Just visited Posh Puppies and while there were some negatives about the place, there were also positives.
Negatives:
First, this place SMELLS....really bad. The smell starts in the parking lot and when we got inside it was almost bad enough to make us leave right away. The only reason we didn't was because it took us 45 minutes to get down there and we didn't want it to be for nothing.
Second, we had to wait FOUR HOURS to see the one puppy we were looking to possibly adopt. Four hours in this stink hole was almost bad enough to make us tear our hair out. There is only one visiting room in the whole place (it is a very small place), and although there is a sign that says you can only be in the room 15 minutes at a time, they did not follow it....we were next in line for over 2 hours.
Positives:
First, the little girl we ended up adopting is perfect. We couldn't possibly ask for a better puppy. She seems healthy and they gave us all of her vet records which were in depth with vet info.
Second, they make sure to clean up the puppies a bit before they bring them in the room with you...which is why it took so long to wait in line I'm sure...
Third, they groom them completely if you decide to adopt them and bring them home with you. Our baby girl looked like a million bucks. They spent quite a bit of time grooming her making sure she was clean and perfect. Even put a little pink bow in her hair too!
Lastly, the woman who seems to run this place REALLY does care about these animals. They make sure the people who are adopting the animals are good people who really want a loving companion and can give it the care and attention it needs. She went over with us in depth all the things we should be doing to take care of our little lady and keep her safe before we brought her back home with us. I think this was the most important detail about this place, because if you just walk into this place it looks (smells) like they could care less...but talking to this lady you could tell she genuinely did care about these animals and was taking care of all of them the best she could with this non-profit business.
Over all....I would say give this place a shot. We couldn't find the kind of dog we wanted anywhere else close by and the little girl we have is just precious...we couldn't see life without her now! If we ever go in there again we'll just make sure to bring about 5 cans of Febreeze.
