About us

Hi! Welcome to our website!

Just a little about us…
I’m Karen Johnson, owner and breeder at Johnson Kennels.
I have been breeding dogs, of different breeds, for almost 20 years.
I first started with beagles, then malti-poos, then doodles, labs and poodles, and now French Bulldogs!
I love dogs of all breeds but these three breeds have a special place in my heart.

Maybe it started with the poodles that belonged to my cousin when I was a child.
They were always perfectly groomed, nails painted, completely spoiled. I wanted dogs like that!
Delilah was my first doodle, an F1b Shipoo! But we didn’t call them that back then.
She was 3/4 poodle so we called her a poodle mix. She was perfectly paired with Sam, our Maltese boy.
They were truly in love and had beautiful babies together for several years. Some of their offspring
I’m still in contact with today, all of which are over 10 years old.

When I was a teenager my parents had a ‘hand me down’ lab mix named Tonto that used our home
as a drive thru restaurant. He showed up for food and that was about it, but he was a good, sweet boy that
I have never forgotten.

These two breeds, Poodles, and Labrador Retrievers, have earned their place in my heart and live for good.
But however it happened, they are my favorites, and the smartest breeds, in my opinion. However, the crazy little French Bulldogs are a joyful addition!

What started out as a labor of love for my pets has turned into a labor of love for myself and my family as well.
It’s such a joy to nurture and love the parent dogs while they bring forth their puppies that pass on the joy to other families like yours!
