An Early Birthday Present !!

We collected our King Charles Spaniel on Saturday.
Lovely dog friendly staff, who were very knowledgeable and so helpful.
" Bertie" was chipped and came with all the relevent information, food and puppy pads( we had only visited the kennels to have a look !!! )
Though at the time they were very busy, we still received excellent service and I would not hesitate to recommend Kelly's Kennels to any one looking for a beautiful puppy.
PS "Bertie" may need a sister to keep him company in the future..... we will be back xx

Please do not buy a puppy from this…

Please do not buy a puppy from this disgusting puppy farm. Stop putting money in these greedy breeders pockets. Do your research about this place. A quick google will show evidence of this being a puppy farm. They were even exposed on a bbc documentary!

Thank you for your review.
We are not a puppy farm, yes we are a breeding establishment and breed more than one breed, but all our parents and puppies have the best all around care by our very knowledgeable and very well trained staff. Yes we have two premises one here and one in Northern Ireland. This is not hidden, and states it on our website.
Also please get your facts correct before leaving a review on a place you must not know much about other than reading stuff on social media that people write which also clearly don’t know much about us and how we operate, as there certainly wasn’t any BBC documentary on Kellyskennels.
We are above board and follow all our protocols with our license.
Thanks

Don’t not recommend

Don’t not recommend
We bought our beautiful cavapoochon from here.
She is amazing, she is a beautiful part of our family just as we wanted BUT when we got her home we took her to the vets, we were advised she had a umbilical hernia, and she would need to be spayed. How sad in a pup so young, the vet told us to contact Kelly as they shouldn’t breed the mum again. So we did contact them their response was “we will pay for it but when you buy from us, they are as pets not for breeding” well we had no intentions of breeding her, just sad she already had health condition at a couple of months old.
Then a few months later, her leg stated to displace out of its socket, so she would run and start limping until it could get in the correct position to slot back in.
The vet said it needing operating in as was quite severe, it cost us 1000s luckily we were insured but I’m not sure how they are claiming healthy dogs when out lovely little one has needed so many OPs before even 18months old.
We ignored all the comments bout it being a puppy farm, viewed the place it looked nice and clean but we Wish we would have listened although we wouldn’t change our Pup now, I’m annoyed I helped fund them. There is an article in the Belfast telegraph I think it is, that directly names Kelly’s kennel as getting its pups from their in Ireland. More research for our next pup definitely.

DO NOT RECOMMEND!!

We got one of our dogs a few years ago from Kelly’s. We didn’t get to see where the dogs were being kept (this was before the new kennels) and we couldn’t see the mother of the litter as were told she was ‘out on a walk’. We love our little one to bits and thankfully our pup was healthy so no issues on that front. Since then, we have spoken to a few people, some that purchased pups from Kelly’s (that had similar behavioural issues as our pup - nervous of other dogs/people, submissive) and some in the veterinary industry that told us they were a puppy farm. We were so upset when we realised our mistake. We thought that having a licence from the council and working closely with a vet meant everything was above board but having recently watched the BBC documentary ‘The Dog Factory’ it has shown us this really isn’t the case. We realise now that we should have done more research and went into it very naively. We have since expanded our canine family and decided to go with a different breeder, for obvious reasons. We got to see the parents/observe them interacting with the pups, they came from a really loving, stable family environment and we got to visit as many times as we wished (spending time with parents and pups together) - ask tons of questions as well as receiving paperwork. We did notice differences between the two in terms of confidence/development etc. We are glad to say after taking our first pup to lots of training classes and with a lot of love/patience and guidance - there has been a huge improvement. She is a very happy soul - still a bit standoffish with some people but I think considering, she has done us all proud. The training classes we attended and information we received from a dog behaviourist really helped and opened our eyes. I would say to others getting a puppy, please do thorough research and watch the BBC documentary called ‘The Dog Factory’. Don’t let these licences lull you into a false sense of security as we did. I hope someone finds this review helpful and prevents others making the same mistakes we did as first time dog parents. We would not go back to Kelly’s Kennels nor would we recommend them to anyone!

We got our beautiful cavapoochon just over 2 years ago now and he is totally amazing. With in 48 hours he was fully house trained day and night. He is in perfect health and so loving. Kelly's kennels were brilliant when we bought him and you could see that all the dogs were totally in good health and looked after.

Puppy Farm

Unfortunately, the company keeps denying on Trust Pilot the way they get their dogs.

Belfast Telegraph wrote an article on this subject. The BBC has done a documentary. You can google them both. Kellys Kennels needs to be more transparent.

We bought our cockapoo from Kelly’s over two years ago. He is such a delightful member of our family. From the moment we picked him up he has been a dream. I was always against buying a dog from a breeding kennels, but everyone I spoke to regarding Kellys’s had positive feedback in regards to temperament and health of their dogs. Would definitely recommend.

Thank you got your review.
Our dogs and puppies are very well looked after, get the best all round care day and night, by our fully trained staff, they live in great conditions in a very large kennels especially built, with an indoor compartment and over shaded or door compartment for them to be able to play in or out door. Access to plenty of toys. Do proper research into a business before you slander them a puppy farm. We don’t experience sick puppies but when any of our customers have experienced any issues we have always been there to support no matter what the situation is.

Gorgeous golden cocker spanials

We bought a cocker spaniel from kellys 3 weeks ago. All puppys were kept in tidy and clean conditions. After about 3-4 days my puppy was already peeing/pooping outside. We were so impressed we actually ended up going back for his sibling so ended up with the 2 together! Very helpful the staff are all down to earth people would definitely recommend. Thank you kellys x

I purchased my Cockalier puppy almost two weeks ago and so far so good . We have named him Cooper and he is a dream , from the second day I brought him home he goes outside to do his business , he now sits and does not jump up , very happy to be relaxing or just playing with his toys . Cooper sleeps all night and doesn’t make a sound , we have left him alone and again he’s very happy to just sleep and play with his toys until we return home .
My son purchased his brother Lincoln and again he is doing amazing , both extremely clever and loving puppies.
The kennels were spotless and again the staff were very helpful and friendly .
I would highly recommend Kelly’s kennels , great staff , beautiful well bred puppies and again so happy we decided to visit .

Firstly I would like to give a massive thanks to Kelly's Kennels for bringing the brightness back into our lives. We got our absolute dream pooch, she was originally taken by another family and brought back to Kelly's for 1 day before we took her home. I had done alot of research for months on Kelly's & the breed I wanted. I spoken to them several times over the months and they was extremely helpful supportive and welcoming. We visited the farm few times, played and handled all different breeds spoken to staff and customers all lovely, anything you wanted to know they was there answering questions.

Our Cavapoo (Pepper) is now 4months and we couldn't be more inlove with her. She was welcomed into our home with two older children & two cats. She's got plenty of fur friends who she see's daily on walks and days out too. She receives alot of attention when she's out due to her friendly nature. And I might be biased but she's absolutely gorgeous 🥰

Would recommend Kellys

Thought all the staff were very friendly and allowed us to spend time to decide if puppy was the right choice for us. Pleased to say he is perfect. Brilliant puppy, so clever and learning very quickly. We love him very much and will give him the best life. Thank you so much Kelly’s.

Fully recommend Kelly’s Kennels…

The staff at Kelly’s Kennels were extremely professional from the very first second; knowledgeable, polite, friendly, allowing time, and just made our visit so stress free and enjoyable.
We have had two cockerpoos from Kelly’s and both are amazing and settling in well.

Kelly serious is always on hand to help and nothing is too much bother.

We fully recommend Kelly’s and their very healthy wonderful puppys.

Good luck!

yorkiepoo

Excellent experience from going to view the pups to picking up our new family member.
Staff where very good and gave us plenty of time to choose, even set up a small enclosure so we could play with them. Fell in love with "Coco" who is a yorkiepoo. She is just a joy to be around, was house trained in about 10 days and is so happy she just plays , like puppies should do, all the time unless asleep !
Would recommend Kelly's to anyone looking for a new pup, no complaints whatsoever.

We purchased the most beautiful cockapoo from Kelly’s kennels. She’s an absolute dream, such a well behaved loving dogs and she has the best relationship with my two children. I also contacted Kelly’s Kennels weeks after taking Stella home, as we was struggling to find a vet what offered the DHP and could fit us in without months waiting list. Kelly’s kennels gave us the best advise and also recommended a vet which fitted Stella in the same day ♥️
