Happy Families
Kind words from families who welcomed gentle, joyful Papillon companions into their homes.
From the first phone call, we felt like we were talking to people who truly love this breed. Our puppy arrived calm, healthy and already used to a leash.

They answered every question we had, even the silly ones. Two years later our papillon is still the sweetest, most easygoing dog we have owned.

The ground transport option made it so easy. Our puppy arrived relaxed and ready to explore his new home the same day.

We had never owned a toy breed before and weren’t sure what to expect. From our first call with Papillon Paws, it was clear how much thought goes into matching a puppy to a family. Marlowe came home already comfortable on a leash, sleeping through the night, and completely unfazed by our two cats. What struck us most was how calm he was during the flight — you could tell he’d been handled and loved from day one. Two years later, he’s still the gentlest, most attentive little dog we could have asked for. We get compliments on his temperament constantly.

Otto is everything we hoped for. We wanted gentle, quick to learn, and endlessly good company. The whole process felt personal from start to finish.

Careful, honest communication and a puppy who arrived happy and healthy. Sable has been the easiest addition to our home.

We’d been on a waitlist with another breeder for months with no real communication, so working with Papillon Paws was a relief. They were upfront about timelines, sent photos as Hazel grew, and helped us pick a delivery option that worked with our schedule. She arrived by flight nanny, calm and curious, and settled into our home within a day. What we appreciate most, looking back, is how unhurried the whole process felt. Nobody pressured us to commit before we were ready, and it showed in how well Hazel has adjusted to our family.

Choosing a breeder felt overwhelming until we found Papillon Paws. They answered every question honestly, including a few they probably got tired of hearing, and never rushed us toward a decision. Percy’s ground transport ran exactly on schedule, and the driver kept us updated the whole way. What we didn’t expect was how much ongoing support we’d get — a care sheet, a follow-up call the first week, and an open invitation to reach out anytime. Percy has grown into a smart, funny little shadow who follows my daughter everywhere. We couldn’t have asked for a better fit.
