Family Puppies

Family Puppies, a Cocker spaniel and French bulldog breeder in Nappanee, IN, is located in Elkhart County and the Michiana region near South Bend. Owner Dave Chupp has more than a decade of experience with toy and small companion dogs, participates in national registry programs and follows recommended health screenings for hips, patellas and heart function. Puppies are raised indoors with daily social interaction, exposure to household sounds and supervised playtime with children.

The facility includes a dedicated nursery space with raised whelping areas and nonporous flooring for easy cleaning. All puppies begin basic obedience routines and gradually join family outings to help them adapt to new environments. Recent puppy buyers appreciate the gentle temperaments and adaptability of these breeds in urban and rural settings alike. Each puppy goes home with a folder of breed-specific care notes and ongoing support for feeding and grooming schedules.
