Customer Reviews:  I like to share emails that I received from the families who have adopted our pups. These are unsolicited and unedited.  

Thanks so much to our adoptive families for your positive feedback and staying in touch.  Your compliments and praise mean so much to me as a sign of recognition for our dedication here to our pups…giving them the best start in life, so that you can reap the rewards of a well loved, well cared for puppy.  It’s so nice to hear that you appreciate all the hard work and effort we put into our pups for you to enjoy them for many years to come:)

To our new potential customers, I prefer to share the continual flow of emails that I receive from our customers rather than take my precious time responding to falsehoods I’ve read by bloggers on the internet. 

I look forward to hearing from you!

    Warm regards, Patricia

George Bailey

Hello Patricia,

I hope you are well! One year ago Sunday, we brought home George Bailey. He is such a joy!! We love him so much. He loves playing catch, knows how to sit, stay, and give paw ( he onluy gives his left paw) taking walks and playing with his big brother Frisco. He especially loves barking at the door to let us know he needs to go outside, then running back to make sure Frisco is coming with him even if Frisco has no interest!! He weighs about 30 pounds so he’s a perfect weight for his size.

Thank you for raising such great dogs. Bailey is nice and healthy. We love having him as part of our family.

With love,

Greg, Gina, Megan, Ryan, Jason, Frisco, George Bailey

Donte

Hi Patricia!

Just want to give you an update on Donte! He is amazing! He just graduated puppy school and to celebrate we took him to Hilton Head. He was terrific in the car. He loved the beach and meeting other dogs. So many people stopped us to tell us how cute he is. He went to restaurants with us and was very well behaved. We hope you are well and enjoying life as much as we are with Donte.

Penny

Dear Patricia,

I wanted you to know how much I love my puppy that I got from you in January. Her name is Penny (since she came from Pennington, NJ). She is wonderful and has been a blessing for me. Penny is gorgeous and very smart. Everyone says so, not just me.

I had a difficult winter due to my husband’s death, and she has turned things around for me. Taking care of her and enjoying everything she does has helped me so much.

Just wanted you to know that your puppies make a difference in people’s lives.

Thanks and Happy Spring!

Hope all is well! We wanted to share that Baccala turns 1 year old on Thursday! We can’t believe how quickly it has gone, it has been the best year! His favorite things are playing fetch, visiting the beach, and carrying sticks on walks.

Our family is complete (for now)! Thank you for everything.

Love,

Giovanna C., AJ, and Baccala

Sadie

Hi Patricia,

Sadie is absolutely adorable and everyone who meets her loves her. She’s very smart and is learning to sit, lay down and stay. She’s teething a lot so we’re working on that. Sometimes her toys and teething rings work, other times she finds her family more satisfying!

Here’s a photo of her having fun in the backyard.

Hope all is well with you and all of your beautiful puppies!

Hi Patricia ,

Happy New Year! I hope you and your family are doing well! I wanted to send you a few pictures of our Millie from Basil and Dudley’s liter back in July 2020! We picked her up on 9/26/2020! Millie is the sweetest little dog! She brings us so much joy and is so great with our kids! Millie is silly, smart, sweet and just such a great dog! She protects us from squirrels , the UPS man and anyone that comes close to our house! We love her so much! Since day 1 she has always gone to her bell at the front door to go out! She loves to go on walks and hikes with us and loves playing with the kids! Every morning she has to give everyone kisses when they wake up and enjoys sleeping in bed with us at night on our pillows! She’s also a tiny little thing weighing only 20 lbs!

I hope you enjoy these pictures!

Best,

Ginger

My family and I are just so grateful to Patricia Hess from Bella pups. We are in love with our mini Goldendoodle, who is healthy, energetic, playful, affectionate and loves to cuddle. She has been the perfect addition to our family. I loved working with Patricia from start to finish. When I first wanted to purchase a puppy and reached out to her, I knew nothing about taking care of the needs of a puppy.

Patricia provided advice and never rushed me in the process of a purchase. I decided to wait and prepare and when I was ready, I knew I only wanted to work with her. She could have taken my funds, like other breeders, but for the best interest of puppy and my family, she gave me advice and suggested that I wait until I was ready. I have dealt with other breeders, and no one ever took the time to guide me. My Ginger is the most adorable pup area.

Thank you Patricia for all you do.

Winnie

Hi Patricia

We just wanted to get in touch with an update on Winnie. We can't believe she's already 1 year old. It was Easter morning last year that we received your email telling us that a litter had arrived and we were on the list to receive a puppy. We were so excited and couldn't wait to get one. We kept looking at the litter progress pictures online trying to figure out which one we might get. When we brought her home it was love at first sight. She was, and continues to be, the sweetest little girl. And as she's grown, she has developed such a wonderful, playful and silly personality. There are days when she looks at us and we can see her thinking - she's smart and easy to train. We can't be happier with our Winnie! She is such an amazing addition the family. We've recommended you to anyone who asks about where we got her (and it's usually everyone she meets). They are all in love with her and want one just like her.

Thank you for breeding such wonderful little pups and giving them the time and love that you do for those first couple of months. The result is a loving, playful, happy puppy that a family can easily accept and love.

Thank you!

Kate H. and family

Daisy

Hi Patricia

Just a hello now that Daisy is 2 yr. & 2mo. hope all is well with you & pups!

It has been amazing to watch Daisy’s stages of development. She is super smart, loves to play catch, completely housebroken from day one, and the love of our life.

The first day we met her she pulled her bed across your enclosure ,and to this day whenever she can she will grab her blanket from her crate and run away with it! Too cute!

The Vet marvels at her beautiful colors and she kept all her white markings right down to the tip of her tail. She is a healthy and well dispositioned canine because of the meticulous care, given to all your pups.

I have included a few pics she is a beauty! She is 22 lbs. and maintains that weight.

It is a blessing to own one of your pups. You are a valuable gift to the world of dogs.

Feel free to use any verse or pics!

Best Wishes

Daisy & Augie

Dear Patricia,

I just wanted to write a reviews and thank you for our wonderful Bella Pups miniature Goldendoodles. Daisy (F1) is now 9 years old and Augie (F1b) will be 3 years old in August. As you can see in the photos, both dogs are healthy, friendly, and very happy. In two of these photos they are waiting their turn at the doggy spa for grooming. In the other photo, they are on our way home after being groomed. Thank you for providing us with our beautiful furry spoiled children.

Lucy

Hi Patricia,

Hope all is well with you and your family. We just wanted to share a few recent photos of Lucy as she reaches her upcoming 6 month birthday.

She is now shy of 10 pounds. Lucy received her first haircut for the summer which has helped me search for ticks since she just loves being outdoors and going for walks. We continued with training from the "Puppy Kindergarten" class and are now attending a class called "Family Manners". We are working on a longer stay, leaving it and heeling. We take Lucy with us whenever we are able so she gets many compliments and she really makes people smile all the time.

She is most loved and is just a joyful addition to our lives.

All the best,

Deb and Rich T.

Louie

Patricia

Hi Patricia! Hoping all is well with you and your family. Wanted to send a quick update now that Louie is all grown up! He's a whopping 80.3 lbs at 1.5 years old. This dog is strong as an ox! We joke he could pull a sleigh and I think he actually could. He recently completed a 5-month obedience training program at Alpha & Omega in Moorestown. We were there with him twice a week and he learned a variety of commands, proper leash walking, and how to heel. Attached is a photo of us at his graduation. Louie tags along with us on almost every trip we take. He's been to the Poconos, Maryland, Virginia, and frequent trips to Ocean City to name a few. Our friends and family can't get over what a joy he is to be around, always greeting everyone with a smile, plenty of tail wags and licks.

Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts. We couldn't imagine our lives without this sweet, loving dog in it!

Sincerely,

Dave & Pinky

Chewy

Hi Patricia,

It has been so much fun with “Chewy” over the last 2 months. My grandsons love him and Chewy loves them. He has gotten all his shots and had his first grooming😊 I am attaching some photos of Chewy and with Chewy and my grandsons. His personality is awesome. Very friendly ❤️ Thank you so much for allowing me to share in the love of your puppies.

Hope all is well with you.

Hi Patricia-

Just wanted to send some updated photos of Carter. We got him from you in June 2019 and we couldn't be happier. He is absolutely amazing and the perfect addition to our family. He is loving, sweet, well behaved, and playful. He is wonderful with everyone he meets, especially kids. Carter is the best, and we cannot thank you enough for all you do!!

Coconut

Hi Patricia!

Here are a couple of pictures of our little girl. She is loving the outdoors, cuddles, my nephews, and so much more. We could not be happier with our Coconut (this was the name we decided on)! I hope all is well with you and your family.

Best Regards,

Emmy Rose

Hi Patricia,

We often comment how lucky we were to pick up our pup just in time and before this craziness really hit. On that note I wanted to send some photos of our growing Emmy Rose. She is just a sweet and easy going personality. You couldn’t have better matched us. She loves our two daughters and especially loves to go on short walks saying hello to everyone and anyone. She is one and a half now and a sweet loving playful pup.

I hope you are well and thank you again for our sweet girl.

Sunshine

Hi Patricia

I am finally getting around to sending this long overdue note. Our lives have not been the same since we picked up Sunshine on December 22nd. She is an amazing puppy! We can't thank you and Bella Pups enough for getting her off to a good start. At 7 months, she is now 25 lbs. We had her spayed last month and she recovered quickly, although the fur is still growing in. Here are a few pics for you to enjoy, and thank you again!

Louie

Hi Patricia!

I just wanted to reach out to let you know how much we are in LOVE with our Louie. We picked him up on 4/3, the day before Easter and he adjusted very well. Slept wonderfully in the crate from day 1 and has had very few accidents and none recently. He is extremely smart and loving and has the best temperament. He does great in the car and wasn't phased by recent thunderstorms there were extremely loud.

We connected with another family who also adopted a Bella Pup the week after we brought Louie home. We live very close to one another and the puppies had their first play date on Memorial Day Weekend. It was so cute to watch them run around and play with each other. I will attach a picture of them. Louie is the smaller one on the Right and Alfie on the left. I will be sure to send future updates and pictures!

Kind Regards,

Michelle T.

Remy

Hi Patricia,

I just wanted to send a quick check in on Remy. She’s doing great and we absolutely adore her. I have started some training with her - sit, down and roll over. It’s not a perfect science yet, but she is getting there. Today my in-laws came over and they absolutely loved her. My father in law spent a lot of time with her in the backyard. He is in love. Thank you so much for all the care you gave to these pups. It’s the start of a journey that we are so excited to continue!!

Jill

Lucky

Hi Patricia,

I hope this message finds you well and that you had a lovely Mother's Day. I’m just touching base to let you know that we celebrated Lucky’s 1st birthday last week on May 5th and wanted to share a few photos of the festivities - enjoy! You should know that we think she is the cutest, sweetest, smartest pup EVER and we absolutely adore her - she has brought such joy to us all!

Daisy

Hi Patricia!

I hope you and family are all well. Here are a few pics of Daisy girl and I thought you would get a smile seeing her in her rainy day slicker!! She is a little cutie and smart, as well as a fierce defender of her home turf. I saw your recent litter on the web page and they are so beautiful. You are an incredible dog lover & breeder and anyone who is fortunate enough to be able to own a pup from you is truly blessed as we were, especially as you learned the story of how we found you and the numerous coincidences on the way!

Stay well and best wishes for Easter & Mother’s Day.

Robin

HI Patricia,

We cannot begin to express our gratitude to you and Erik for this angel puppy. She is healthy, affectionate, and intelligent thanks to your care and breeding. We could not imagine life without her. Good news! We have another puppy from Bella Pups in our family. This past Dec. 2020, our son Dave & Daugher-in-law Pinky picked up Louie, their beautiful Golden Retriever puppy. Thank you for enriching all of our lives.

Harley

Hi Patricia

Hope all is well by you especially with this crazy year. One year ago today we picked up Harley from Darla and Dudleys Jan 12, 2020 litter. Harley is an absolute dream. You are not kidding when you said your puppies are just about potty trained. Harley had one accident when we brought her home and that was it. She loves everyone she meets and loves to play with other dogs. Little did we know when we picked her up that we would be on lock down a week later but she definitely made this crazy year so much better here are a few pictures we wanted to share. Thank you for the perfect dog!

Finley

Hi Patricia,

I wanted to share some photos of Finley reuniting with his sister, Honey, this past week. They played for about an hour and had the best time ever - it was amazing getting to see the two of them reunite! We're so happy that Honey lives two streets away from us and that the dogs can play together often!

Finley is also doing great - he is such a smart, well behaved puppy and we love him so much already. We can't get over the fact of how well potty trained he is already, and that he pretty much sleeps through the night. I'll be sure to send another update in the coming months.

Hope you're well, and stay safe 🙂

Jameson

HI Patricia,

Today marks one year since we picked up Jameson from you. From the moment we left your house he has brought such joy into our lives especially throughout such a troublesome year. He is the most loving, smart and funniest pup I know. He means the world to us and makes our family complete. This couldn’t have been possible without you so I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts! Sincerely,

Sophia

Harper

Patricia,

Our Harper is amazing!!! We can’t thank you enough, he has been the best puppy. He is so sweet, mostly calm (haha he’s a puppy right?) and super well behaved. After a couple of days of a few accidents here or there, it was no time before he knew to give a little bark at the back slider to go out. I think it was only a couple of weeks before I could leave the crate side open with our bedroom door closed and he would sleep through the night. He loves to chew on your hand/sleeve a lot so we’re working on that. You were NOT lying when you said this guy was a water dog too. He is tub side and trying to get in ever time my daughter is taking her bath. It’s so cute! He’s doing great with the kids and car rides are super easy. He definitely is a spoiled dog too because I think he’s only been alone now for a total of 6 hours since he came home. We can’t get enough of this guy!! We truly are so happy we made this decision to get another dog and made an even better decision to come to you for our boy. Thank u again!!

Keri, John, Jack, and Ellie

Daisy

Hi Patricia,

We have had our sweet Daisy for a month now and I wanted to share some pictures and update you on her progress. She is the most amazing puppy with the sweetest personality! Daisy has been potty trained since the day we brought her home and didn't even have any accidents on these past few snowy days. Daisy is beyond smart! She can sit, lay down, stay, give paw, roll over, and give high fives. Daisy is the perfect addition to our family and she loves playing with all her toys and with her big sister Maggie. We are so very grateful to have Daisy and she sure has stolen our hearts and the hearts of all that have met her!

Fondly,

Cindy

Naala

Hi Patricia,

I hope all is well! Today is Naala’s Gotcha Day! I can’t believe it’s been 1 full year since we picked her up from you. It’s been the most amazing year of our lives! Naala is the most perfect dog. She is so very loving, sweet, calm, playful, understanding, patient, and kind. She shares all her toys and treats with her friends. She has the best temper and is loving to a fault. She gets so attached to all our family and friends and doesn’t like it at all when we say goodbye. And when she meets her favorite people & pups again, she cannot stand still with joy! Naala has the biggest heart of all!

She is a very happy and heathy dog, and we are extremely thankful for her! We happily recommend you to anyone who is looking for a pup.

Best,

Pejana & Varun

Oakley

My family adopted Oakley in May from Jasmine and Bear's litter! Oakley is the perfect fit for our family. He is such a sweet, loveable, spunky, quirky, and beautiful boy! We could not love him more, and he makes our days so much more exciting and joyful. Linked below are pictures of him from the past 10 months! Thank you so much for all that you do and for our perfect Oakley boy!

Love,

Kayley S. and family and Oakley!

I hope you’ve been well! I wanted to send you an update on our girl Ella, from Darla and Dudley’s litter almost a year ago! Ella is the sweetest, friendliest pup I’ve ever seen. She makes everyone she sees smile! She got her potty training down exceptionally fast as well as many tricks 🙂

Thank you so much again for the seamless process of bringing her home with us. She has been such an amazing addition to our lives!

Bodie

Hi Patricia!

I just wanted to write and let you know how much we loveeee Bodie/Bodhi. He is the SWEETEST puppy and soooo loving and such a great temperament. People comment on how adorable he is all the time and everyone from our vet or groomer talks about his wonderful friendly temperament. He has been such a wonderful addition to our family. I have to be honest, after we brought him home, I had complete second guessing and wasn’t sure it was the right decision but now I couldn’t imagine life without him. He’s been on TWO 12 hours drives and also a flight for the holidays and he is the perfect puppy! He goes with the flow and is so smart and kind! Thank you for allowing us to find him!

Happy New Year!

Freyja

Hello Patricia,

Wow!!! we are just as thrilled as can be with our sweet girl Freyja. You were so right, she is an amazing puppy. She has slept through the night since day one, she has only had a couple of potty accidents they were totally our fault. She is learning her commands so easily. She absolutely loves to play outside chasing balls and squeaky toys. She is learning "come" and "Sit". She has mastered the bells on the door to go outside but sometimes that is because she wants to play!! She has her "sassy" "bitey" time in the evening but can mostly be redirected to a toy. We just love her and it seems as though she has really taken to us too.

Thanks again for such a sweet, smart, darling puppy!

Just wanted to send you some pictures of Steve- he is a cutie 💕🐾 He’s been REALLY great- eats all of his food, minimal accidents (in fact he usually sits by the door when he needs to go out), interacts great with the kids. It’s evident that he was well trained, cared for and loved by you and your family.

Thank you so much,

Winnie is a DREAM - truly a dream. She has the most perfect disposition, and is so loving and sweet. We are all OBSESSED, as is every person who lays eyes on her or encounters her sweet personality. I’ve shared your name and contact info with countless friends and strangers in Westfield.

He knows how to sit, give both paws, lay down, roll over and he rings his bells when he has to do potty! He sleeps in his crate every night and only cried the first night!

Thank you so much, he is the best!!

Rosie

Dear Patricia,

Please include it on your review page.

I can’t say enough positive things.

She just gets along with everyone, dogs, humans, new places, new sounds, new smells.

An absolute pleasure to be around.

Oh and she LOVES the water, jumps in the tub with my son any chance she gets, she is going to love this spring and summer and my aunt and uncles, pond, creek and pool!

Were going to have so much fun! Could she be any cuter?

Archie

Hi Patricia,

It’s been one year (today) with Archie! We are thankful for him everyday, and we are thankful for you, as you allowed us to bring this sweet sweet boy into our hearts and home.

One year ago we brought you home and you stole our hearts! Since then you’ve stole our bed, couches, socks, towels, and shoes... but we wouldn’t have it any other way! It’s been the best year with our best dood! What was life before Archie?!❤️

Hope all is well!

Bailey

Hi Patricia,

I just wanted to thank you for all you do to prepare your pups for their new home. Bailey is a dream. He is so loving and smart. He rings the bells when he needs to go, although sometimes he just rings them to go out and play. He slept straight through the first night and has learned how to sit, give his paw, and stay in the week we have had him. We are so grateful and happy he is in our life.

Millie & Sophie

HI Patricia,

Thank you so much for both of our Goldendoodles! Millie has been great and her big sister, Sophie loves her!!! You do such an amazing job with preparing them for their future family. You truly are the best!

With love,

Brooklyn

Hello Patricia,

We wanted to give you an update on the new "boss of the family" Brooklyn!

His journey home to NY on July 20th was perfect. He began to show his loving personality in the car and continues today.

Everyday is a new adventure for him and us. His potty training was less than 3 weeks. Yes, there were some accidents, but that was due to my lack of attention to his body language.🙂

He is doing well and growing quick. He's at 27 lbs now so we anticipate he'll probably reach 35 at adult. We will see in May 2020.

Thanks for making the process easy and comfortable. It made the transition to owning a dog easy and stress free. Here's a few pics of Bklyn.

Take care and have a great holiday season,

Rueben

Augie & Daisy

Dear Patricia,

Allen and I want to thank you so much for our new puppy, Augie. He is just so sweet and adorable. Daisy seems to really love him. Both Daisy’s and Augie’s tails are wagging in delight and Daisy does the play stance for Augie to play with her.

Augie has not had an accident in the house. He is peeing and pooping outside and even rang the bells to go out. Augie slept in his soft sided crate last night and he was calm.

We are just so happy with Augie. Thanks again from Allen, Daisy, and me for being such a wonderful breeder.

Fondly,
Shelly and Allen G

Remi

Hi Patricia

I just wanted to reach out and give you an update on our puppy we got from you in March. Remi is about 13 1/2 lbs and absolutely wonderful. My vet thinks she will only get to 16-17 lbs which is perfect with me. She has such a wonderful personality and is loved by all who are around her. We our so pleased with her and could not be happier. I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful job you did with the breeding and raising her for her first 8 weeks.

Best regards

Charlie

Hi Patricia -

I'm sure you are super busy, but I wanted to share a recent photo of Charlie (born Nov 18, 2018)! The pic makes him look bigger than he is.... lol, but he's about 45lbs and an absolute love. I can honestly say he is the sweetest, smartest, most even-tempered dog I've ever met. He reminds me of a giant stuffed animal! We are so lucky to have Charlie as part of our family and we could not love him more. I will continue to pass your name along as well!

Have a nice weekend!

Sincerely,
Heather C.

Theo

Hi Patricia!

Theo is doing well! He got his first puppy grooming and he looks great. He learned how to sit and is well behaved. He loves meeting new people and playing with my friends dogs. I took him to work the other day and he loved hanging out with my clients dog. Hope all is well with you.

Honey

We are so pleased with our puppy Honey! Patricia does an amazing job at making us feel prepared for our new puppy and ensuring that all her puppies go home to good families. When we picked up Honey and met Patricia, we were blown away. Patricia was very professional, had a very clean home, and created a warm setting for us to bond with Honey. Patricia really works hard at doing her best to train her puppies and have them be set up for good behavior. We are in love with Honey. She is so sweet and such a fun dog to have. Honey is all play and loves her Daddy. She loves children and we are so thankful for her!

Hudson

Hi Patricia!

Hudson has been the most wonderful puppy and we are so lucky to have him! We have been carrying him around In the bag below and he has transitioned to city life! He already is probably 90 percent potty trained and sleeps every night in his crate from from 10-6am with no accidents! He’s so loving and calm and we can’t wait to make him our therapy dog in the hospital:)

Thank you for the bundle of joy! He brings so much happiness to everyone that meets him!

Cami & Kona

Hi PATRICIA:

I wanted to thank you for both of our mini golden doodles. Cami (F1) from Dam Tallula’s litter in 2013 and Kona (F1B) from Dam Chloe’s and Red Rascals Litter this year. We are in love with both of them and they both immediately became part of our family and have such sweet temperaments.

Here are some recent pictures of Kona and one with both.

Penny

Hi there!

This is Amanda who brought home Penny on January 26th! She has been a blessing every day since we picked her up! It snowed where we live basically every week until the beginning of March and she LOVED the snow but is definitely loves the warmer days we’ve been having here. Her personality is one of kind and she’s so smart! She loves running around in our back yard and letting us know what’s on her mind! She’s in great health and LOVES going to the vet. She gets so upset when the techs and the vet walk out of the room!(one of the pictures is her sitting at the door). I wanted to reach out and update you on Penny. Thank you so much for this angel I love her more than anything.

Love,
Amanda and Penny

Ellie

Hi Patricia,

Formally known as "Gracie", we decided on our way home that she's an Ellie. And let me tell you she’s the light of our lives. She's doing great so far. Of course we have our hands full but she’s bringing us so much joy and laughter.

She has already learned to sit and she rings the bell to go outside. She's been eating breakfast, lunch and dinner. She is learning us and we are learning her. She definitely knows we are her humans 🙂 She is such a smart, sweet little girl. I want to thank you for raising her and passing the torch.

Archie

Patricia,

Hope all is well! We have had Archie for a little over two months now and I can not remember life before him! He is the sweetest, most lovable boy. He is weighing in at 25lbs and growing quickly. Archie loves to play with any toy he can get his paws on, and loves to go for walks with us. He learned tricks so quickly and is very smart.

I couldn’t imagine our home without him. We are so grateful for him and for you! We recommend you to anyone we can.

Toby

Hi Patricia,

Toby has brought us so much joy already. He instantly connected with all of us. He slept the whole way home from your house last weekend, which made us feel so comfortable. He eats well and sleeps through the night. He is perfect in every way, and just beautiful. Thursday, at the vet, he was calm and sweet. He just has an adorable personality...playful, loving and fun. He especially loves toys!!! We are all just in love and are so grateful to you. I will keep you posted and send you pictures.

Thank you💙

Cosmo

Patricia,

Happy New Year! Here are some pictures of Cosmo (our baby boy) we love him so much. He adjusted immediately and he is such a good boy. He also gets along with our cat. He had his first vet visit he is now 14 pounds and healthy. He met his cousin which is the golden doodle in the picture who also came from one of your litters. I will send you more pictures soon.

Hope all is well!

Happy New Year and hope you are doing good. I’m writing this to just let you know that we are really enjoying Oslo with us.

Ducky

Hi Patricia,

Haven’t reached out in a bit, but I wanted to send you a message as ducky is almost a year old now. Honestly I can’t believe how big he’s gotten. He is such a fantastic puppy and every person he meets loves his face and his extremely playful personality. Can’t say enough positive things about the little man! He got neutered a few weeks ago and was so good throughout the recover process. Anyway, just wanted to let you know all is well. Thanks!

Bourbon

Hi Patricia! I hope this email finds you well! It's been a month now since we brought our little guy, Bourbon, home, and I just wanted to reach out to send you a few photos! Bourbon is doing so well! We've had two trips to the vet for shots (all good reports!), he's almost fully potty trained and sleeping through the night! We are really enjoying training him too. Within the first couple of days, he learned how to sit and give us his paw! He also knows how to lay down, and he's even rolled over a couple of times! Still working on that one 🙂 He has adjusted so well, and it truly seemed like he was so comfortable with us from the beginning!

We don't have enough good things to say about Bourbon, and a lot of that credit is owed to you for being an amazing breeder, and so easy and professional to work with. So thank you!! We are just so in love with our sweet little boy!

Thanks again,
Bridget & Dave L.

Hi Patricia!!!

Tomorrow is our Bear’s 5th Birthday and we wanted to share a few pictures with you of our boy. He is truly the sweetest, most gentle lump of love. We are so blessed that he came into our lives through you!

Luna

Hi Patricia!

I want to thank you for our wonderful puppy!!! We just love Luna to pieces! She is such a special puppy... sweet, playful, and easy going. She was also a pleasure to train! We couldn't be happier ♥️

Warmly, Cristina B.

Charlie

Hello Patricia! I just wanted to let you know how well Charlie is doing!! Charlie is almost 4 months old now and getting big fast. He is such a sweet, and smart puppy! He knows how to sit, stay, lay down, speak, give paw, fetch and give kisses! And most importantly, he rings the bell whenever he needs to go potty outside! He fits into our family and our life and we all are so in love with him! Here is some updated pictures of our beautiful Charlie Boy!

Stella

Hi Patricia,

We have had Stella for four weeks now and she is the most amazing puppy! She sleeps through the night, has done great with potty training, and the vet said she is a very healthy little puppy. She is so sweet and loving and everyone constantly stops us to tell us how cute she is and how much she looks like a little teddy bear. She loves playing fetch and snuggling with us; she has brought us so much happiness already! Thank you so much for our new family member!

Alexa & Evan 😊

Stewart

Dear Patricia,

I know it's only been 1 day since we've arrived home with Stewart. But, I must tell you how amazed I am that these two are getting along so well at this early, introductory stage. Ivy (3 years old, and our first from one of your litters) does enjoy a good tug of war with him, but still, is much more gentle than she could be. She is even willing to share her toys with Stewart which is incredible. Ivy is constantly "checking" on him when he is more quiet -- seemingly to make sure all is well. Also, last night -- (Stewart's first away from the litter) -- was not bad at all. He awoke every 3 hours to potty, but then went right back to sleep. In my opinion, their behavior and temperament is a credit to you and the dogs you breed. We are so fortunate to have found you, and shall continue to recommend you as a breeder.

It was so good to see you . . .

Take care, Kathy

Misty

Hi Patricia, I just thought I’d give you one more update on Misty. She is SO sweet and affection and amazingly easy to train. I can’t believe how quickly she picks up new commands! She is 13.4 pounds now at just over five months old. The vet thinks she may remain below 25 pounds, which would be completely fine with us! She and Nilla love each other so much now. They play several times a day. They love walking together and I’m having fun exploring all the parks with them. Thank you again for all the work you put into socializing the puppies. I know it makes a difference!

Diane U.

Rex

We hope all is well. We want to thank you so much for the wonderful experience and for being such a great breeder! Our baby is perfect! I could not have asked for a better puppy. He is so sweet, loving and extremely smart. Rex fills our household with so much JOY. We can't thank you enough. Thank you for your part in our journey!

Rosie

Hi Patricia!!

Can’t believe this cutie turned 2 in March!! She is truly a joy and so much a part of our lives! Thank you again for such beautiful pups... both Annie and Rosie !

Chef

Hi Patricia,

I hope you are well! Since tomorrow is Chef’s 4-month birthday, we wanted to check in and let you know how amazing he’s doing and how much we love him! He’s fully potty trained now and rings the bell hanging from our doorknob to let us know when he needs to go outside. He’s made so many doggy and human friends in the neighborhood, so he does ring the bell from time to time just to go outside and play- especially if there is snow outside, which is his absolute favorite. He also loves going to puppy play group and the multiple dog runs in our neighborhood. He’s been sleeping through the night for the most part since the third day he’s been with us.

Lots of love,

Carly, Michael, and Chef

Macie

Hi Patricia,

Thanks so much for your note! This is Macie and she has been great! Everyone loves her to pieces!! She is getting so big so fast! She loves exploring the yard and loves sitting on laps!

Hope you are well!

KODA aka Frankie

HI Patricia, I just wanted to send you a note to let you know your Frankie ada Koda is a wonderful addition to the family. He's the sweetest puppy and we are over the moon with him. He's doing fantastic!

By Day 2 we taught him to ring the bell to go outside. He loves going ouside in his fenced in yard and getting to run around. He's so smart. He's doing great with potty ouside. It's only when we miss a clue that he might have an accident. At night from the first night he did so well and he is sleeping in our bedroom and has done fantastic with that as well. He had his vet visit today and all is great!

Just want to say THANK YOU so much for giving him such a great start. He is the perfect puppy and we adore him!!!

Pippa

Hi Patricia, I know you said keep in touch and I have been so remiss about our precious Pippa. We got her two years ago in December - a baby of Sadie and Casey. Jeanne H. who has Dublin, recommended you. We live in Summit and my friends in the Boston area got doodles from you from the same litter about a year later, they tell me based on the ideal disposition and behavior they saw in Pippa.

She has been the best imaginable dog. She is 30 lbs, still soft as velvet and beyond obedient. She walks off leash and never leaves my side. We have a cut-out in our fence and she wanders in and out but never out of our front yard. She goes to take a look, and comes on back!

Our 4 children adore her. My reluctant son who cried when we brought her home, loves her the most. Except for my 16 year old daughter, I don’t think there is a love greater in this world than she has for Pippa. She plays so well with other dogs, we did puppy training which conditioned her well to others, and she had been in perfect health since we came home.

Thanks again.

Lola

Hi Patricia,

I just wanted to give you an update on Lola (Roxy’s litter). We are so in love with Lola. She is the cutest and sweetest little puppy. She loves playing with the kids. The kids ask me to put Lola in each of their beds every morning so they can wake up to her trying to kiss them:) She has slept through the night every night! She woke up at 4am the first week or so, but now she wakes up when I wake up around 6 or 7. She spends the day with my mom when I work so she has been pretty good with potty training too. The past 2 days she has discovered digging in the dirt😳 she loves running around outside in the backyard in the rain too! This week I saw a neighbor walking his 2 mini golden doodles. One was light almost white and one was the same red color as Lola. After talking to him I found out that he got both his dogs through you also!! They are around 2 years old.

I just wanted to let you know how much happiness Lola has brought our family. My son told me he can’t stop thinking about her because he loves her so much. I have a feeling a 2nd dog will be in our future!

Thank you!!!

Sophie

HI Patricia, I just wanted to update you about how happy we are with Sophie from the July 14th litter. She fit right in with our other dog Callie and also loves to play with my sister and parent’s dogs! We asked you to guide us to a puppy that was friendly. That’s exactly what she is. She loves all dogs and is so sweet! We are enjoying every minute with her!!! Thank you so much!!!!!!! Kathy D.

Yaffa

Hi Patricia,

I hope you are well and had a great holiday and new years. We were away and didnt get to send our holiday photo in but wanted to let you know how in love we are with our now four and a half month old Yaffa. She has been amazing and we legitimately get stopped in the street by strangers who want to meet her. We always send them to you! Take care.

Rigby

Hi Patricia,

Wanted to let you know that Rigby is an absolutely amazing puppy! We are completely smitten with him. He’s so calm, smart, obedient, social, and has a great disposition and personality. People comment all the time on what an exceptional dog he is and some of our friends have said they would want a dog like him in a heartbeat. Of course we have given them your name! Miriam and Beth

Sonny

Hello Patricia,

This is one of your pups we bought from you(Sonny ) . I can’t even begin to tell you how great he is. His temperament is unbelievable. He is almost human lol. The joy and love he brings to our family is off the charts.

Thank you from the Carmine C. and family

Bentley

Hello Patricia, This is the Romeo family. Just getting asked again where I got beautiful Bentley and another person interested in getting a golden retriever and of course I always brag about you and your services and dedication to golden retrievers. So I figured I need to send you more pictures of Bentley and how amazing he truly is. I can’t believe he just turned 5 where did the years go. What a blessing to have in our lives!

We all love Bentley so much and so does the neighborhood as well. He is just always the happiest dog and just absolutely amazing. Loves car rides and going swimming and just always being close to the family. My family and I always talk about picking him up at your house and how amazing and loving the entire experience was. I know I wish the time would slow down with him. I will keep in touch.

Best regards,
Romeo family

Teddy

Hi Patricia,

Hope this email finds you well! I have been meaning to call you to tell you how lucky we feel to have gotten such a great dog.

We are beyond obsessed with Teddy and he has now become the most loved member is the family!

Our home truly is complete and I cannot thank you enough. I have given your name and number to several people already and we just may want another in the near future!

Hope you enjoy these pictures to see how he has grown.

Have a wonderful Fourth and summer!

Cubby

Hi Patricia, I just searched your name in my mail account and read the last message you had sent me back in September, I guess I was busy at the time and it slipped my mind to reply about the testimonial, we'd love to be apart of it! My father and I were talking the other night and he said "I really wish I could thank Patricia everyday for Cubby!" the little bear has become the highlight of our lives 🙂

I know I've thanked you numerous times in my past emails but I don't think I could ever thank you enough! CubbyBear has become my daily smile and continues to be the love of my life. I never thought I'd love an animal as much as I love him! 🙂 🙂 🙂

I attached some great pictures! including Cubby's first haircut! Cubby's first Christmas! Cubby's first snow! and a few others that make you smile so wide when you see that face!

By the way, when I was in PetSmart two weeks or so ago a girl stopped me and was so curious about Cubby and was complimenting me on how beautiful he was, she asked for your information.. I gave her your number and told her to google "Patricia Hess Pennington NJ Bella Pups" 🙂

Hope you and your doggies are doing well!

Sincerely, Elizabeth Gushue

Mason

Hello Patricia! I recently recommended a friend to you, her name is Diana P. Her and her family are getting an f1b goldendoodle from you in April. I had nothing but good things to say about you and your dogs. 2 years ago I got my f1b Mason from you and my family got our golden retriever Hudson from you! I wanted to send pictures and show you how adorable they are. We could not have asked for better dogs! They are so loving and caring, they complete our family 🙂

Sincerely,

Hudson

Westin

Hi Patricia- we are so in love with Westin. He came from your oct 22nd 2016 f1b litter. Today marks his 4 month birthday and he is doing wonderful. We took him to the beach last weekend and he absolutely loved it. Watching all the kids play at the playground, playing with other puppies on the beach and going to the dog park.

Thanks again for giving us such a wonderful family dog. Pictures attached. He is such a cutie and loving life with us. So many people have asked us where we got him from so i might be sending clientele your way! They were so impressed with his temperament and love for kids. Keep doing what your doing!

all the best,

Ludwig

Dear Patricia,

Good Afternoon! I hope all is well!

Just a quick update, one to say THANK YOU for making our pick-up day so seamless and pleasant. You run a fantastic operation, everything was so organized and it made for a really great experience. Ludwig has been an absolute DELIGHT. He continued to be his loving affectionate self from the moment we brought him home. He took to potty training like a CHAMP (was using pads in less than 24-hrs, and accidents are minimal and infrequent). He loves his rope and darth vader toys, he's eating and sleeping well - we couldn't be happier, he is very special to us (and has already reached massive popularity via pictures on facebook!). One friend even inquired about your contact details, so I may have an upcoming referral for you!

Second, we had our first vet visit this morning - all well and good, a clean bill of health all around (and Ludwig was VERY well behaved - not even a whimper! So proud of him!).

Thanks again for everything!

Sincere Regards,
Luke and Leon

Jiffy as a puppy

"My husband and children begged for a dog for many years, but I was leary about getting one. It seemed like it would be a lot of extra work and wear and tear on our house. When my husband told me about finding Patricia Hess and about her wonderful reputation for breeding golden retrievers, I decided it was now or never to get a dog. This was one of the best decisions I ever made. Our golden, Jiffy, is the love of our lives. She is gentle, beautiful and incredibly smart. She was house trained within a few weeks and has never chewed on any of our furniture or belongings. She listens to any command from anyone in our familly and stays within our yard at all times. She is gentle with small children and rarely barks. Patricia said that many of her past customers raved about the wonderful dispositions of her goldens, and I concur 100 percent! "

Maria H, Chesterfield, NJ

Holly

"When we stepped into Patricia's house to see if we wanted one of the pups she had to offer, we knew right away that we came to the right place. She has such a loving, warm environment for the pups and we truly feel that having Patricia as their surrogate Mom for a little while has definately contributed to Holly's loving and unique personality".

Mike and Loretta F.

Tucker

"From the moment I came across Patricia's website, Bella Pups, I knew I wanted one of her puppies. It was obvious she had a passion for Goldens. We exchanged numerous emails and I appreciated Patricia's warm and friendly personality. Patricia was able to answer all of our questions, making the experience a pleasant one. Tucker is an amazing puppy with a loving personality. He makes our family complete."

Lisa A

Henley

"Could not be happier with both our dogs. They both have an amazing temperament and are absolutely beautiful. It was a pleasure to have found Pat, she couldn't have been more helpful and it was very obvious her puppies have the very best start to life. We would definitely buy from her again."

The Willmer Family

Connor

"Our experience with Patricia and Bella Pups couldn't have been more pleasant! During the selection process Patricia let us spend ample time with all the pups - which made our choice even harder since they were all so wonderful! They were playful, happy and most importantly, comfortable with me and my children handling them even though we'd just met them. It's obvious that Patricia prepared them for the change from mother and siblings to humans, as our Connor transitioned quite easily.

Patricia also spent time going over the finer details of what it takes to raise a Golden - eating, training, grooming, etc. And on the day we came to get Connor, she told us not to hesitate to contact her with any questions or concerns. She truly cares about the pups she breeds.

Connor is just over 12 weeks-old now and we couldn't be more pleased with our decision. He is full of energy, took to his training right away - two weeks now without a house accident! - and has been a wonderful addition to our family. Even the cat has started enjoying his playfulness! We wouldn't hesitate to purchase another Golden Retriever from Patricia and Bella Pups again.

Thank you Patricia!"
