My Grandmother 40+ years ago started raising beautiful little Chihuahuas. She spread her interest of dogs to her daughter, my aunt, Janet Bordelon and my mother, Dotty Gaspard. As a child, I had no chance to escape the tradition. Dogs were and still are a huge part of my life. Growing up I had lots of responsibilities tending to these dogs, which at the time felt more like a chore. However, that experience taught me most of what I know now. My Aunt, who owns a professional kennels, holds so much knowledge. Working for my aunt as a teen, she introduced me to raising the teacups, breeding and of course my love for Chihuahuas! After finishing college, my high school sweetheart and I married and Chris and I adopted my family's Chihuahua breeding line. Kelley's Kennels first Kennel began in 2002. (click link to see)

For seven long years Chris and I focused on working hard and our love of dogs. The were our children and went everywhere's with us! This is our three house dogs, Nola the chihuahua in the back and Roxy and Zoey our Schnauzers.

Well, in 2007 we found our dream home! But, geez... Now we have to rebuild the kennel!
|
After, two long years later, we have a new 30x30 kennel facility. It's more industrial as this is the last kennel we plan to build!

Soon after moving in our bigger house Chris and I began thinking of the day we could expanding our love. Christen Kelley was born shortly after in June 2009.

Man, how life has changed! We thank god daily for our blessings! And thank all the folks that helped us along our way!
