Meet the breeder

I'm JANET B., the breeder behind KnJ Precious Paws LLC located in Aurora, MO. Having dogs in our lives is such a blessing. We find so much fulfillment in providing that same companionship to other homes! We do our best to make sure that our puppies find the perfect families/ individuals with lifestyles that will complement these amazing breeds.

Q. & A. with JANET

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Dogs have always been an important part of my life. I am fortunate to live in a rural area and be able to raise and share these amazing creatures with others.

  • What makes your program special?

    I know how special dogs are. I truly believe that they are a living example of God's unconditional love. The joy and companionship that they bring to their people on a daily basis is what made us want to raise amazing puppies and give others the same lifelong companionship we experience on a daily basis.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Poodle puppies include toy and miniature sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Maltese puppies include white and white and tan. Morkie puppies are black & tan tri-color. Poodle puppies include apricot, brown, cafe au lait, cream, red, white, and parti. Yorkshire Terrier puppies include chocolate, tan and white and black and gold. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.

    It is not possible for me to add another positive review about Janet that says anything different than what has already been said. Janet is everything that Good Dog says about their breeders. I got Maeve, a Maltese, a week ago. This puppy is even better than I expected. Janet's followup is really commendable. She is willing to continue helping me to be a good dog mom.

    Janet made the entire experience of bringing home my puppy absolutely wonderful. She arranged professional door-to-door delivery and packed a cozy blanket, food, toys, and other thoughtful goodies to make Nikki feel at home. She even followed up personally to make sure everything was going well. After 12 years since my last Maltese, this was the perfect way to start a new chapter. Highly recommend! 🐾✨

    Janet was terrific! I would like to give her the highest rating possible. She always answered all of my questions immediately. She drove 2 hours round trip to meet us closer to our home. When we met her & our new puppy she gifted us with a wonderful goody bag full of toys & essentials. Cedric is such a happy & healthy puppy! Search no further for your new puppy than JanetBailey!

    Janet with KnJ Precious Paws is an absolute pleasure to work with. She welcomed my husband and me when we visited our pup. She kept us updated with videos and video chat We picked up our Daisy today and Janet had everything ready for us all the paperwork and even some goodies for Daisy. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who wants a beautiful healthy puppy.
