I'm so sorry to hear you lost your little baby. I know how hard it is. I'm in NJ but don't really know any breeders. But I'll be interested to see what answers you get. The closest ones I've seen recommended seem to be in New England...Clover Hill is a name I've seen a lot.
Here's a link I found that lists a number of Breeders in NJ.

You'll probably have to copy and paste, lol. I'm woeful at posting links.
