The Left Paw New Hyde Park, New York

I didn't purchase a pet but they were the very helpful and had a decent price that I missed out on, great place with a good selection.

Told back in 30 minutes then when I returned I was asked to call and make and appointment don't tell me to come back just to tell me to call horrible customer service and attitude close or schedule your meeting or have meetings at some other time don't waste peoples time

Beautiful puppies but ridiculously expensive. I wouldn't recommend this placw

This dog was the best . His name is Oliver on line. He is a sweet heart. Not aggressive. Seemed to be good with a 2 year old. He is teething but was not too aggressive biting. Did not bark at all and we were there 1/2 hour.

After driving also 1:30 hr I was told I could not see or purchase a dog because it was past their feeding time … like are you serious - to see a puppy and buy it I have to come between feeding … how is that a business practice or at least it should be communicated on your site… not cool at all ???????? ???????? ???????? ???????? ???????? - PS : I did an appointment Response : I did tell you I was going to be driving from CT to which it was going to take some time … I don’t control traffic …. You said you will be there that It wouldn’t be a problem … you never mentioned anything about feeding time or about needing an appointment to purchase a dog or a late/reschedule policy … on your site it says “ at this time the left paw is open only by appointment… “ to which I would interpret as : to visit the store you are only accepting appointment ( even though when I was there , customers walked in and were looking around the other puppies available , I suppose no appointment either ) if you have your policies I respect them but just communicate them better

I have always adopted from shelters, but after many of months disappointment we adopted our dogs from The Left Paw. The store is always immaculate, cages clean, healthy pups and you can tell the staff really cares about their puppies and the homes they go too. On occassion, we visit with our CoCo and he still remembers Sarah and is so happy to see her.

I love it I see a puppy that I call frenchie and he is so cute

We just had the best experience here! Vanessa, I believe her name was, was so helpful and kind. The whole staff was so helpful and the atmosphere itself was incredible! It was clean and the dogs seem very healthy. They provide the lineage of the puppies and answer any questions. Would definitely recommend buying from here!

If you visit this store you will see just how STERILE the entire place is. I have been overjoyed and blessed by my baby I purchased from them, previously Marley, and now Bentley! He has the most hysterical personality and was clearly very loved and comfortable prior to me taking him home. Thank you Sarah for your kindness and upmost care and love for all of your puppies because it's extremely hard to come by.

Great customer service, nice little shop. I just got my little one from there and she is a pretty one.

It is recommended to first call and make an appointment before going in, for COVID safety. It is a small shop and not too many puppies for display. You can look on their website to see what they have available and it is true to what they have in store. They really know their puppies and their puppies look happy and well taken care of. Their prices are reasonable (all puppies now are between 3-5k wherever you go). Before you can bring home a puppy, they do vet checks and one last grooming.

I bought a dog from them about a year ago for $1000, best purchase I’ve ever made. A tiny little Aussie-doodle, I named her Princess and she just turned a year old last month. She helped me through some very hard times and I’m sure others from this store are the same. Very friendly staff, always so happy to see her when I take her for nail cutting (which is free btw!). Highly recommended.

I bought a Bichon Poo at The Left Paw last year and I couldn't be happier with her! The store is amazing, they have a great selection of puppies and they take very good care of them! The staff is super nice and helpful and let you take your time getting to know the pups and answer all of your questions. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a new fur baby

10/10 would recommend Upon my first impression and from being to other puppy stores, the cages are clean and spacious, the puppies are alert, "pudgy" and happy. I purchased a Pomsky from there in 2019 and she is PERFECT. She was very healthy (still is) and I haven't had any issues upon bringing her home. Pomskies are hard to come by and the left paw seems to have the most! It's worth the trip!! These people have integrity and take care of their dogs

Being somewhat skeptical of puppy stores, I at first was anxious going from place to place searching for my forever pup. After a brief, friendly conversation over the phone, I was able to set up an available appointment to see the sweet and loving mini golden doodle that I have today. During the appointment, I did not feel hassled or rushed to make a decision. Needing a night to think it over, they were gracious enough to put a "hold" on her so no other people were able to see her. Once I had made up my mind and committed, for the health of all their dogs and her, they had to keep her for vet visits and checkups. I was able to visit her at least once a day, almost always more, but there was no issue or problem with setting up an appointment. Overall, I would say that the people working there, and the owner herself are very kind and respectable. For anyone potentially looking to get a puppy for themselves, it is a lot of responsibility but know that you'll get a healthy and adorable forever dog though The Left Paw!

My daughter & I had brought a beautiful male chihuahua on Sept 19th. He's the most beautiful puppy you could ever see. Many people wouldn't look at him because of his coat color, which is Blue Merle. His original name was Bleu, but we renamed him, Taco, which fits him better. He went from being very timid to a wonderful spunky, playful puppy. We love him so much and he even loves my boyfriend, whose pictured holding him. Glad I went here. The staff's so wonderful and very helpful.

The store is relatively clean and better maintained than some other pet stores but there's a cavalier puppy here that looks so sad and sick. Workers also said puppies weren't from PA but instead the Midwest even though its a known fact that the Midwest is puppy mill central. Ended up leaving the store not feeling comfortable buying a puppy that might have health issues for such a high price (the dogs we inquired about were ranging in price from $3800 to $5000!!) from a store and will probably go the shelter route, but YMMV.

Loved getting our puppy from here! Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable and the experience was great. They really stand by their dogs and I’d recommend to anyone looking to consider coming to The Left Paw.

LOVE this place. I have to admit, I was iffy about shopping at puppy stores, as I’ve seen how other places treat the dogs they sell. However, I came here because I was looking for a dog, and knew right off the bat that they treat their puppies with love and care. They separate the dogs by size and temperament so that each puppy feels comfortable. The staff was VERY knowledgeable on all dog breeds, and throughly explained how they care for the puppies. I ended up purchasing an adorable chihuahua, my best friend Pablo!! They gave me great insight on how to care for him in his younger weeks, and gave me a list of veterinary recommendations. A week after we brought Pablo home, the owner called us to check in and see how he was doing. We return to the store every so often to purchase food and wee wee pads-we love the staff and how we’re greeted when we enter the store! We love our little Pablo and couldn’t have been happier with the decision we made. If you would like to see our adorable Pablo, check out his Instagram! @bigapplepablo

First time.. Had some fun

My daughter and I bought mini dashchund puppies from left paw. They were perfect! We got all the proper paperwork and the staff was very helpful. The dogs were healthy and seem properly taken care of. I would buy another dog from there!

Last August 1st, we got our Bichon Frise as a retirement present for my husband and a pet for my son. Whenever I called, Sarah, Shana, and Alison were so welcoming and kind in answering all our questions about the process of purchasing our beloved puppy. On the other hand, Vanessa, the manager thoroughly walked us through from feeding to keeping our Stella healthy. Today, we visited them and as an added bonus, our new puppy got a “free” nail clipping. If you wanted a puppy buddy, Left Paw is the place to be where Puppy Care continues. Thank you ladies!

I bought my chocolate Labrador from the left paw a month ago. He has been the the vet three times since then and had no medical problems at all! I noticed in the reviews I read that people were complaining because their dogs contracted an illness from another dog before coming home with them. It’s impossible to know that every puppy is 100% healthy when someone comes into the store and buys them. There are pups there that just got there that day! Who knows who has what? No matter where the dogs come from or where they are when you go to meet them, they SHOULD be around other dogs and ARE around other dogs. It’s extremely important for dogs to socialize at this age and be near other dogs. Kennel couch and other minor health problems are the risk of this necessity. Don’t Blame the store though. The girls that were working the night I bought my handsome little boy pupper were very polite and waited for me even after their closing time (as I was running late). When I arrived, I didn’t feel rushed. I was happy with every aspect of the service I received. I’m so happy I decided to buy this dog. He’s such a good pup. I hope this helps someone and I hope if you do decide to get a puppy, that it ends up being the right one for you.

The Left Paw is an amazing place to buy a new puppy! My mom and I went there looking for a new addition to our family for my daughter’s birthday and we instantly fell in love with our new puppy! The staff was amazing they all went above and beyond to make everything so easy and fun we got to sit and play with our puppy the whole time while they took care of everything they even set us up with everything we needed to take our new puppy home and they took the time to explain every single thing even though we came after work so it was late and we were there after closing hours they stayed with smiles to explain it all! Sasha was such an amazing person she is so kind and helpful she even went in the back and put a going home bow on him and cleaned him up right before we left! If your looking to buy a puppy and not wait for hours or your not sure where to go This is the place you want to be! They have the most amazing staff they are very knowledgeable they have amazing puppies they are so quick and efficient I highly recommend The Left Paw to everybody! I usually never write reviews either but I was so happy with my new puppy and the whole experience that they deserve 10 stars!!! They are also very safe during this pandemic and they make sure everyone stays 6feet apart and there aren’t to many people in the store and that everyone uses hand sanitizer! That made me feel so much better and a lot safer everything about this place especially the staff and my experience and my handsome new puppy was hands down amazing!

Went on Saturday. No puppies under $5000 dollars. Price gouging during the pandemic. Very sad

I originally saw The Left Paw’s Instagram and was very pleased to see how active and up to date their social media was. That’s usually a good sign. I travelled all the way from the Bronx to visit this shop The next day just to see what dogs they had. The staff there was so friendly and answered all my questions. Then they introduced me to a white/brown shih Tzu that I immediately fell in love with!!! Once I laid my eyes on that dog I knew he was for me. The staff let me play with him and it was a done deal, there was no way I was gonna walk out of the store without him. He’s now in our lovely home going on 4 months and he’s been the family treasure. He’s so friendly, so sweet and so adorable. Lastly, I brought him for a check up immediately after I bought him to make sure everything was okay health wise and he was perfectly healthy! The dogs at the left paw are well taken cared of. I’ll be getting another puppy soon and will probably come back to this store to get one. Definitely recommend this store!

Found my pup, Archie, here just before the city shut down for the quarantine. Everything was safe and sanitized and they took time to figure out the best pup for me based on what I wanted in a dog. I owned a Jack Russell for 16 years and was nervous a new dog wouldn’t live up to my previous one. Archie and I have been together a month and he has been a great puppy. Thanks for all the help in finding me a new best friend!

I called your store to inquire about one of the puppies I saw on your insta page and spoke to Bryanna who was so helpful and gave me so much information. She was patient with me as I asked her many questions and was such a pleasure to talk to. Thank you Bryanna, you guys will definitely be seeing me soon!!

The assistants were very very helpful and really cool environment with dogs around..

The 2 young ladies that greeted me were very nice and I could tell that they love the pups :) I loved the first dog they showed me and didn't look at any others. However, she was a bit too expensive (for me) but I am waiting to see if she gets discounted. All the puppies in the store looked healthy and happy. They were active and playing. The store and crates were very clean.
