Plenty of ways to find out in our current day and age. Our customer review section is a nice place to start. Feel free to contact past customers to verify their experience. You could also take a look at our "Family" page to see who you are talking / texting with. Additionally, we are licensed. We only use trusted & bank-protected payment methods like major credit cards, paypal, etc & would NEVER use a non-trusted cash app or western union, walmart money gram-- since that's what scammers use. We also have videos of pups which match the puppy in the photos. Additionally, we have a completely secure website where your information is never shared. We use the same securities as BEST BUY, HOME DEPOT and other major companies in U.S. And lastly, we offer live video chats on our website so you can verify via FaceTime.
