My name is Stacy Collins Owner, Breeder, and Mid-woof here at TLC Puppy Love where a puppy only knows love from birth till they go to their forever home with you.
You may wonder why I do this, it’s not the money if so I would get so much more for my puppies with all the hours I put into a day work. But it’s the love of what I do and the joy I see in people faces when they meet their new family member. The joy after reading emails, text and seeing pictures of my grand pups in their new family. I have clients from the first puppy that still keep up with me. Some even come back and get a second puppy and so many refer me to family and friends.
But my real joy is when I am doing what I love best being a mid-woof. That’s right I have a real name this is when a person hand deliver puppies into this beautiful world our God created. People ask me can’t a dog deliver pups by their self? They can but that is my favorite part and I would feel cheated if I missed out on the delivery. But I also do it because smaller dogs can run into problems delivering a puppy and needs help getting it out. That’s where I come in, my job is once I see the puppy coming I take over and do what I can to deliver a strong healthy pup for mommy, then cut open the bag, clamp and cut the cord and clean them up. Once I see it is a healthy puppy I get them started nursing. This frees mommy up for energy to take care of them in the weeks to come. Within an hour of birth I cut the dew claws and if the breed requires dock the tail. This way the nerve ending are not all connected making less pain for puppy. But that is just when my work begins.
It takes time and energy caring for expecting moms, but more so when she delivers, because now you have puppies. I always want them in a clean environment so clean bedding and air are so important.
Once puppies start potty training my work increases because now there are trays to keep clean too. Then separation training starts and work increases greatly. Now instead of one playpen, bedding, dishes and potty trays to clean for the litter it’s one per puppy multiplying my work greatly. But to know I have presented you with a well adjusted puppy starting their training and not getting stressed when left alone or crying all night, makes everything I do worth it!
My mom told me once, “You know when you’re working in your gift, because no matter how hard or how many hours you work you still love it.” She is right I love it even thou my plans get interrupted at the last minute because a mom goes into labor, or my days are usually 18 hour days, and even when I miss sleep because a mom decides it’s time to deliver her puppies right when I lay my head on a pillow and I have to get right back up. The truth is I LOVE MY JOB! I love the satisfaction of knowing I help make a family happy with a well adjusted puppy for years to come.
In 1982 I had Chow Chows and started breeding for the first time. I knew I found what I loved doing. Only to be disappointed after getting so sick and test proved I was highly allergic to dog hair and dandruff. How sad after a year I had to stop. Years passed by when only a fond memory of what I loved.
Then in 2007 I discovered there was hypoallergenic and non-shedding dog. I was so excited I was going to try this again but started slowly. After studying the breeds I found Yorkshire (Yorkies) were also good for people with asthma so that how I started, no problems so I added the sweet Shih Tzu still good then the Maltese. Finally I was talked into the poodle breed; I have to tell you till this time I didn’t even think I liked poodles. But now I absolutely love my poodles they really think they are human and so smart. So now I am on my way and years later I am still well.
All I can say is, “Thank you God for making a dog for those of us with allergies!”
Within the first year people started asking me about Specialty Designer Dogs, not sure what they were asking I was quickly educated. These Designer pups are my best sellers and especially if it has poodle in it.
I learn so much about dogs, puppies and the delivery every day. The more I learn, the more I can educate my clients. So why wouldn’t I love my job. I look forward to meeting you and pairing you up the breed that is perfect for you!
With all this said I have to add how much I love my family for backing me up with what I love doing. They have accepted the fact that plans can change in a minute, and long vacations are few and never. Our home is filled with furry babies (but we keep it smelling nicely!). My family gives me and my puppies grace during separation time, when the puppies can be loud until they learn to mind their manners. But still my family stands behind me, supports me and loves our babies. What more could a woman ask for?
Where are you located? What puppies do you have available?
Sincerely,
Kimberly DeVine Ulery

Hi! I am interested In a Shihpoo-do you ever have clients out of state? We are in New Jersey. 🙂
Jana
I enjoyed talking to you tonight and believe we can have the perfect Shihpoo. This litter estimated adult weight is between 6-8 lbs with Brownie being the smallest and may only be 5lbs.
Feel free to call me back again tomorrow.
Stacy
904-838-9628
Hi Stacy, I was wondering do you ever have any Cock-a-poos? Thank you
No I don’t because I have allergies to puppies so everything I have has to be non shedding and hypo allergenic.
Stacy
Hi Stacy. I’m looking to get a little brother or sister for our 18 month old malshi. How exactly does this adoption process work? Do we have to meet? Do you need to see our home? Our schedules? How does it all work?
Thanks for your help!
I have some adorable male Malshi too! Our adoption process is simple. I do not need to see your home. I like to speak to you first to make sure this is the type of puppy you really want so no regrets later. Since you already have a Malshi you pass there. I like to know if you ever add dogs and how long or was it just the puppy stage then you get tired of them since I adopt out for them to be forever pups. Well you have a 18 month you pass there.
I like to meet my clients if you live close and that allows you visitation with your baby for bonding. But if you love far away phone, text email conversations are also acceptable. If you have means of Video stream we can facetime, skype or tango. This is not to be a hard adoption but a wonderful experience of bringing a little more joy into someone family. So let me know if you want to move forward look at the 4 males available and their eyes should be opening anytime at which point I will take new pics too. Please feel free to call me anytime at 904-838-9628.
If you decide you want to place $100 deposit on one you can call me with a credit card or go on paypal with my email and please pay as family and friends.
Blessings Stacy Collins

Hey! I know it’s difficult to know exact dates of things but I’m looking for a puppy for my daughter’s 12th birthday. We are not 100% stuck on a certain breed. We will need the puppy the last week of September. Do you have any plans already set for puppies to be born and ready towards the end of September…? Please let me know asap. Thank you, Marcy

Looking for a imperial shih tzu femal white with tan or brown. I have an 9 yr old and she lost her sister in June. I have delivered 2 sets of shih zues myself years ago. We Ave dog parks and plenty of room for walks. I live in Baymeadows in Jacksonville
What are ur costs
I only have one her name is Miracle I usually sell them for $1750 but have her at $1500 because right now one nostril is smaller so she snorts I have sold Shih Tzu with small nostrils before and their nose opened up. She also has a small umbilical hernia vet has checked it and said its just a ottie belly button. I just sold one yesterday that was 4 months old who had an umbilical hernia that stretched out as he got older and was no longer. So both of these could grow out but in case that doesn’t happen I discounted $250 making her $1500 She will be 8-10 lbs. She has soft thick hair. Let me know if you want to come meet her. I’m not that far from you as I’m close to the airport.

Hi Kristie,
I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your puppy. That is just heartbreaking.

Our puppies are $1750 or $2000 depending on the size,color and breed. They come with a 1 year health guarantee against any birth defects up to the price of your puppy. Our puppies are vaccinated and wormed and seen by our vet at 8 weeks of age when they get their health certificate and nose to tail check up. You are allowed weekly visitations to visit with your puppy until he/she is ready to go at 8 weeks of age. This helps the puppy get to know your scent and voice!
Hello
Do you have puppies available now? If yes what breeds? Can I bring my family to pick one this weekend or next?
Hello! Here is everyone we have available
https://tlcpuppylove.com/category/puppies-available/
I noticed the different breeds you have. I would like to know if you have heard of a “Mauxie”? Its a Miniature Maltese/ Doxie mix. They are really the perfect dogs. I adopted one from a shelter & every one asks me about my dog. I was wondering if you have considered this breed? They ate very rare to find, but are the absolutely best!
Unfortunately, Dachshunds are not good for people with allergies.
Hi, my sister, Suzanne Via, bought an Imperial ShihTzu from you several years ago. We love him dearly. We are extremely interested in Lucus. Where is he located? May I put a deposit down on him today?
Thank you for your time.
Amy Womack
Hi Amy,
Unfortunately we no longer have Lucus. I realized that I never updated his post to “Sold” but he went to his forever home back in January.
We are hoping to have another Shih Tzu litter this summer.
Hi Stacy,
This past fall I lost my 17 1/2 year old toy poodle. My was broken, and I wasn’t sure I could do another dog. I miss the joy of having him around, and now I’m truly an empty nester. I also work from home, so for the first time in a long time I have plenty of time for a sweet little pup.This summer I’m moving to the Tampa Bay Area and hope to get a female maltipoo puppy for my Christmas gift to myself. I’ve always wanted a female, but breeders always suggested that males were better with kids. I know it’s early, but you are the first breeder I feel really good about based on your site, so I thought I’d reach out. I’ll be in Jacksonville in October, so hope to visit but wanted any helpful information you might have.
Peace and blessings to you.
I am so sorry to hear of your loss! Give me a call with any questions you have 904-838-9628
I can put you on our waiting list for a female Maltipoo for around Christmas time if you would like.
You are also welcome to come to us for a meet and greet anytime.
Do you have any apricot maltipoo puppies?
Here are our available Maltipoos
https://tlcpuppylove.com/category/puppies/maltipoo-available-puppies/
Hello,
I am looking for a female, black, teacup malsipoo (no more than 5lbs. full grown to bring into my family. I have read many of the comments on your site and was wondering by chance if this type of ”doggy daughter” is an option. I would like to bring her into my family between the months of 9/19 & 12/19 of possible. Any information you can provide is greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Right now I have some ready to go in August that will be 6-8lbs fully grown and some in Sept 7-9lbs. We rarely have teacup Malshipoo but I can put you on our waiting list if you would like
Hi, Stacy –
Thank you for the quick response. I would love to be added to the waiting list. I am very invested in getting a Malshipoo puppy daughter in my life. Thank you so much for your time.
Pip the black and white female very interested in her but do u have her parents on premises??? If so can u send me pics. I want to see what they look like please
Yes I don’t expect her to last long
I’ll send pics of parents later after we finish preparing for the storm

Stacy
Hi,
Do you have any morki poos available?
Yes you can see who we have available here!

Greetings Stacy,
We are contemplating a new companion to our 4 year old standard poodle (Finley) after losing our peekapoo of 15 years. B4 filling out any blind application I was wondering if we could drive over to Lake City with Finley to determine how he would gravitate to any particular pup. He is our baby that sleeps with us and has garnered an interest in watching tv. Thus, my question related to his interest in pups. I know he is a lover rather than a fighter and sleeps with our cat, but I want to make sure he shows an interest in a little brother or sister pup. Could we bring Finley over this weekend to visit and sniff pups?
Hello!
Not sure if you have talked to Stacy over the phone since sending this comment. But we do not require that you fill out an application for our puppies. I would be cautious to breeders that do because most of the time they are a scam. We also are not in Lake City but in Jacksonville about 15min from the airport.
You can absolutely bring your baby to meet ours and see how he reacts to them. Send Stacy a txt to set up an appointment and she will send you the address
904-838-9628
Omg . U sound like an angel. My 15 year old Maltipoo poo Lucy I had to put down this week and I am heartbroken. She had aggressive cancer. I want to get another little girl that I can love. I would love to hear from you
I am so so sorry to hear of your loss. Here is everyone we have available at the link below and you are more than welcome to text or call me to set up a meet and greet. My number is 904-838-9628

Good Evening- I came across your website and have loved viewing your story as well as your puppies. Do you happen to have a wait list – I have a little Shih-poo (6.5 lbs) and am looking to add another (male) to our home. I am impressed and appreciate that each of your puppy’s story starts with “prayed for”. Thank you for doing what you do.
Thank you for the kind words!
Are you looking for a Shihpoo? if so, we are expecting a litter in June!
Do you have any mini poodles ? Or any golden doodles.
We are expecting a litter of Poodles in 2 weeks!
Hello!
I was unable to tell from your website. Are there currently any mini labradoodle puppies available?
Thank you so much!
Amy
None right now but expecting 1 litter next month and a 2nd litter in June!
Thanks! I spoke to someone this week and placed our deposit. We are all so excited!!
Do you have any female Yorkis available? And if so how much are you asking for?
We are expecting a litter in about 9 weeks and they are $1750 or $2000
Hello. When will you have Mi Ki puppies available?
We are expecting a litter at the end of this month!
Wonderful! Could you email me or should I keep checking the website? How much do they cost?
I can email you when they are born! They are $2000
That would be wonderful. Thank you.
Hi Stacy,
Do you know when you might have another litter of maltipoo pups, and what do you ask for them?
Thanks,
Tonya
We are expecting 4 litters in June but we have many deposits placed so they may all be claimed. I can place you on a waiting list if you’d like!
Thanks Stacy. I would love to go on a wait list. Do I wait to hear from you regarding the deposit?
Hi
I was wondering if you have any upcoming litters of Cavapoo , Maltipoo or Havapoo? If you do, can you tell me the process to get in the waiting list? Thank you in advance for your answer.
Respectfully
Luis Velazquez
Hi Stacy.
I can hardly wait for my pup which should be due next month. My question is, what food do you feed the 8 month old puppies?
hi i saw that you guys are going to have new maltipoos july& August is that true ? and how much ?
Yes! They are $2000 plus FL sales tax. A $200 deposit holds a puppy for you which comes off the total price. So $1940 is due at pickup when they turn 8 weeks old.
