I'm Nili Y., the breeder behind Kipling Papillons located in Summerville, SC. I am an AKC breeder of refined show quality and pet Papillons. All of my dogs are fully health and DNA tested, including OFA. I love both of these breeds so much. I make sure I am always doing everything I can to ensure they are happy, healthy, and very well-loved.
Q. & A. with Nili
Why did you start breeding?
I’ve been proudly owned by dogs since I was a youngster. Because I’ve enjoyed showing my “kids” so much and have had good success in that endeavor, I had a strong desire to continue those lines. So I started a very selective breeding program. I love what I’ve produced in my new Papillon litters.
What makes your program special?
My dogs are the foundation of my program. I title and train. I also teach obedience to our local dog training club. I maintain relationships with owners of every dog owner and am excited to see them mature and be there to support my puppy families responding to questions and providing advice throughout their pup’s life.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include white black and tan and white and sable. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
