this review is long over due, I got my Pomeranian puppy at 3 months old & now she is a year and 2 months! She is the best thing that has ever happened to me. She has been a super healthy pup & brought so much joy into me & everyone she has met’s life! Shout out to Charles for helping me name her & helping me with everything I needed. I posted a puppy & a recent photo ♥️

I fell in love and found my furever friend last week with the help of Antonio. From my initial phone call explaining the deposit process to hold the puppy, to allowing me the time to spend with two dogs so I could make the best decision, Antonio was fantastic and patient. He thoroughly explained financing options, walked me through all of the paperwork and discussed diet and a ton of other new puppy advice. I could not recommend him more. Welcome home Bogey!

I can’t thank Shake a Paw, but especially Brittany, enough for helping us give this cutie his forever home. Brittany is so loving and caring and went above and beyond to hold him for us until we could bring him home. Amazing experience and our family feels complete again. Fur-ever grateful!!

It's always a pleasure working with the great staff at Shake A Paw. This is our 4th puppy we've purchased from one of there locations. Brittany was fantastic very helpful and knowledgeable about our pup. The financing process was very fast and accommodating in getting our new little buddy home with us. They are a five star operation in our eyes. Great inventory and very clean and well run. Thanks once again for making our family alittle happy in these times of such confusion.

We had a very beautiful experience at Shake a paw in Union. Bianca made us feel comfortable when it came to deal with the paperwork she explained everything to us..She is a very happy pleasent person that we had the Pleasure of knowing and letting her help us with our loving companion Luna. ❤️ anyone looking for a loving pet go to shake a paw and ask for Bianca she is a very happy going person. BIANCA THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING 🥰 07/13/2023

The service was excellent at Shake a Paw in Union. This is our first puppy! Bryan was so patient with us as we asked to see and interact with several different breeds before we decided on our Cockapoo! Bryan answered all of our questions and addresses out concerns! Our puppy is the best and has been a wonderful addition to our family!

We had such a wonderful experience with Shake a Paw. Charlie was fantastic and so patient with out purchase of our little Rocky. He halped us every step of the way. We came home with everything we needed to help Rocky settle in to his home. Thank you again🥰

Almost three years ago i brought a girl sheepadoodle from shake a paw, My family and i just had to come back and of course thanks to Caitlin we yet again got another chance to leave with a new family addition! A baby boy sheepadoodle! Caitlin was truly amazing. She was kind, funny & super helpful the process was easy and fast. Again I want to say a big thanks to her and all the wonderful staff. One picture is Zoey my very first baby from them ! The second is our new little guy Bruno!

AMAZING!! Charlie - the sales associate was wonderful. We really didn’t go with the intention of purchasing a puppy - however I am so, so happy we ended up with one!! I wholeheartedly believe that is Charlie wasn’t there - we would have left. I went to another location and was not impressed with the customer service - the Green Brook location is the one I would recommend! Every single detail was explained with calm and patience. So glad we ended up here!! Brownie, our Cavapoo is a cutie and such a good little pup!!

I waited 3months to give a honest review.. shake a paw blessed me with my bestfriend, they have great customer service, great prices. My puppy is so healthy & If you see this post, it’s a sign TO GO, you won’t be disappointed ❤️ Thank you so much, shake a paw.

SHAKE A PAW IS AN AMAZING PLACE! 11/10 recommend getting your puppy from this place. The staff is so lovely and wonderful. They were helping us at all times ans made our experience here so amazing!!! We took home this beautiful chihuahua 🤭they're doggies are all so cute!! Definitely recommend this place :) GOD Bless🙏🏼

Brittany was amazing! Very warm and friendly and genuinely loves her job. She made the process for my fiancé and I super easy to get our pup Louie ! She was so informative with the process and everything we needed to know about Louie. Thank you again Brittany!! Louie loves his home 💚 we couldn’t have done it without you

My husband and I had an excellent experience finding our new puppy Murphy. He is a mini Irish Doodle and it was love at first sight! Christie was a pleasure to work with. She was very friendly and answered all our questions. She even was able to send me pictures of my puppy since his pictures were no longer on the website. That was greatly appreciated. The store itself was very clean. The puppies looked to be well taken care of. Speaking specifically of my puppy he is very happy and social. I can tell he was well taken care of during his time in the store. He was on high quality food at Shake A Paw and we continue to feed him that at home. He absolutely loves it. And even better, he received an excellent bill of health from our vet. No parasites or health issues. We really had a great experience. We recommend 🐾💙

We have 3 dogs from here that we have gotten over the last 5 years and just had our 1 year gotcha day with our latest this past month. The whole staff is really great and want to make sure you are getting the right puppy for you. They are well informed and care about all the animals. If a dog is a little high-strung or not going to be great with kids they are very forthcoming. They have always been this way with us. Before getting our last puppy we looked at another one about 2 months before that had been there for a little while. The staff remembered us and let us sit with the dog. Before we did they said she wasn’t going to be the right fit and she definitely wasn’t. A couple months later we went back and got our newest, he was perfect. All of our dogs have always left healthy and have never had any issues. They are really special people.

Was love at first sight. We add the best dog to our family. She is so smart and sweet. Bianca was amazing from the beginning, she did everything in her hand to help and guide us thru the adoption process. She is so caring and knowledgeable about animals. And when you know you know is all in their eyes. Welcome Luna Ortiz to our family. You are so loved.

Brittany was such a huge help with selecting our new chihuahua. Very patient with our time deciding on if they would be the best fit for our family, too answering the tons of questions we had about our new addition to the family. Brittany was a huge decision factor for us in our choice and we cannot thank her enough, she truly loves her job and the care of the homes for these pets. Our new girl Gemma will be loved and cared for the best that we can offer, thank you again!

Shake a paw is great! Got our second pup from there, have also referred a few family members. Charlie was great at the green Brook location, and Bryan at union was wonderful for a second time as well.

SHAKE A PAW IS AN AMAZING PLACE! 100/10 recommend getting your puppy from this place. The staff is so lovely and wonderful. They were helping us at all times and made our experience here so amazing!!! We took home this beautiful and handsome BOXER they're doggies are all so cute!!

We have a wonderful experience buying a pup from Shake a Paw. I interacted with Charlie. They are a great team, very kind to the pets, maintain the place well, thorough in their sale process. All the pets waiting to find a home are well cared for. They made it nice and easy for us, patiently answered our questions, allowed us to bond with the pup. The paperwork is quite comprehensive. They have a very nice store with pet accessories. I highly recommend Shake a Paw.

Brittany and Charlie, two wonderful people, helped me from the first day, in the search for my puppy it took three weeks but it finally arrived, also they were always kind and courteous with my daughters who asked about the puppy every day. thanks guys, top service, immediate credit approval, reasonable prices top of the line puppies, and very well cared for, thanks shake a paw. welcome home Captain Fredric.

In the words of my 8 year old- it was an AMAZIIINNNGGGG and exciting experience. this is my second pet from Shake a Paw and Charles was super helpful and accommodating. He was patient while we bonded with our new fur baby and assisted in running down the list of necessities to take our baby home. Thanks again for a great experience.

Had a wonderful experience!! Bianca took great care of us and made the day special. Her personalized touch and obvious passion for dogs made our decision smooth and easy. Would recommend to anyone considering getting a new pup for the family. She even took some cute photos of us on the way out.

Great experience, excellent customer service. We got our puppy and they explained everything that we need to take care of him. Thanks to Samantha for helping us to get the most beautiful puppy

We absolutely love our new family member (Bao Bao.) He's only been home with us a few short weeks but our whole family loves him, he's caught onto potty training very quickly and loves our cats. We couldn't have asked for a better puppy ♡ Thank you to all who helped us!

The staff was EXTREMELY patient & helpful with making sure we brought home our 1 year old son’s forever best friend. The whole staff was great but Nicole is who helped us directly and she was amazing all around, between being patient, looking for other options for us, & being extremely nice to my son who was getting fussy, such a good first time experience of buying our own dog for our adult life and for our son to have a fur friend the way we did growing up.

I want to shout out Antonio & Christine !! They are amazing workers !! Who have also been such an amazing help in my visit yesterday!! I wasn’t sure if I would be able to leave with a new addition to our little family , but after a couple of hours , detailed information by the amazing staff. I was able to leave with a puppy who is the absolute sweetest!! ( my daughters early birthday present) I can’t express how truly happy and grateful we are to have her ❤️ Hope ❤️ . I’d highly recommend Shake A Paw to any and everyone! Ask for either or ! (Although the entire staff are awesome as well!! )

I went to the green brook and union locations and they were both amazing!!! The staff there was wonderful and very helpful. We had intially gone to the green brook location where we got our first dog 18 years ago! Now looking for a new pup, Brittany and the staff were very pleasent throughout our adoption of our new pup Cupid!!! Great people, great place, great pups!!

We had wonderful experience at Shake a paw. Brittany helped us tremendously in finding our new baby. This is our second dog from Greenbrook store. Our beloved Daisy passed away at age 15 few years ago. She was the best dog we ever had. We are hoping that Spencer will follow the same foot steps. So far he is wonderful.

We got the puppy of our dreams!!! Our Gracie is absolutely gorgeous and Brittany made everything so seamless for us. She walked us through each step of the way and made us feel so comfortable. She is incredibly knowledgeable and she is such a huge asset to Shake a Paw. We are so happy to bring home our baby girl. Absolutely incredible experience couldn’t be more happier 🙂 Thank you again Brittany you truly are a gem. If you’re looking for a cute pup I would recommend shake a paw a thousand percent, they have such a great selection of different breeds, Im sure you’ll find your dream pup there too 😊💓

Britany was a pleasure to work with. Very easy to talk to and knowledgeable. If we decide to get another puppy we’d ask for her to help us again. Shake a paw had so many beautiful puppies. Wish we could’ve taken them all home. We named our English bulldog puppy Luna!

I recently visited Shake a Paw in Union, NJ, to pick up my new puppy, an adorable Italian Greyhound named Lorenzo, and my experience was nothing short of fantastic! From the moment I walked into the store, I was impressed by the cleanliness and organization. The facility was well-maintained, and the puppies appeared healthy and happy in their spacious, clean enclosures. It was clear that the staff takes great care of the animals. The staff at Shake a Paw were incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout the entire process. They took the time to answer all my questions and provided detailed information about Lorenzo's breed, temperament, and care needs. Their passion for animals was evident, and they made sure I felt comfortable and prepared to take care of my new furry friend. Meeting Lorenzo was love at first sight. He was playful, energetic, and clearly well-socialized. The staff ensured that he was up-to-date on his vaccinations and provided me with all the necessary paperwork and health records. They even offered a starter kit with essential items for Lorenzo, which was a thoughtful touch. The adoption process was smooth and efficient. The staff guided me through the necessary paperwork and made sure I understood everything before leaving the store. They also provided valuable advice on feeding, training, and general care, which was incredibly helpful for a first-time Italian Greyhound owner like me. Overall, my experience at Shake a Paw was exceptional. The combination of a clean, welcoming environment, knowledgeable and friendly staff, and a well-cared-for puppy made this a perfect experience. I highly recommend Shake a Paw to anyone looking to add a new furry member to their family. Lorenzo has been a joyful addition to my life, and I am grateful to Shake a Paw for their dedication and support.

Call it love at first sight. The moment we saw him, we fell in love with him. Bianca has been very informative, patient with all our inquiries and concerns. She definitely educated us also abouth things we have to know as first time fur parents. They have a wide selections, their puppies are healthy and the place is clean. We definitely give Shake a Paw a thumbs up. 🐾🐶👌🏼

Two great experiences. We adopted our Rescue dog, Sammy 2 years ago and our newest puppy yesterday. They’re both adorable and we couldn’t be happier. Our next door neighbor and our across the street neighbors also bought their dogs there and had wonderful experiences , which is why I went. Charlie , the manager , was extremely kind and helpful.

Found the love of my life here with my fiancé. Charles conspired with him to sneakily set up the wonderful surprise. He helped me through the entire process and you could tell he absolutely loves his job. Even Bianca came outside and helped take photos of us with our newest family addition. Chloe couldn't be anymore perfect. Thank you so so much for making this possible.

We are so lucky this little munchkin came home with us.. Very happy we could add this new member to our family. My nieces are beyond excited to play with our new Cavapoo. Team at Shake a paw helped us to pick this bundle of joy, gave us all the instructions we need to take care of her and Bianca even helped me pick the best products for our new baby to make sure she settle in without any problems. Bianca is absolutely wonderful, reachable for any and all questions I have! Highly recommend Shake a paw, there are beautiful healthy and happy puppies waiting for forever homes and you won’t be disappointed.

My mom’s dog of 10 years suddenly passed away and she was desperately lonely living alone. I’m in a different state and called Shake A Paw and spoke to Christie. She was so nice and understanding. She arranged to personally bring my mom a beautiful puppy the next day. Unbelievable that someone unknown to us would be so kind! She arrived at my mom’s front door at 11am on Saturday and surprised her with the puppy of her dreams. As a family we couldn’t be happier for my mom to be happy and for Christie to go out of her way to drive 30 minutes away to deliver the puppy. Thank you Christie for your incredible caring and for making my mom’s day!! We will forever be grateful.

I went to Shake a paw Saturday just as a spare of the moment trying my luck with a dog. I walked in and was warmly greeted by an amazing young lady who introduced herself as Bianca. I must say the service I received from her was beyond impeccable. She was very informative, she provided me with the most helpful, warm service I’ve ever had and I was able to walk out of there with the dog I’ve always wanted….kudos to Bianca….!!!

Everyone @shakeapaw made the transition home amazing ! Special thanks to Christie for my endless questions. This isn’t my first rodeo with them … return customer . Thank you for your patience and kindness !

We are having a great experience with Shake A Paw 🐾 our cockapoo is a beautiful Chocolate Roan color with gorgeous Hazel eyes. We have decided to name him "de Trasci Saint Maverick" YOU HAD US AT WOOF

My first experience with Shake A Paw and it couldn’t have been more pleasant or gone any better. I first chatted with Amanda on Saturday, and explained which puppy I was interested in, she was very helpful and explained she would meet with me the next day on Sunday. She was a pleasure to work with. Extremely knowledgeable, and helpful with items I needed. I would recommend Shake A Paw and if she’s available, ask for Amanda (however all the girls were helpful and pleasant Still trying to figure out the right name for him but he is very happy, as are all of us!

Brittany was extremely helpful, warm, and bubbly! I immediately fell in l♡ve with our newest baby KoKo!! It was so easy and she fits right in with our family. I would definitely come back and refer/ recommend Shake A Paw to EVERYONE! We are so happy!!

Thanks to Brittany I found the perfect dog. The staff was very helpful and you can tell they care about all the animals in the store. I would highly recommend.

We had an amazing experience at Shake A Paw in Union when we bought our first dog—a beautiful corgi puppy named Chloe! Samantha, who assisted us throughout the process, was exceptional. She was calm, patient, and understanding, even as we took our time looking at four different puppies before making our decision. She explained everything clearly and in detail, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. We couldn’t be happier with Chloe or the outstanding service we received. If you’re considering getting a dog, I highly recommend Shake A Paw in Union. Thank you, Samantha, for making this such a positive and unforgettable experience!

My experience at shake a paw was nothing short of amazing!! I first went to look and play with one dog I saw online and Brittany was so helpful and sweet. She provided me with so much information about this specific breed. I went back a week later and Nicole was equally as helpful. She set me up with all the necessities, including the food and the cutest harness and leash! So grateful for this amazing staff and their help in bringing home my fur baby Winnie!

I have always been skeptical of getting a puppy from here, but with our recent experience (in August) I wouldn’t hesitate to go back. My family and I were searching for a pomsky which we were going to get locally. Unfortunately, the person whose dogs had the puppies ended up selling without giving us the opportunity. We happened to be in shake a paw “to get excited” to welcome the new puppy we were going to meet when we got that text. out of pure serendipity…there was one pomsky in the entire place. the exact color, gender, and personality we were looking for. it was an immediate yes. Bianca had helped us and provided all of the answers we needed…I asked many questions regarding their process of selecting puppies and making sure they do not come from puppy mills. Bianca was so informative and had stellar advice. our puppy was a little sick the first couple weeks which is typical when kept in a space with many puppies. shake a paw has a program where they will handle any sign of illness within the first month, which is exactly what happened. the process was very seamless. we are now almost 6 months into having her in our lives and we can’t imagine it without her. her demeanor, silliness, and loving personality has stolen everyone’s hearts. I recommend them a thousand times over.

I bought my dog Milo, he’s a pure English bulldog. Ever since I saw him I knew I had to take him with me. They got small rooms where u can meet with your dog. The best part is that they have everything set up, for example they helped me with the insurance and the vet for him. I’m so thankful my sister found this amazing store. God bless

Brittany was super helpful and accommodating which made the process go smoothly despite the little hiccups we ran into. I am so grateful for the advice and service she gave as she made it very easy to understand (and, she even helped picking out some cute accessories to add to my little iggy's wardrobe!!). She has such a bright energy to her and she is so kind. I would highly recommend consulting with her! Thank you, Brittany and all the other staff present for making my experience unforgettable! :)

We love Shake A Paw! This is our second time getting a fur baby for our family with them. First time, we got our Mini Goldendoodle, Tucker Oliver, 3 years ago at the Union location and this time around, we got our Mini Aussie, Sadie Leia, at the Greenbrook location. Both amazing locations with healthy puppies! We were shopping around for about two months for a girl puppy to add to our family, as it was time for Tucker to have a fur sibling to play around with and love! We had a few we bonded with in our journey, however, nothing like our Mini Aussie we got days ago with the help of Brittany! Brittany was super helpful, patient, caring, knowledgeable, and sweet! She helped us with any questions we had about her and her breed, her health, her family traits, etc. You can tell she loves her job and animals! Brittany took good care of her while she was on hold for us until her pick up & always so gentle with our Sadie. We brought Tucker with us to meet his sister and take pictures all together at departure, and Brittany showed love to him by giving him some treats & a matching mini blanket and squeaker in one so "he wouldn't feel left out" so thoughtful!! Although they may be a bit pricey, if you can do it, go for it because puppies always come home healthy from our last experience and our newest, and they really do live by "meet your forever best friend" because our fur babies are our best friends and the sweetest fur babies :) it's so worth it at the end of the day. If you end up on your search for a puppy at Shake a Paw Greenbrook, ask for Brittany!! You can look at all the available puppies for both locations online before going & it's always up to date instantly! Enjoy some photos of our baby girl pup at pick up, at home, and days after her pick up :)

Thank you to shake a paw we have the most beautiful dog and I love her so much and Christy was especially helpful. She was knowledgeable and knew all the right things to tell us about getting a new puppy. We love Chloe.

I had the most amazing experience with Shake A Paw. I was extremely nervous about getting a puppy but Bianca eased my nervousness. She was so helpful, and reassuring. She explained every detail to me and I left there feeling a lot less nervous. I know the key is patience and repetition, but Bianca advised even after I leave, I was able to contact her with any questions I have. This definitely put me more at ease. Highly recommend.

I cannot say enough great things about Shake a Paw Green Brook, and Brittany in particular. Brittany was beyond professional. We had the pleasure of being in the store for extended visits on Valentines day, the next day, and today (pick up day!). We were there for hours each time playing with each of the two pups we added to our family (brother and sister from same liter) We witnessed Brittany's professionalism in every interaction we were a part of as well as many others throughout the day. She clearly loves her job and takes a personal interest in finding forever homes for every pup in her care. She gave us excellent advice throughout and was as thrilled for us as we were! She is truly in the right position and gives ALL of her heart every minute of her day. Shake a Paw is lucky to have her. And if you are considering adding a fur-baby, you would be blessed to have Brittany as part of the process!
