being very timid to a wonderful spunky, playful puppy. We love him so much and he even loves my boyfriend, whose pictured holding him. Glad I went here. The staffs so wonderful and very helpful.
We recently got a new Puppy from The Left Paw, a beautiful Black Lab Girl, Lucy. Everyone was so nice, service was great, and we love our new little girl!The Puppy is in excellent physical condition, and has a great personality. The owner Sarah and her staff were extremely helpful and take good care of their dogs. Would recommend this place any time.
Bought my cockapoo here 2 weeks ago , the staff help so much on picking the right puppy for me ! They knew tons of knowledge of the puppies and their pricing were reasonable just cause it comes with so many things included. I am very happy with my new puppy and i will definitely recommend my friends and family here ! The store smells great and it’s very different than any other puppy store i went too . Thank You to the staff Brianna , Gina and Camila for your amazing customer service ! You guys are the best !
After driving also 1:30 hr I was told I could not see or purchase a dog because it was past their feeding time … like are you serious - to see a puppy and buy it I have to come between feeding … how is that a business practice or at least it should be communicated on your site… not cool at all 👎🏼 👎🏼 👎🏼 👎🏼 👎🏼 - PS : I did an appointmentResponse :I did tell you I was going to be driving from CT to which it was going to take some time … I don’t control traffic …. You said you will be there that It wouldn’t be a problem … you never mentioned anything about feeding time or about needing an appointment to purchase a dog or a late/reschedule policy … on your site it says “ at this time the left paw is open only by appointment… “ to which I would interpret as : to visit the store you are only accepting appointment ( even though when I was there , customers walked in and were looking around the other puppies available , I suppose no appointment either ) if you have your policies I respect them but just communicate them better
Last August 1st, we got our Bichon Frise as a retirement present for my husband and a pet for my son. Whenever I called, Sarah, Shana, and Alison were so welcoming and kind in answering all our questions about the process of purchasing our beloved puppy. On the other hand, Vanessa, the manager thoroughly walked us through from feeding to keeping our Stella healthy.Today, we visited them and as an added bonus, our new puppy got a “free” nail clipping. If you wanted a puppy buddy, Left Paw is the place to be where Puppy Care continues. Thank you ladies!
The store is relatively clean and better maintained than some other pet stores but theres a cavalier puppy here that looks so sad and sick. Workers also said puppies werent from PA but instead the Midwest even though its a known fact that the Midwest is puppy mill central. Ended up leaving the store not feeling comfortable buying a puppy that might have health issues for such a high price (the dogs we inquired about were ranging in price from $3800 to $5000!!) from a store and will probably go the shelter route, but YMMV.
LOVE this place. I have to admit, I was iffy about shopping at puppy stores, as I’ve seen how other places treat the dogs they sell. However, I came here because I was looking for a dog, and knew right off the bat that they treat their puppies with love and care. They separate the dogs by size and temperament so that each puppy feels comfortable. The staff was VERY knowledgeable on all dog breeds, and throughly explained how they care for the puppies. I ended up purchasing an adorable chihuahua, my best friend Pablo!! They gave me great insight on how to care for him in his younger weeks, and gave me a list of veterinary recommendations. A week after we brought Pablo home, the owner called us to check in and see how he was doing. We return to the store every so often to purchase food and wee wee pads-we love the staff and how we’re greeted when we enter the store! We love our little Pablo and couldn’t have been happier with the decision we made. If you would like to see our adorable Pablo, check out his Instagram! @bigapplepablo
The workers are very friendly and it’s a lovely store, I bought my puppy here she turned out to be expensive of course, but they had this deal where you bring your puppy to the vet they tell you to go to and the shots/sickness within a certain amount of time is covered, which is great. However, I agree with the below comments, my puppy had kennel cough within 3 days of bringing her home & she also had the giardia parasite. I love my puppy wouldn’t give her back for anything, but there definitely should be more caution with the types of sicknesses these puppies can get from one another because I went through a lot with my puppy the first 2 months. And as I can see I’m not the only one who received a sick puppy from this store.
We had such an amazing experience at the left.paw. The staff, especially Bryanna, communicated with us for two weeks while we waited for the arrival of our mini goldendoodle. They were so wonderful and truly cared about us and our new little family member. They spoke to the breeder for us while.we waited and communicated openly and honestly all about our puppy. Then, our arrival!!!! Our Buddy couldnt be more perfect for our family. Bryanna educated us on everything we needed to do and what to expect from.our new puppy. They sent us with the supplies we needed, as well as all of the info for the vet etc (which we couldnt be happier with). Our boy is a happy healthy pup and couldnt imagine having gone anywhere or gone through anyone else for this entire experience. Thank you for everything!
Found my pup, Archie, here just before the city shut down for the quarantine. Everything was safe and sanitized and they took time to figure out the best pup for me based on what I wanted in a dog. I owned a Jack Russell for 16 years and was nervous a new dog wouldn’t live up to my previous one. Archie and I have been together a month and he has been a great puppy. Thanks for all the help in finding me a new best friend!
I recently bought a beautiful Maltese puppy from The Left Paw, and this pet shop was definitely worth the 2 hour drive from upstate NY. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, and made my puppy purchasing experience great. John, as well as his employees, all have a relationship with each puppy and truly care about finding them the best homes possible. I have recommended this puppy pet shop to numerous family members and friends, and I would definitely purchase a puppy from here again in the future.
I originally saw The Left Paw’s Instagram and was very pleased to see how active and up to date their social media was. That’s usually a good sign. I travelled all the way from the Bronx to visit this shop The next day just to see what dogs they had. The staff there was so friendly and answered all my questions. Then they introduced me to a white/brown shih Tzu that I immediately fell in love with!!! Once I laid my eyes on that dog I knew he was for me. The staff let me play with him and it was a done deal, there was no way I was gonna walk out of the store without him. He’s now in our lovely home going on 4 months and he’s been the family treasure. He’s so friendly, so sweet and so adorable.Lastly, I brought him for a check up immediately after I bought him to make sure everything was okay health wise and he was perfectly healthy! The dogs at the left paw are well taken cared of. I’ll be getting another puppy soon and will probably come back to this store to get one. Definitely recommend this store!
My family had a great experience here. This place is a dream come true for any puppy seekers out there that lack expertise when it comes to dogs. The staff was not only helpful and kind, but KNOWLEDGEABLE! The dogs were full of energy. Overall, my experience was filled with constant smiles from both humans, and from dogs. I took home a chocolate labrador, Charlie. Hes been living with me for three weeks now, and we couldnt be closer! I definitely chose the right place to find my new pup.
This pet store is amazing! I’ve always been skeptical about shopping at puppy stores but after coming here it was a great experience they were extremely helpful especially Vanessa she was so nice and I bought a beautiful puppy that I’ve had for a week now and I couldn’t be happier that I purchased my puppy from here. I would definitely come here again when I’m ready to get another puppy!
What a great hidden gem!! This little puppy store has such a great selection of puppies (healthy!!!) and everything I needed to make my new baby comfortable at home.The staff was friendly, knew what they were talking about and helped me decide on my new baby JACK the Cocker Spaniel. The were very honest about the possitive as well as the negative aspects of the breed. I really appreciate them taking the time to help me decide.I recomend them to anyone looking for a puppy. They were great!!
This is by far the best puppy store Ive ever been to. The dogs are taken great care of by caring and loving staff, and everyone who works there is so knowledgeable and experienced! The dogs are so happy there and its so clean. Definitely recommend anyone going here whether to buy a puppy or to just take a look.
Ive had bought my dog from the left paw back on November 29th of 2017 and Ive never been more happier with my baby girl Rosie, and I would definitely recommend people here to get a puppy from them and people like Vanessa and John were very polite and helpful. One year later and Im still happy with my dog.
Great customer service, nice little shop. I just got my little one from there and she is a pretty one.
So, we got our first puppy at this place. He was so cute so we had to take him home. Right when we got home we realized that he had a bad cough which delayed all of his shots. Finally, when his cough went away and we completed all the shots we went back to The Left Paw because the owner had asked to see the dog again. When we asked if our dog could come in the response was not expected. In a mean tone they told us “IF HE HAS HAD ALL HIS SHOTS!” We are never buying a dog again and will always adopt.
I would like to take the time to give 5 stars to The Left Paw. I have been going to this store for the past 3 years. Sarah , John and Vanessa has been so amazing. They are so knowledgeable and very kind. They are not pushy at all. The place is beautiful and clean. The dogs seem very happy.
One of the best and cleanest pet shops Ive ever been too! I got my puppy there and my family and I love him so much! We had such a positive experience at the store and would recommend anyone we know to go and purchase a puppy!
Sarah, vanessa and the girls are great! I love visiting the puppies. Theyre so cute and playful. I got my sons puppy here and he is absolutely a perfect puppy!
I called your store to inquire about one of the puppies I saw on your insta page and spoke to Bryanna who was so helpful and gave me so much information. She was patient with me as I asked her many questions and was such a pleasure to talk to. Thank you Bryanna, you guys will definitely be seeing me soon!!
I didnt purchase a pet but they were the very helpful and had a decent price that I missed out on, great place with a good selection.
I adopted a puppy yorkie male,this was my first pet. I kept him for 3 day it then i realised it was hard to take care of him and I felt I cant do this. I also have 2 little kids so I decided to give him back. I paid them $ 2100 for this puppy and when I returned it they only gave me $1000 back. After returning him I realised that my kids were so much attached to him and they were sad so i went back to get him the next day. I told them i need the puppy back but they said they sold it to someone but the puppy was still there. They are very greedy people. Dont buy from this place.
Bought a toy poodle here, great shop! Highly recommended!!
The puppies are not taken out so they arent potty trained, and I requested lineage information on a puppy and was told responsive breeder, bad rap on line as a puppy mill but inspected frequently and really does care just has more massive model. They promised to email breeder to get info, no problem, he responds quickly and will get back soon... Then never heard from them, called and was told they were probably waiting on him to respond still... I think that likely he is more of a puppy mill, and I think that the way thr dogs go unwalked and untrained is really not right.
We played with this dachshund chihuahua mix named Pudgy, and we loved him. The staff were really nice and they gave us all the information we needed.They are doing a great job with the puppies.This is the greatest pet store ever to be built.
I love this place I bought my first puppy ever from here.. as a new pet owner I always have plenty of questions and concerns and I could always count on the staff here to help me out in any and everything that had to do with my puppy i love love love this place. Continue doing a great job guys God bless
Vanessa and Shauna, two amazing girls helped me take home my wonderful puppy. All I wanted was coffee from Dunkin next door, and I ended my day with a new friend 😅
Amazing store and staff showed an amazing amount of patience when dealing with my 8 YO son who didnt have the patience to wait for the arrival of the breed I am looking for.Beautiful puppies, clean store, Great place to buy your Forever Friend
Bought my beautiful healthy Labradoodle from there @ 4months old. 😍❤🐩
Love this place. I went in on a whim and I left with the cutest little chihuahua that I named Hazel.She saw the vet last night and he said shes perfect.Definitley one of my top ten buying experiences. Thank You Left Paw!!
Told back in 30 minutes then when I returned I was asked to call and make and appointment dont tell me to come back just to tell me to call horrible customer service and attitude close or schedule your meeting or have meetings at some other time dont waste peoples time
I had about a million questions about specific breeds and they were kind enough to answer every single one of them. Very knowledgeable and kind people work here. I cant wait to get my next dog from these wonderful people
Went to see puppy, the poor thing had hair loss on its head and severe kennel cough, dog area had lots of feces, very unkempt and sick dogs. Will be making a complaint with proper authorities. They dont even deserve 1 star
I bought a mini goldendoodle from here and shes just amazing! The best choice i made was purchasing a dog from here! Thankyou the left paw!
Beautiful puppies but ridiculously expensive. I wouldnt recommend this placw
I bought a very expensive puppy from here and they told me the puppy is hypoallergenic it turns out it wasnt when I call them back they refused to take the puppy back.
Seems like a really wonderful place. The staff are superb.
Went on Saturday. No puppies under $5000 dollars. Price gouging during the pandemic. Very sad
John and his associate are awesome. They listen to you, not pushy and really care. They really care and enjoy what they do and it shows
I love it I see a puppy that I call frenchie and he is so cute
They have room just to pet the pups. Just You & your love ones in a space with the pups.
So many cute puppies, and the employees were extremely informative and helpful glad I came here from the city
The assistants were very very helpful and really cool environment with dogs around..
I bought my Chihuahua here excellent care on pups
I love this place. I got my golden doodle Mako from here. Kind staff. Thanks left paw!!!

Started bringing my dog here for daycare services as the location is super convenient and I can’t say enough great things about the staff and facility. They take such good care of my pup and he always comes home tired. He LOVES everyone there and is always excited when we go back. The report cards are such a cute touch and I love reading them.
Very good attention

2022-06-16We got our puppy Goose (originally Cooper) here over a month ago, and we are so in love with him. He is so wonderful, even with our two year old son. As a first time dog owner, we were nervous, but Goose was perfectly healthy and such a happy boy. Some of the staff members are more knowledgeable than others. I really appreciated Alexis who went over all of the paper work and care instructions. She was beyond helpful and extremely friendly. I had so many questions, but she was able to answer all of them. She actually called me two weeks after we had purchased Goose to check up on him and us, which I also appreciated. The puppies at the store all look happy and healthy, which is the most important thing.6/16/22 Update: Brought Goose here for his for day camp session and he had a blast. I love the report card feature since I can read about and see pictures of his day. Of course Goose, being the social butterfly that he is, charmed everyone! Gabe is so friendly and you can tell he really cares about the dogs there. We also bring him here for his monthly bath and nail trimming and he comes out so soft and smelling amazing!

2022-02-09I cant say enough wonderful things about this pet shop. The dogs are very well cared for. They get visited by the Vet for a well care checkup frequently. The staff is friendly and warm. You can tell that this is not just a job to them. They genuinely love these animals and tenderly take care of these dogs. They have a wide variety of small to medium dogs and all the dogs are friendly because they are so nutured by the staff. They also have a groomer next door and a doggie day care center. And the best thing is that since they are all connected next door to each other, if sthere is ever a problem that the dog is home sick, one of the staff goes next door to comfort the dog since they know them so well. An all-in-one spectacular pet shop. I purchase my Wheaten Terrier, Bella last week and she is precious friendly and healthy.

2021-10-01This dog was the best . His name is Oliver on line. He is a sweet heart. Not aggressive. Seemed to be good with a 2 year old. He is teething but was not too aggressive biting. Did not bark at all and we were there 1/2 hour.

2022-02-13I purchased my chiweenie, Bullet, in July 2020 from the Left Paw. It was the best decision I couldve made. The staff was courteous, friendly and very helpful. Bullet has flourished with me and am grateful they found me my perfect lil pup.

2020-08-16I bought a dog from them about a year ago for $1000, best purchase I’ve ever made. A tiny little Aussie-doodle, I named her Princess and she just turned a year old last month. She helped me through some very hard times and I’m sure others from this store are the same. Very friendly staff, always so happy to see her when I take her for nail cutting (which is free btw!). Highly recommended.
