I could not be happier with my now 4 1/2 month old Berry. She is a very bright little girl. She was housebroken within 3 days, learned sit, stay, wait, come within weeks and walks beautifully on a leash. I certainly believe that the nurturing and care given to the young pups by Karen and Danielle is so instrumental in the later successes of these puppies.
I️ have two cream golden retrievers (dogs) from icewind! Kya and Maui! They are the most beautiful, loving and sweet dogs ever! I️ highly recommend them!❤️
I visited Icewind prior to purchasing my English Cream Golden and was very impressed with Karen, the dogs and the facility. Without knowing if I would choose to purchase from her, Karen spent over an hour answering my questions and giving me good information, showing me the grounds and the adult dogs. As this was to be a major purchase, her care and concern for her dogs gave me the confidence to proceed. She has continued to be available to me with any questions or concerns I have had after bringing my pup home...from advice on everyday issues to articles on spaying and foods. The health of her Goldens is of utmost importance to her. That is important to me and should be to any of you out there considering a Golden!
Thank you Karen, Danielle and Icewinds for my sweet, adorable, healthy little treasure!
We visited our prospective puppy's parents and the breeder in person before purchasing. We liked what we saw and gave a $450 deposit on 8/20 in good faith for our unborn puppy. 9/1 Karen, the owner of Icewind in Philipsburg NJ sent over a contract that required us to feed TLC food and NuVet supplements ordered under her breeder number or her genetic health guarantee would be null and void. I stewed in disgust for a few weeks over the parameters of this contract. Karen reached out a few times in urgency that I sign her contract before puppy was 6 weeks old. This sent up a red flag. When the puppy was 5 weeks old I told Karen, the breeder that I felt she scammed us by taking our deposit without presenting the (unusual) parameters of her contract. I wanted my deposit back. She said "deposits are non-refundable". I was angry and stewed another 24 hours but decided to move forward with purchasing the puppy from her for $4,000 even if I knew the contract would be "null and void." (I know way overpriced) We wrote back to confirm our puppy picking appointment at 6 weeks. She wrote back and said she had sold our puppy to someone else. She said, I had asked for my deposit back and she figured I did not want her puppy. I said "now that you have re-sold our puppy and been paid, I assume you will send our deposit back. She said “no”. I am speaking out to warn others of this unethical breeder.
We spent a lot of time researching shiba breeders before visiting Icewind in March. I had a lot of reservations based on the number of bad reviews, but our experience couldn't have been more positive. From my first email with Karen to the most recent update I sent her, she has been first and foremost, caring about her dogs. Phoebe has been home for almost 2 months and adjusted really well to city life. She loves our yard and clearly takes after her dad who we met on site with an insane passion for fetching. We worked with a professional trainer and he was just astounded that she was a shiba. Her social skills with other people and other dogs is top notch. We have worked hard, but know that a lot of these traits were things that were started very early with the folks at Icewind. Phoebe was the only puppy in her class that hasn't had ANY issues with house training and that credit is entirely to Karen and crew who worked hard before Phoebe ever came home. We couldn't be any happier with her sweet, loving, energetic, and furry addition to our family and want to sincerely thank Icewind for the wonderful puppies they're raising.
Great experience. We bought a Shiba Inu puppy from Icewind over a year ago. He is a wonderful and gorgeous dog and has become the star of the neighborhood :) I enjoyed dealing with everyone at Icewind as they were very friendly and efficient. Their facility is a great spot to raise dogs and my dog came to me very happy and healthy. I should also add that our vet commented that he was a very healthy and beautiful dog.
