Rocky Top K-9'S, West Plains MO

First of all, I haven’t met you and I definitely WON’T be meeting you. I also don’t believe everything I read on the internet but I do believe substantiated reports from the HSMO. Eight times on the Top 100 Worst Puppy Mills - you must be so proud! People like you make me ashamed to be from a state with such weak and ineffective animal cruelty laws. But the day is coming. And it’s coming for YOU!

Was looking for a reputable breeder for a puppy. This place is not it and should be shut down. Reviews mention they are repeatedly on the humane society’s horrible hundred. After searching they have been on there 8x! It’s possible they have been “state inspected and licensed for 22 years”. Being inspected doesn’t make you reputable and apparently you can have a license and still treat your animals badly and not follow proper breeding guidelines so doesn’t mean much.

They are featured in the horrible hundred report, this is a puppy mill, they breed dogs and leave them in kennels, they are treated horribly. Puppy mills should be shut down everywhere

Warning: puppy mill. She is on the horrible hundred worst breeders in the US. She has made this list 8 times. Offenses documented to the state include: an emaciated mother without food, cockroaches, excessive feces, dogs kept in decrepit conditions, 200 sick dogs with diarrhea, underweight, living in poor conditions.
Look it up. It’s public record.

Way too many breeds! No one breeder can specialize in so many breeds. Those giving
great reviews must not care about breeding conditions or the puppies' parents, their health, their bloodlines, etc. This place is a nightmare. Missouri's finest puppy mill!

PUPPY MILL.this breeder has been exposed for keeping their puppies in piles of fences in small cages with cockroaches, adopt dont shop!

I have known Ellen for almost 2 decades now. I have purchased a few pups from her and if I could have it my way I’d have a lot lot more! I must say her pups are happy well fed and over all very healthy. She goes up and beyond what most breeder do for the pups and “Us” the customer! She keeps me informed on my pup’s development from day one all the way til I can finally bring my baby home!
I am the proud owner of two 10 month old Boxer males (brothers) they are the best. They keep me company and bring me love everyday. I don’t know what I would do without my boys and Ellen for being the best Breeder I know!
Thank You Ellen

Kind Regards,
Cindy Allen

Puppy mill that treats animals more like objects than living beings. PLEASE do your research if you are even thinking about considering “purchasing” from them. Good, reputable breeders do not operate like this. If you don’t want to adopt, that’s fine - but make sure you’re purchasing a dog from a responsible breeder who is bettering the breed they specialize in!

Horrible breeder listed on Humane Society of the USs horrible 100 breeders. Please stop using these evil people, they breed dogs over and over and never let them out of the kennels. Making money off of dogs is never right. Breeder please stop torturing your dogs. Embarrassing that this exists in the US.

We love our newest addition to our family. We bought a boxer puppy last Friday and can't be more happy with our new little girl Bella. Great place to get a puppy or dog. Clean kennels, knowledgeable and grooming on site.

This kennel has been on the humane society’s horrible hundred breeder list SEVEN times! They make this list by violating laws. They were reported for thin nursing mothers as well as multiple limping dogs.

We got Noble, our Cavalier, a few weeks ago and he’s doing great! Ellen was so friendly and answered every question we had. We have a happy, heathy, 12 week old puppy thanks to Rocky Top K-9’s. I recommend going to them if you’re in the market for your next companion.

My Olde English Bulldogge pup, Waylon
(aka Max), is turning one year old this weekend. Wanted to wait to review to give full account. He is the joy of my life, ornery streak but very much a lover with a sweet disposition. Will check in with Rocky Top in the next year or so to pick him up a little sister. Extremely pleased with the whole experience. Thanks Rocky Top, he is a beautiful dog and well loved.
