"Where Health and Temperaments Come First."

World Class Puppies Since 1998
"We cannot say enough about Petit Jean puppies ! After doing countless hours of research and talking to numerous people, Petit Jean is the only place that we knew we could trust with finding new family members for our home! Having four small children we had to be certain that the temperament and breed of our puppy would be the perfect fit !! We were beyond thrilled with our first baby that we went back a year later and got two more puppies! These dogs are the most loving and affectionate dogs we have ever been around and everyone that comes over says the same! We have referred numerous friends and family members and will continue to do so! 

The owner is amazing and we are so happy to be a part of the Petit Jean family now!"

-Brittany and Drew Brees (NFL Quarterback, New Orlean Saints)

Meet Amber! 


     Amber Shipp has been in the veterinary field of healthcare for 20+ years. As a Certified Veterinary Technician, Amber originally began her journey with PJP caring for Laura’s puppies and adult dogs at the veterinary hospital Laura used. Years later, Amber was named as Laura’s kennel manager and stepped into her leadership role at PJP with background knowledge on all the dogs, the puppy protocols and a special set of skills needed to care for all of the babies! When Laura and her husband Chris decided on retirement, Laura passed her labor of hard work and love over to Amber as the new owner of Petit Jean Puppies in 2023. Since then, Amber has built a brand new facility and state of the art nursery and moved Petit Jean Puppies just West of Perryville off of HWY 60 W.  

     Amber and her family live on-site, providing 24hr care to all of the animals. They collectively own and operate Pleasant Grove Cattle Company, running a cow-calf operation. In her spare time, Amber likes to participate in cattle sortings with her horses along with trail rides and other equine activities. She has 2 French Bulldogs, Raudi and Stella which required special care at a young age. Also, a Mini Australian Shepherd, Gus and the very first baby born at the new location of PJP, a Cavapoo- Turtle.

Our Dogs


They aren't just dogs, they are family! We love them and give them the best care they deserve! Our adult dogs are on quality food, heartworm prevention, and flea/tick prevention. They are all current on their vaccinations and rabies shots. They have their teeth cleaned annually and are groomed regularly. They receive regular vet care. We continually improve the breeds we offer by only breeding healthy parents with great temperaments. When they are 9-12 months old, they undergo OFA (Orthopedic Foundation for Animals) exams for preliminaries and/or certifications for their Cardiac and Patellas (knees). We also perform DNA genetic testing on each dog by sending their DNA samples off to Paw Print Genetics, EMBARK Vet Lab or Animal Genetics. By doing this, we can rule out a lot of the breed's common faults. Many of our bloodlines are proven healthy, and have been perfected over the years. If we ever find an issue in one of our parent dogs, we have them spayed/neutered and placed in pet homes so we don't pass on any problems. "If you aren't going to improve the breed, why breed at all?" We retire our dogs between the age of  5 and 6 years old and spay/neuter them and place them in loving pet homes where they can enjoy a long, happy life.

Who We Are...


In today's world, it is hard to know who you can trust--and who you can't. We are the REAL DEAL!  We are a legitimate business and pay Federal Income tax and Arkansas State Sales Tax. We have the same website, same business name, same phone numbers. 

Don't support puppy mills! Buy from a professional, not a hobbyist or a backyard breeder that does not know what they are doing and will breed just any pair of dogs, and also not put money back into the health of their dogs and program. Support breeders that do business legally, and who devote their lives to dogs. We rescue when we can, and we will help you re-home your puppy if needed. Together, we can make a positive impact on the pet industry.

Our main goal is producing healthy and happy ​puppies for your family. We ask that all interested families complete our puppy application and be approved to purchase. You will be asked questions about your previous and current dogs, if you have a fenced yard, agree to spay/neuter, and your vet's phone number for a reference. After all, we just want the best for them, and we always agree to take them back if you can no longer care for them.   

WE DO TAKE PREFERENCE TO LOCAL SALES AND HOMES WITH PREVIOUS DOG EXPERIENCE AND THAT DON'T LEAVE THEM HOME ALL DAY ALONE!
