Meet the breeder

I'm Kevin J., the breeder behind Ted E. Bear Patch located in Bradford, OH. I offer top-quality Shichon puppies for families who share the same love and passion that I do for these lovely companions. My focus is on maintaining the Shichon standard by raising sound pups with excellent temperaments and great health. I love these dogs and want only the best for them!

Q. & A. with Kevin

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My wife, Kenda, and I decided to start breeding when we became empty nesters. We already had a Shichon as a family pet, so we decided to add to the family and share our love of this breed with others!
  • What makes your program special?

    We are a small breeder who love our dogs and they are part of our family. We take great care of them and they live in our home with us and are a part of our daily lives. Our new litters are just a blessing to have around until they find their furrever home.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, communication was clear and warm, and I could see how much care and love they put into raising their puppies. My puppy came home healthy, well-socialized, and full of personality. He adjusted so quickly to his new home, which shows how thoughtfully he was raised. The breeder also sent us home with familiar items and plenty of helpful guidance, which made the transition so smooth. I feel so lucky to have found them. If you’re looking for a breeder who genuinely loves their dogs and wants the best for them, I wholeheartedly recommend Kevin. My puppy has already brought so much joy into my life, and I’m forever grateful.

    Ted E Bear Patch was great. From my first interaction with them, they were prompt with responses and photos of my pup. This was the first time I worked with an out of state breeder and it was a very smooth transaction. They even helped with a fabulous flight nanny to get my fur baby safely from Ohio to Boston. We could not be more in love with our Hank. Love him to pieces already. I would recommend Ted E Bear Patch without hesitation.

    I purchased a Shichon from Kevin. She is absolutely adorable, good natured, playful, and healthy. The adoption process was very easy and Kevin sent me pictures and videos often. He always responded immediately to any questions I had. He also referred me to a flight nanny who was very reasonable and sweet. I would recommend adopting your puppy from Kevin. I give the whole experience 5 stars.
