Take Time to Get to Know Your Puppy
Choosing a puppy involves considering their needs alongside your household and daily routine. Our staff help families explore different breeds and personalities and discuss which puppy may suit their lifestyle.
Bring questions about your puppy’s background, early care, and the responsibilities of homecoming. Our puppy care and transparency guide connects the breeder information, warranty details, and guidance available to families.
Direct Relationships With Licensed Breeders
Our puppies come directly from breeders we work with. Happiness Is Pets maintains regular contact with its breeder partners and visits many of their facilities monthly to observe care practices and the attention dogs receive.
Our selection values knowledge, honesty, and compassionate care. Read about our breeder relationships and ask our team about the background of the puppy you are considering.
Room for Exercise, Enrichment, and Socialization
Our partnered breeders’ kennels include direct-access outdoor runs that dogs can use throughout the day. These can open into larger enrichment areas where dogs exercise, interact with caregivers, and socialize with other dogs.
Daily attention and social experiences are part of the early care described on our breeder page. These details give families more information to discuss when learning about a puppy’s beginnings.
Understanding Canine Care Certified
Most of our breeders are Canine Care Certified. Developed by veterinary experts at Purdue University, this science-based program addresses canine health, housing, care, and socialization.
Participating breeders undergo independent third-party audits each year. Our breeder FAQs explain the certification and its care standards.
Veterinary Care and the Two-Year Health Warranty
Your puppy receives an initial veterinary examination within seven days of purchase. Medication determined necessary during that period is provided at no charge; normal and routine puppy vaccinations are excluded.
Our two-year health warranty addresses congenital or hereditary conditions diagnosed by a veterinarian that severely affect the dog’s health. Qualifying cases may receive up to a full refund. Happiness Is Pets does not require you to relinquish ownership of your puppy under this warranty.
Review the written health warranty and discuss its terms with our team before making your decision.

What Customers Say About Happiness Is Pets
★★★★★
“Very clean pet place, you can tell their puppies are very well cared for, happy, and healthy! Staff is very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about each puppies and their breeds and each of their personalities. If I could’ve gotten financing I would have been leaving with a new puppy because we loved one very very much, but unfortunately timing with financing just wasn’t right for us. We will likely try again when we are more likely to be approved and we find another puppy that we may love to give a forever loving home!!

★★★★★
