Meet the breeder

I'm Joy F., the breeder behind Joy Furey Pixy Puff Papillons located in Harrisburg, IL. I have loved Papillons for many years, but it wasn't until 2005 that I began raising them. In my opinion, they are some of the smartest and cutest dogs in the world. Puppies are raised inside my home. Weather permitting, puppies enjoy tumbling around outside on our mini-farm.

Q. & A. with Joy

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I had never heard of Papillons when I found an adorable, small puppy at a pound. I was told she was a Sheltie-Terrier mix. Years later I happened to see Kirby win Grand Champion. As soon as I saw him, I realized Missy had been a Papillon! In 2005, I had my first litter of Papillon puppies. Seeing the look on new owners faces when they see their puppy is priceless.

  • What makes your program special?

    I endeavor to raise happy, healthy puppies. In that effort, my puppies and adult dogs get to be dogs. They are not constantly cooped up inside. They see/interact with bigger dogs, cats and chickens and sometimes goats/ducks on our mini-farm. Parents of puppies have been tested and cleared or cleared through parentage/lineage for PRA-PAP1, NAD and von Willebrand disease; results upon request.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
