Meet the breeder

I'm Kelli M., the breeder behind Kelli's Kennels located in Pacolet, SC. Our animals at our home are vaccinated/dewormed and have regular vet visits. All parents are socialized and have good temperments. We work on any food aggression behaviors/bad habits. I also wean them away from sleeping with their mother at last a week prior to coming to you. Sweet dreams 4 all!

Q. & A. with Kelli

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Hello, My name is Kelli and I've been breeding dogs for six years. My parents used to breed dogs. I have been around animals all of my life from domestic to farm animals. I started off breeding American Eskimos or Eskies back in 2020, but now only breed smaller breeds.

  • What makes your program special?

    My puppies come to you well socialized, dewormed/shots, beginner crate/outdoor potty intro, and healthy. Over the years, all the litters have been healthy and successful. I usually keep in contact (if permitted) to check on pets and their families. I have great feedback. I like building lasting relationships and I'm happy to answer any questions regarding pet care and first time pet owners.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Kelli’s Kennels/Kelli has been a pleasure, joy, and blessing to work with during the adoption process for Hercules AKA Cooper! She was very responsive within 30 minutes or sooner and she also sent videos and pictures upon request. Kelli was patient in answering our many questions to get us ready to bring our fur baby home. We met her and her sweet family in SC because we wanted to get our fur baby home sooner. He came with a goodie bag and health records. Our Cooper has been a little joy in our household. We love him! I highly recommend Kelli’s Kennels if you’re looking for your next fur baby!!!

    Kelli has been incredibly responsive and supportive and has offered practical suggestions to ease Clover’s transition from her home to ours. She has amazing insight on our puppy’s personality, which was very helpful. It is evident that Kelli loves her fur babies and is eager to place them with the best family. I feel like I have a new friend!
