Hi, Courtney, and welcome.
I do not know about breeders in the Illinois area, but I hope you find exactly what you are looking for. If you do not have your heart set on a puppy from a breeder, you might check out rescue organizations. When I was looking for a companion for Brody, there were some cutie pies out there. Some were too far away for me, and some were gone before I could get in touch with the rescue, but oh my goodness...the darlingness of those furbabies some people were willing to toss by the wayside!
In any case, please do post pix when you get your new furry best friend and baby child...
