Meet the breeder
I'm Dede S., the breeder behind Ballyhoo located in Moncks Corner, SC. I am a breeder who focuses on giving each and every one of my dogs and puppies the best life possible. I breed only CHIC tested dogs and raise them in my home using Puppy Culture methods. I do everything I can to ensure the puppies have everything they need to develop into healthy and happy dogs.
