Walnut Valley Puppies is a multi generation family venture. My father, David, grew up on a farm surrounded by lots of animals where dogs were an integral part of life. He brought his experience into my life and at a young age I was involved in raising puppies!
Time passed and in 2009, I married my beautiful sweetheart. After we were married a few years, I started raising puppies again. Several years later dad and I decided to merge our paths in puppy life and support each other in the venture. We never regretted it and have been so blessed to work together as a family. As my children are growing up, they are integrating into the process and thus the three generation puppy life keeps getting better!
We are passionate about happy, healthy puppies, and equally passionate about our customers that join the Walnut Valley Puppies family. Customer service and satisfaction is extremely important to us and we strive to exceed expectations in caring for our customers and their puppies.
Thank you for taking the time to drop in and see our line of adult dogs, past and current puppies, and the rest of us here at Walnut Valley Puppies. We feel privileged to have the opportunity of serving our family of puppy owners, and look forward to having you join in!

Hey, I’m Javin — co-owner of Walnut Valley Puppies. Much of my time is spent in the office, connecting with our customers and handling the many moving parts of what we call "puppy world." One of the most rewarding parts of this work is hearing back from our many customers and seeing the pictures and joys that our puppies are bringing to so many homes. I love working with my boys in Walnut Valley and watching them learn and grow alongside the puppies.
Outside of Walnut Valley, I love spending time with my family and other people. I’m passionate about the Kingdom of God and deeply believe in the power of Jesus’ life and love to transform hearts.
Thanks for stopping by — Looking forward to connecting with you!
Hi, I’m David — co-owner of Walnut Valley Puppies. I grew up on a farm, so animals and dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Around here, I primarily focus on the on-site side of things: Taking care of our parent dogs, whelping the little ones, and tending to the many details that keep our puppy world thriving.
Outside of Walnut Valley, I serve as a pastor and leader of a small local congregation, a calling that brings me both purpose and joy. I especially enjoy spending time with my grandchildren. Whether we’re out hunting or simply sharing an evening together as a family are moments I treasure a lot.
Hey, I’m Ruby Miller. Here at Walnut Valley Puppies, you’ll find me behind the desk, taking care of all the logistics, paperwork, etc, or on the road, delivering a puppy to the next happy family! That’s the best, getting to place the puppy in excited arms, and watching them fall in love with each other!
My job at Walnut Valley can hardly be called a job, as it’s far too much fun! Growing up, I always dreamed of having a job where I travel, and if not that, then office work. Here at Walnut Valley I get to do both, and feel beyond privileged to be a part of the Walnut Valley family!
Outside of Walnut Valley, I enjoy playing volleyball, softball, spending time with family and friends, or traveling whenever I get an opportunity!
Japheth, Josiah, and Jaden are a big part of life here at Walnut Valley Puppies. They spend lots of hours with both our adult dogs and our puppies—making sure each puppy is well socialized, loved, and comfortable around people from an early age. (This starts with ENS at several days old.) Whether it’s snuggling with a sleepy pup or playing in the yard, the boys bring energy, care, and joy to the puppies’ lives.
In addition to helping with socialization, they also pitch in to keep things clean and safe—a job they take seriously because they know how important it is for the puppies’ health and happiness.
Outside of their work with the dogs, the boys love almost anything outdoors. Hunting, fishing, and swimming are a few of their favorite things—and whenever they get the chance, they love doing it all with Dad by their side. (Dad has a boy inside him yet too! )
We’re proud of the role these 3 play in raising well-adjusted, happy puppies—and we’re thankful for the heart they put into everything they do.
At Walnut Valley Puppies, dogs are our life—and we take the responsibility of breeding healthy puppies seriously as a Certified Breeder in the state of Illinois.
