Murphy and her family are lovely people, easy to talk to, and very fair. They are not breeders. They are very clear about their mission with puppies and socializing them and finding them good homes, which is very admirable when there are way too many puppies already! Our sweet girl was exactly as they described her personality to be and she was almost completely potty trained at 10 weeks. She was sent home with a bed she loves and lots of other goodies. Thanks!

We adopted Charlotte (purple collar) a couple weeks ago and changed her name to River. She has been great! We were welcomed into their home and given a lot of information about each puppy and their personalities. We weren't rushed at all, even when it took me forever to decide! Their kids helped talk about the dogs and their personalities too. It was a wonderful experience picking out a puppy. I would highly recommend getting a puppy from them!

I adopted 'Spencer James' (micro golden doodle) now known as Grandpa, from Murphy and her family just this past weekend. The process felt organic and wholesome. The whole family was able to tell me about his personality, his siblings (he was the last to be adopted), and his medical history (he has a bit of a knee problem, but they were SUPER upfront about it AND how to take care of it.)

Grandpa came to me 100% potty trained and familiar with basic commands like 'leave it' and 'sit.'

I have gotten to take him into all kinds of settings and he is very well adjusted, loves all kinds of people, is fabulous with kids and other pets. I really can't say enough good things.

I lost a dog in November of last year and I was very anxious about this process and having a new dog, I am so glad to have found this amazing family and their gorgeous farm and in the future would absolutely adopt from them again!

The process for adding Ward renamed Rocco to our family was great. Murphy had an amazing detailed description of each dog’s personality and habits. She was connected to each puppy. During our visit with the puppies you could see these traits were accurate described. Toby and Murphy allowed us time with various groups and even suggested some groupings so we could see the puppies personalities come through.
They made choosing the puppy stress free. We never felt rushed or pressured.
After coming home with Rocco it was even more obvious that they KNEW their puppies.
All these things are nice but the best part is knowing the at these puppies are being raised an active family with children. They are being well loved and cared for.

UPDATE 6/29/23: our sweet Emmy was found to have an eye problem found commonly in dogs that are over breed and/or from puppy mills. We did not get to see the parents of our dog as this seems to be a halfway home between the breeder and owner. I would be cautious before getting this breed from them as there is definitely a genetic problem. She is still the best little dog and we love her so much! This should be known though and it was not told to us when we got her. They also don’t take the dogs to the vet before you get them so there is not medical check for health before you buy… just their word which didn’t pan out to be true.(I added a photo of the eye- it’s the last photo)

We found the sweetest little “peekapoo” (Pekingese/toy poodle) puppy here **possibly a miniature poodle as the vet believes she will be big). They don’t have the parents or any official paperwork for the puppies proving the breed types. Also sizing is a very big gap for estimating. It’s really quite a gamble but the family was very kind. Wish they had more concrete information on the puppies/breeders but the girl we took home just got back from her first vet check and is healthy and very smart! Already potty trained at 10wks and sleeps with our littles in the bed throughout the whole night. We actually went back to their site to try and scoop up our new girl puppy’s brother the day after we brought her home but he was already set to be with another family per the website. We would definitely go back to them if we wished to get another designer dog in the future. Again, this family was very kind and welcoming. They let us change our appointment day and time to try and help us not loss out on a puppy. (They do not take deposits or hold dogs). They want you to come meet the puppy’s abs pick from their home (I do love this… just very hard for none locals).
Hope all this info helps. If you’re looking at one of their puppy’s … do it!

We were looking specifically for a Pomeranian puppy to be a companion to my Mother in Law. The Fool For You Farm stepped up and provided us with the best experience I could have ever hoped for. From the time I reached out about the Pomeranian puppy named Clara, through meeting Murphy and Clara on FaceTime, including the communications afterwards when we decided to take the trip from Jericho, VT to Lawrence, MI. We knew the policy they have about not holding puppies and they kept me posted about when people came by to look at the puppies and whether Clara was still available. When my travel friends and I arrived it was a very warm and inviting environment and such a pleasant experience. We brought the baby home who traveled the 850 miles like a champ and my Mother in Law (and my Pomeranian, Taz) could not be any happier. My mother in law is overjoyed with her little Clarabelle and is excited to have her very first puppy. There are firsts at 76 😁.

Murphy and her wonderful family provided me with a lovely miniature schnauzer. The price was very reasonable, and the dog walked out of their home with potty training 99% done. Adoption process was stress-free and efficient. Seeing the options on their website -> Scheduling a visit -> Entering a no pressure zone with an opportunity to meet each pup and learn a bit of their personality. I was given a cozy bed, a toy, some food and treats. all the documents needed (pre vet visit and first few shots included), and a lovely dog. I truly recommend Fool For You Farm, thank you!

Very lovely family that raised such fun loving and obedient pups! Kids were involved in the upbringing which makes the puppies better with kids in the future. The Meisenheimers were up front, honest, and thorough about the puppies personalities and health. They started potty training and gave me tips to have a good first night with him. I appreciated the time they took with us when we first met. I would highly recommended!
