I'm Mary Ann K., the breeder behind Kerley's Kuties located in Plymouth, IL. We decided to start breeding to share the best possible puppies with excellent personalities, temperament, and most of all health! Each of our dogs has brought so much happiness to us throughout their lives. They are being raised here at home with excellent socialization. We want to do our part to produce wonderful, healthy dogs that can bring other people joy as well, and we strive to provide each of our puppies with loving homes where they can live happy lives.
Q. & A. with Mary Ann
Why did you start breeding?
I have never had children so enjoy having the baby puppies around the house somewhat similar to having little babies around the house. Of course dogs are wonderful companions for all of us!
What makes your program special?
The dogs are living in the home with me and very used to people's lives.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

Everything went really smooth with Mary Ann and Spunky, who is now Riggs. She was waiting for us with him when we arrived to pick him up! I had a Bichon prior so we were familiar with the breed.
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
