Meet the breeder
I'm Jolie A., the breeder behind J & J Kennels located in Upton, KY. I offer long-term, healthy puppies hand-picked for you! My puppies are all vet checked with vaccines and dewormer on board before leaving the property. All pups go home with contracts and puppy kits. I look forward to introducing you to your next family member!
Q. & A. with Jolie
Why did you start breeding?
I was introduced into breeding at a young age by my grandmother who raised and showed Kerry Blue Terriers and Boxers. As a technician, I’m always seeing litters come in and always enjoy seeing them grow from the time they’re a few days old to the time they’re a few years old.What makes your program special?
My breeding program is very small, having 1-2 litters a year at the moment. However, I’m very picky about where my dogs go. When my dogs do leave, they are sent with a “puppy package” which includes a collar and leash, a blanket, food, heartworm prevention, and a couple of toys. My dogs are a part of me and when you purchase a pup from me, you become part of my family!What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include sable, blue, and black and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

We had a great experience with J & J Kennels. Jolie was so helpful and we are in love with our new family member. This is our first puppy and Jolie has been an invaluable resource for puppy tips.

Jolie was an absolute pleasure to work with. We adopted Appa, formerly Cloud, in July 2025, and are so in love! We feel like we have been with him his entire life, as Jolie would send us weekly photos/videos that we always looked forward to every week. He also came with a little crate and potty training, which made ALL the difference. He has just been the best pup, and we are grateful we chose a responsible and diligent breeder like Jolie.

We had a wonderful experience buying our puppy from Jolie! I used to work in the veterinary field and am VERY picky when it comes to finding a responsible breeder. Jolie does a wonderful job with her dogs and gave our happy little guy such a great start! Jolie was very responsive along the way and always kept us updated with pictures and videos which we will treasure forever! It’s been so fun being able to see him grow from such a tiny newborn puppy to now!
