We got our sweet maltipoo Bam Bam from them a little over 6 months ago. The best puppy in the world! Super loving, playful and super smart. We are so thankful!

We got our maltipoo Lulu there a few months back and we love her to death! I had an amazing experience here and have recommended all my friends to get their pups here. This is the only place that made it super convenient for me to find a puppy I love and bring it home the same day. I’ll always be thankful for that

B&C was pleasant experience well knowledgeable on the puppies they sell. The maltipoo I received has been one the smartest and easiest dogs I have ever had and she seems very healthy. A very welcome addition to our family.

My husband and I purchased our baby (Hershey) in May of 2018. We wanted a dog so badly but because of my serious dog allergies, we couldn't adopt due to the fact that no adoption agency we contacted could confirm the breed or parents; no way we would take a risk bringing a new family member in and not being able to keep him. This is what lead us to the "teddy bear" breed (Schichons) and B&C Kennels! I understand that every experience is different but I've seen a lot of unreasonable and negative reviews and I wanted to give mine. Our pup has been 100% healthy (literally not ONE problem) and happy since the day we brought him home! He's received a clear bill of health at EVERY vet visit and is the most happy, fun, and cuddly dog we've ever met. He potty trained SO quickly, and literally we only had 1 accident in our house after we got him- amazing!! Everyone at B&C was a pleasure to work with before and during our visit. We have NO complaints and are SO THANKFUL for B&C for bringing our baby into our lives. We are going to get our baby a sister soon and we already have reached out to B&C regarding our new future family member. Affordable pricing, perfect pups, and wonderful people. Thank you so much to Christie and the rest of B&C! We can't wait to come back soon. *please enjoy some photos of our 1.5 year old baby teddy bear (Hershey). ❤🐶🍫**side note, I was so impressed with them that I recommended them to one of my coworkers after they lost their older dog and they purchased a teddy bear from B&C a few weeks later and had the same experience. ☺**Update** We just got our beautiful little girl Cocoa here on Saturday and everything is going perfectly! Thank you again to everyone at B&C for helping us to complete our fur baby family! Thank you to Savannah for being so helpful and friendly to us on Saturday as well, it was a pleasure to be there. 💕Update 07/2022:Both Hershey and Cocoa are WONDERFUL - and all grown up :')0 health issues, 0 behavioral problems, and ALL love.I've added two updated photos of them (in their harnesses in the car) to show how adorably they've matured.Cocoa lost her brown and became a white little angel puff.Hershey has the same coloring and is our rambunctious and needy little guy.Still beyond grateful for B&C and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a new furbaby.

My Family got an adorable cavapoo puppy, Blu from B & C Kennels this April. He is 4 months old now, and is the sweetest boy! There are so many dog breeders out there, but I'm so happy I found this one. It was hard trying to find a reliable breeder who had pups available because we're going through the COVID-19 pandemic. However B&C kennels did an amazing job communicating with my family, and is doing a great job at following the safety guidelines. B&C is an amazing family owned breeder, that truly cares about their puppies. I highly recommend!!

I bought a teddybear puppy from your kennel almost 8 years ago, and have been fairly happy with my dog. He is very loving and sweet natured. He is so so great with kids and babies! Only issues with him have been health related since he turned about 5–he has significant skin allergies that have gotten increasingly worse (we now manage with Apoquel and medicated shampoo) and a genetic dry eye syndrome that was diagnosed last year, and requires medication.

I purchased a Shih Tzu from them in May. The puppy I got is healthy, well-behaved, and is ALWAYS happy! He's the best.I live in the city, so it was a bit of a drive to get to B&C, but it was worth it! I'd recommend them, and if I get another dog I'd get one from them again. They are easy to get in touch with and schedule an appointment, informative, and have a large property that the puppies can roam.

We are very happy with our family addition. Ziggy will be three years old this October. We purchased him from B&C after a long search of private breeders, pet stores local kennels in the county. Ziggy has been a very healthy, playful and extremely smart puppy. We have had absolutely no problems with him. Choosing the right kennel is a personal choice. However to call it a puppy mill is very harsh. All animal shelters, pet stores and shopping mall pet stores could all be considered puppy mills. They all have puppies, dogs and various animals that they either have bred themselves or have taken in due to families that could no longer care for them. I can tell you our experience with B & C was exceptional. Choosing the right pet for your family is very important. However the time you spend training and loving and feeding your pet is also very important. Ziggy does tricks, is very loving and is a very very happy and healthy guy. Thanks B&C, keep doing what your doing. There will always be Nay Sayers. Enjoy these photos of Ziggy aka ( Mr. Zigfreed Ziggle Zaggles)

We have 2 healthy dogs from this kennel. We love and adore them. We have had nothing but good experiences with the owner/operator. Highly recommend

Great experience! We were not rushed. The owner was very helpful and gave us time to decide on a puppy since my daughter had an allergic reaction while we were there. The owner even mentioned that we go to lunch and come back and view other types of dogs to see if my daughter had another reaction. We left with our teddy bear dog. Our dog is doing great! She loves going for walks and getting belly rubs! I would highly recommend this place!

Christie, Katie and Brian are some of my favorite people. I got my Gidget from them a few years ago. They helped guide me through new dog ownership and even answered questions I had months later. If you are looking for a dog from a breeder that truly cares. THIS IS IT!

You can't get better than b and c kennels! The boss lady was awesome and made the whole process easy from a to z. If you want a great pup from a great breeder look no further. All the puppies were well kept , happy, and beautiful. If you don't wanna support puppy mills and retail puppy stores this is the place to go. I know some of you reading this would prefer to adopt from animal shelters (which I did for my first dog) but sometimes you can't find the specific breed you're looking for and that's how I ended up down this road. I did tons of looking and came upon this gem and I'm so glad I did! Just took my baby doxie poo to the vet and he's in perfect health. Once again b and c thank you so much and I'll definitely send anyone looking your way in the future.

We got our puppy Yorkichon on August 30 of 2019. His name is Jack. At that time he was 4 months old. He is the BEST DOG EVER! Very happy and healthy dog. He brought to our home so much happiness. At B&C Kennels I met the owner (very nice lady) and Brian. Both very professional and friendly. No pressure, you can spend as much time you need. Brian was very helpful and answered all my questions. The place is clean and happy. I would recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a puppy.Thank you so much for giving us a wonderful puppy.

Got my puppy from here and the entire process was awesome! they let me play with the different puppies for about an hour and came back to check and make sure everything was going well. I picked my favorite and they were very helpful and informative with the entire process and I would definitely come back for my next puppy!

Top Notch!!!! We have 2 dogs from B&C, a Maltipoo and a Miniature Toy Poodle. ALL the breeders from there breed for quality, temperament and health. Our little girl is 4 now, and our little boy is coming up on 2. Healthy Healthy pups!!! Fantastic people, they are trustworthy, and are not just trying to "make a buck". Everyone posts a few months after they get their puppy. I thought someone who has had their dogs for few years, it might be helpful to hear about that. We simply will not get another dog, unless it is from them. I would give 10 stars if I could!!!!

We got our little chihuahua girl from here about 7 years ago. It's a very nice facility, clean, accurate. The people who own/run this kennel are extremely friendly and helpful. They produce good quality, healthy dogs here.

Amazing experience! We purchased a black and tan Yorkie from B & C Kennel that we call Archie. Archie has been with us a couple of weeks. We reached out to Brian for food and behavioral suggestions and he was very supportive, responsive and informative. Thank you Brian and the B & C Team for blessing us with Archie!

Our teddy bear(Shiz/Bichon) Vinny is almost a year old. He's a great dog! Doesn't shed at all! Great with kids and very little barking. Thank you!

Purchasing our puppy was made very easy. Staff was very friendly and was not pushy at all. We were given plenty of time as a family to spend with the puppies then further time to narrow it down to our pick puppy. I recommend B&C to anyone looking for a pup. My pup came home healthy and happy.

My family and I lost our old English sheep dog back in February. It was very weird not having a dog in the house since we have had dogs for the past 20 years. When I was looking for a new puppy I came across B&C Kennel & I saw they had 1 more bernedoodle puppy available. I quickly contacted B&C Kennels and they emailed me and called me within a day or two. I was thrilled. I went there a couple days after the phone call to “meet” the puppy and quickly fell in love. They were on top of their game following the social distancing and keeping clean. I took my puppy home In April and she has been nothing but a joy. She is super sweet and loves everyone & everyone loves her! I had never heard of B&C Kennels before this but I highly recommend it to others if you are looking for a new puppy!

We went to B&C to look at getting a companion for our 7 year old Maltese mix who has been an only child his whole life. The staff was so helpful. We brought our dog along so we could be sure to get a pup with the right personality. They were so patient with us and answered all of our many questions. We were very nervous about adding a new dog to our home because of our other pup. We ended up finding the perfect little morkie puppy to bring home. He is honestly the most low maintenance puppy I've ever met. Slept through the night in his crate from day one, leaves our older pup alone most of the time, very cuddly and sociable, rides great in the car, and minimal accidents in the house. I'm waiting for him to have some kind of flaw but he is just perfect so far. I would strongly recommend B&C kennels to anyone. I was so impressed with how clean, knowledgeable, and helpful they are. I will definitely be going here first when the time comes for us to add another fur baby to our family.

They were very friendly, knowledgeable and not overpriced. We got our puppy from here, the chip was includes and they even recommended a vet in our area. We left with the puppy, bag of really good puppy good and at a reasonable price. We have had our teddy bear puppy for over 9 months and she is really cute, quiet and very smart. I highly recommend them if you are looking for very nice puppy's or dogs. They are very helpful and answered all of our questions.

We recently picked up our fawn pug puppy and she’s adorable. We have a one year old pug at home and we lost a senior pug last year so, we are a pug family! We were very happy with our experience...B&C Kennels was informative, organized and the process was seamless. Our puppy was checked our vet just 3 days after we got her; she’s perfectly healthy other than having giardia. And btw that is totally common any time you pick up a puppy! Our last puppy also had this when we picked her up from another reputable breeder. She will take a medicine for six days and be just fine. So I’m really satisfied with this beautiful pug and our experience!

We had a positive experience at B&C Kennels. They were patient and helped us find a breed that was just right for our family. Time was spent explaining about the temperament, etc about each breed they had available. We ended up taking home a three and a half month old Shihpoo. She's such a we'll behaved puppy and is everything we wanted in a dog! Highly recommend this place!

B&C Kennels is a first rate company. They treated us with respect and were open about the schnauzer that we eventually purchased. Working with their staff was a very pleasant and effortless process. The dog we brought how was healthy and has become a great addition to our family. I would recommend this kennel to anyone who is interested in a new pet...!!!
