What Our Puppy Parents Have Say

Our sweet Bella is 11 pounds of pure joy-not only for our family- but our whole neighborhood. The next door neighbor, who has always been afraid of animals, visits her at least twice a day and brings all her friends to meet her. She tells us all the time she thinks Bella has saved her life! She gives “love therapy” to everyone she meets and loves children especially. I can’t say enough about what a wonderful and caring breeder we had in Jenn Howe Hill. From the moment we expressed an interest in a puppy, Jenn was sending us information, updates, puppy pictures and advice. Bella was completely socialized when we got her, slept through the night from day one, and was well adjusted to start a life without her puppy family. The paperwork sent by Jenn was unbelievably thorough and her requirements for adoption well thought out to assure the utmost safety and care for both the breeder, pet parents, and fur baby. She keeps in touch by email and phone which is greatly appreciated, and welcomes any questions or concerns we may have about Bella’s development. She is a gem to work with and her love, dedication, and faith are evidenced by the lengths she goes to to insure the puppies are healthy, happy, and a blessing to every new pet parent. Thank you, Jenn, for our newest little heartthrob.

Our adoption experience with little Luna was wonderful! I loved getting pictures and updates often and seeing your family love them to get them ready. Luna is full of kisses, loves us both, but prefers Fred (although I’m the one who feeds her and gives her treats!) She loves all her toys and loves to play ball. There are too many things to list about what we love most. She is absolutely adorable! Our granddaughter styles her hair and puts pig tails and bows and they can’t get over how she just sits and lets her do it. She is lazy and is not a morning person. She is such a baby. Best thing we ever did!!!

I love everything about having Harley Jo in my home and everyone she meets loves her too! She’s attentive, loyal and follows me around the farm. She has a kitty brother, Davey, and sleeps with him in her crate. She is a wonderful companion and is up for anything I get into. Harley enjoys riding the motorcycle in her special backpack, riding shotgun in my truck, mows the grass with me and even hops onto the 4-wheeler. I take her to stores and farmers markets and everyone dotes over her. Just today I went to have my tire changed and a little boy asked to see her and she was full of kisses. She has a blast playing with toys; fetch is her favorite. It’s nice that ShihPoos don’t shed and that she can curl up on my lap for pets. She’s an alert-dog and gets my attention when someone is outside before I even know they are there. I would recommend Palmetto Moon Puppies because Jennifer trains the dogs from the day they are born and it shows. Harley was well-socialized and on her way to being housebroken. She was also used to the crate and getting groomed including hair cuts, nail trims and generally being handled by people. She is amazing!

We couldn’t be happier with Charlie and the experience with Palmetto Moon Puppies. From the very beginning, it was clear how much care and love they put into raising their dogs. We were thrilled with how well-socialized, healthy and full of personality we found Charlie to be. Jenn is honest, attentive, and extremely knowledgeable. Charlie's transition to our family was very smooth. I am sure this is due to the fact that the whole family at PMP is involved in the process. Time and attention spent with the puppies makes a huge difference. I would recommend PMP to anyone looking for a happy, healthy puppy. Their dedication and compassion shine through in every detail, and we’re so grateful for the joy our little Shih Poo has brought into our lives.
We Love What We Do!
Shih-Poo Puppies
Shihtzu–Poodle pups, AKA ShihDoodles or ShihPoos, are downright amazing little companions, bringing the best of both breeds: intelligence, loyalty, and playfulness all wrapped up in one fluffy package.
These sweeties are hypoallergenic and have hair instead of fur, making them perfect for folks who want less shedding and more snuggling. These darlings need regular grooming to keep that beautiful coat in tip-top shape, usually every three to four months. This can easily be done at home.
They fit right into just about any living situation, from wide-open country homes to cozy apartments, and they’ll warm up the place with their charm in a heartbeat. Always alert, they’ll make sure you know when someone’s knockin’ at the door, though they quiet down soon enough and get right back to their favorite pastime—napping. And oh my stars, do they love to sleep, sometimes up to 20 hours a day, curled up like a little biscuit beside their favorite person.
Even though they’re friendly with everyone, they often latch on tight to one special family member, giving that person an extra dose of devotion. They’re gentle with children and get along wonderfully with other household animals, making them a real blessing in a busy home.
Highly trainable and eager to learn, they thrive on structure and enjoy a good challenge, so it’s important to teach them manners early—or they’ll be the ones running the show.
And with a yearly vet check-up to keep these little butter beans healthy, they’ll stay in tail-waggin’ shape for many years to come! We just LOVE them and know you will too!

We are a CKC Preferred Breeder and have carried this distinction for years
This gives verification from an external source that we are a reputable and responsible breeder. All of our parent dogs have extensive pedagrees to ensure the best traits are passed down to the next generations. We work closely with the CKC from birth to homing and beyond.
We strive to produce happy, healthy best friends
When responsible breeders partner with responsible owners, animals receive lifelong care. CKC empowers breeders and educates owners.
Fraud Protection: As a CKC Preferred Breeder, clients can rest assured we are who we say we are, and do what we say we do. Period. Many people find us after being scammed by so-called breeders offering “chep deals now.” It’s sad enough to waste hard-earned money and sadder still to be left with no companion too. With PMP, parents not only get a best friend, but an experience to remember forever! We aim to make the puppy process as exciting and joy-filled as possible.
We want the BEST for our pets and Parents because we love them!
High Quality, Affordable Pups
Because we are a private, direct-sales, responsible breeder, we can pass those savings on to our pet parents. This means we charge half of what retail stores charge all while exposing pups to the sights, smells, and sounds of daily life in a home within a family. Small numbers means greater margin for attention. Pups receive early neurological stimulation, are used to a crate, and know to use a designated potty area. They are also trained not to bite hands or feet.
Being a breeder is not a hobby, it’s a lifestyle full of learning, building relationships, mentorship, sacrifice, and love- it’s not to be taken lightly. We want only the best temperaments to pass to the next generations.
That’s why we have a spay/neuter agreement, which anyone who works with us signs. Every fur-baby MUST be altered by 1 year of age. Pup Parents provide proof at that time. CKC will also not register dogs who are products of unauthorized breeding and promptly notify the kennel associated. This again keeps innocent dogs out of shelters and terrible puppy mill situations
Additionally, every pupcake we bake comes with a LIFETIME SURRENDER CLAUSE. An open-door policy means pups can come back to be rehomed. Microchipping before pups leave our care increases the odds they will be returned if lost.
Raising quality puppies is not for the faint of heart! It requires education, patience, and love. We pour abundant, intentional care into each little darling, and we are proud of the companions we steward.
