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, microchipped, 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 was so responsive and she was very knowledgeable about the Maltipoo breed. She posted multiple videos and I must have come back to watch Duchess (was Lyra) about 3 or 4 times before I made my final decision. I was looking at a couple other pups but something about Kelli and the love she and her family showed the pups made the decision easy. We picked up my girl on Aug. 1, 2026 and she stole my heart completely. She is the sweetest, mild-mannered, funny, little girl! Kelli and I continue to keep in touch and send pictures etc. Not only have I gained an amazing puppy but a friend in Kelli as well! Btw, Duchess already knew potty was supposed to be outside, we just had to show her where her place outside was. What? A puppy that’s already potty trained?? Thank you Kelli! This dog isn’t afraid of thunder or fireworks, nothing. Kelli is remarkable! I would happily get another pup from her any time and highly recommend her to anyone! Duchess came with a puppy care kit to get her started as well. Fantastic experience all around!!

    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!

    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!!!
