    Kelly and her assistant Stacey are both wonderful! They kept me up to date with photos and Belmont's (formerly Asher) progress as he grew. I suppose he's a little different than most pups as he's a Singleton, so he's a bit shy around new folks and situations, but he'd definitely blossomed into a silly little guy at home! He's playful, loving, and I can see the beginnings of a big, silly personality shining through as he becomes more comfortable and confident.

    Great breeder. Highly recommend. My dog is chip and spayed in great health. Updated on her shots and she is full of joy. Great communication after purchasing the dog which is huge for me.

    Kelly was great! She always responded right away and made this process super easy! Her assistant Stacey flew our new baby Paxton who is now Fonzie all the way to Florida. Stacey was wonderful! Fonzie is so much fun and has a great little personality. We already love him so much. He is loving his 2 cat brothers and everyone is adjusting very well.

    Kelly was great to work with, and very fast with responses. It was supper awesome to FaceTime with our boy before getting him. I had picked Vincenzo who is now named Oreo. He is full of energy and lots of love. He is almost 4 months old now and healthy as can be. He is a very good puppy and already knew how to use pee pads and go outside with a few accidents. He is very smart and can be an escape artist. We love him so much! Thanks Kelly for giving us the best baby to spoil!

    I’ve had my Pom for a year now. No health problems at all thus far (knock on wood) and Kelly was wonderful. We love him to pieces and he gives us loads of joy. I can’t thank Kelly enough for helping to bring this baby into the world so we could love him and be enriched by his love for us.

    Illinois Poms was one of the best experiences I’ve had in getting a dog. Kelly and her assistant were detailed and prompt in their responses to any questions I had and sent photo updates on a weekly basis until I was able to bring my pom to her forever home. I was also able to work with them to find a pickup method that was convenient for our situation. Would definitely recommend this breeder and would buy again from her!
