Puppy care tips, breed guides, and helpful resources for new families

“When my husband and I decided we were ready to welcome a new puppy into our lives, we knew Gloria and Smoochie Poochie Pups were the right choice for us. We've know Gloria since the early 2000's when she was our groomer.  She was always so pleasant to deal with and you just knew she really loved animals. Fast forward to 2026 and she is still the same. After I submitted an application, she promptly called me to discuss  her puppies and the adoption process. We went to pick out our puppy the next day and we brought our Josie home a few days later. She is the absolute love of our life. Gloria had a packet ready for us with info, her vet records & even a birth certificate. She was also freshly bathed and sent home with an adorable blanket. I would 100% recommend Gloria and Smoochie Poochie Pups to anyone looking to bring a puppy into their life. She is a caring, ethical breeder and I love knowing she is just a phone call away.” - Carol Mielkey 

“We’ve had our puppy for about 5 weeks now and couldn’t be more happy with our sweet little love.  Gloria was responsive and personable from start to finish and you could tell she cared for these pups.  She even texted us a few days after to make sure our little boy was acclimating well. We are so excited to have this new little bundle of joy in our lives!” - Tracy Jandro 

Gloria was such a great communicator in helping assist us with the perfect fit for our family. You can tell she takes such good care of both the parents and puppies. We got two brothers and they are the most loving, sweet, smart photogenic , and happy boys we could imagine! Highly recommend!
