Welcome to Awesome Paws, where quality breed kittens and puppies are ready for adoption. We are a family-owned business with over three decades of experience in training puppies, adult dogs, and ragdoll kittens. At Awesome Paws, you can find top-notch home-trained breeds of Moyen or medium-sized Poodle, Aussiedoodle, Bernedoodle, Doodle Puppies, and Ragdoll Kittens in multiple colors and patterns. We believe these pets are more than animals, so you can make them a cherished family member.
We aim to find loving families for our puppies, best-quality dogs, and kittens. We raise them with exceptional love and care at our home, with proper crate training and housebreaking, so they will be a loving member of your family. Our passion for raising healthy, happy, and well-socialized pets makes our facility services unmatchable. Every dog you adopt will be well-mannered and friendly, so you do not have to worry about jumping, mouthing, biting, or constant barking.
Hello. I am Joanne Heritsch, and I have been a dedicated dog breeder in Illinois for over 35 years. I enjoy nurturing these puppies and kittens until they are ready for their new families. I am very particular about the temperament and health of animals for breeding. I do not take timid or aggressive animals for breeding.
Transparency is the key at Awesome Paws. Therefore, as a new owner, you will get a briefing on your new pet, including their strengths and concerns that you might know. My priority is always to match pets with the right owners ready to take responsibility.
I breed a female for only 2-3 heat cycles before spaying her. Then finds her a loving forever home. However, I always keep one of her puppies to maintain quality bloodlines.
My pets are more than animals for me. Therefore, I ensure that each puppy, dog, or kitten goes to a home where they can adjust well and get the love they deserve. Every owner signs a contract with me to send back their pets to me when they do not want to keep them anymore to prevent them from going to shelter homes. Then, depending on the situation at the time, they will either stay with me or go to a new home.
After taking your pet home, you will receive complete support for questions about settling it in a new environment. Additionally, I offer a training fee upon request to train your puppy before taking it home. The training period might consist of 2-3 months. You can file a separate form for training your puppy.
As experienced dogs and ragdoll kittens breeders, we take the health of our animals seriously. Therefore, all of our pets are of excellent health. Get excellent health guarantees for our pets to enjoy companionship for many years.
Check our purchase policy for more information. We aim to ensure the well-being of our pets and the satisfaction of their new families. Enjoy a transparent adoption process.
