I'm Jill S., the breeder behind JMs Bichons located in Eaton Rapids, MI. We treasure each puppy in our program and give them all the attention and care that we possibly can. We work hard so our puppies can leave our home with confidence, ready to take on the world with their new family!
Q. & A. with Jill
Why did you start breeding?
I have raised many different types of animals for breeding and showing since I was a little kid. After having my own children I wanted them to the experience of breeding and the happiness that a puppy can bring to another persons life. Over the past 22 years my children have been able to see the impact the puppies have on our lives and the lives of others.
What makes your program special?
We love and care for each puppy as we do their parents that are our family members. Once a puppy is purchased the care and concern does not go away. We have an open door policy and the forever owner is encouraged to call or email any questions or concerns they have regarding their puppy. All puppies are required to be spayed or neutered and come with a limited registration with the AKC.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Jill was so awesome through the entire process! She answered every question we had from being 1st time dog owners to Bichon specific questions! You can tell she cares so much for these pups with all of the care and knowledge she has to offer. We are so happy to have gotten our Charlotte from Jill. She is such an incredible loving pup and so happy to have her apart of our family! Thank you Jill for being so wonderful and responsive in helping us be the best pup parents!

We are so thankful that we located Jill and JM’s Bichons. It was a pleasure to work with Jill, she takes the time to answer all our questions specially the ones that have come up since taking Sally home with us. Sally is such a joy and has settled in so easily. The puppies in Sally’s litter were fun to meet and Sally made the transition so easy which we know is due to Jill making sure her pups have such a good start. We highly recommend JM’s Bichon Frise’ to everyone.

Jill is incredibly caring and knowledgable about the breed and what to expect from this line of pups. She was easy to work with and always responds promptly to questions. I love that she sent Pawl's favorite toy and a few things that smelled like his mom and dad with him when I came to fetch him. Pawl is an adorable little Bichon, doing exactly what baby Bichon's should do and seems to be very well socialized. He came home puppy-pad trained and eating dry puppy food that is only contains ingredients that are safe and healthy for the breed. I appreciate that Jill does the research on what ingredients this breed needs to avoid and what foods fit the bill. We want little Pawl to have a long and healthy life, so it really helped to know what foods cause problems in this breed right from the start. Jill is also very open and welcoming of questions now that we are home and loves to see updates and pictures of how Pawl is doing. It's comforting to know that I can reach her throughout Pawl's life if I need information or guidance.

We both decided on a new Bichon Frise puppy as we wanted something easier to manage, smart, and hypoallergenic. We found Jill from JMs Bichons on the good dogs app. From the beginning, Jill’s knowledge and love for the breed shinned through. She talked about care, breed personalities and resources to make the dog ownership a good experience. We visited her house and found many loving puppies and grown Bichon Frise dogs. After a week of ownership, Flurry Cloud has exceeded expectations. Jill has been fully accessible and answers us on any questions we have. Buying from JMs Bichon is like buying a long term coach on how to be a good owner. Jill will make the experience great for you.

Oh my gosh! Working with Jill was awesome! She stayed in touch and made sure we had all the information we need. The puppy is amazing. Adorable and crazy smart! Already can sit and leave it on command. He’s healthy and playful and snuggly. Everything we hoped for. Thank you thank you thank you, Jill!
