We brought our mini aussiedoodle, Charles, home on Sept. 10, 2021 and he is THRIVING. We are so happy we went with this breeder. There are children in the home who form special relationships with the puppies so they seem to be well socialized. We are so happy!

John David was so wonderful to work with. He offered us to come and see where the puppy we purchased was raised. He had us wait until the puppy was old enough to leave. He didn’t ask for any money until we had our travel plans ready. He has a health guarantee and told us to let him know if anything is discovered. Our vet said our puppy was in perfect health. She is such a joy to us. Thank you John David, you made this experience even more enjoyable!

We had been looking for a pug breeder for several months when we found John and Sarah Zook. When I arrived to see my future puppy playing with the family's children I knew... I had found a breeder who loved pugs and cared about the socialization of the pups. We bought our Annabel (formerly named Bailey) in February, and can't imagine our lives without her. She is sweet, snuggly, and often comical. We are now forever a pug family thanks to this wonderful experience. When the time comes for our family to have another dog, I would return without hesitation.

We LOVEEE our Tucker! We can’t thank the Zook family enough! They are incredible. From the moment I called I knew that they were genuine and cared about their pups. They let us come meet Tucker before we were allowed to bring him home. We met his mom and she had an amazing demeanor! We knew that when we met the Zook family and all of their children that Tucker would be the perfect family pup and he sure is! I can’t say enough great things about the Zook family. Thank you - thank you - thank you !!!

In April of 2016 we brought home a sweet 12 week old pug puppy named Ringo from the Zook family (renamed to Pickles). 4 years later he is still as happy, healthy, energetic, and surprisingly athletic as ever for a pug! We have always received boasting compliments on the appearance and charm of our Pickles and he is just the sweetest, well tempered pup out there. We truly couldn’t imagine our life without him and thank the Zook family for helping us years ago meet our perfect family dog match!

We are madly in love with Arthur (Formerly Tucker), our puppy that we purchased from the Zook family. We found Sarah and the Zook family to be wonderful, honest and someone I would be happy to purchase another puppy from. With that said, we very much intend to purchase another puppy from the Zook family when Arthur turns 1. Arthur has been in very good health, has been wonderfully socialized and we as we said, we are madly in love with him. A well deserved 5 stars.

The Zook Family are wonderful breeders. Communication was good. We got to see the parents of the puppy.
We adopted a pug puppy named “Aiden”, who we renamed Roy in October 2018. What a great dog! Roy brings so much joy to everyone who meets him! I recommend the Zooks to anyone who is looking for a pug puppy. Thank you for a great dog!

Very good breeder. No nonsense. Great communication and easy to deal with. We bought a black pug puppy named Blake who is very socialized. A show quality pug. It is easy to tell the Zooks really love breeding dogs and treat them like family until they go to their forever families. Would definitely recommend the Zooks to anyone who wants a well socialized quality puppy.
