We are a small home based yorkshire terrier breeder located in Middle Tennessee.  We are not a kennel.  We don't believe in keeping our animals caged, however, after we fit as many as we can in our bed (against my own and the expert's advice), we do believe in crating the adults in our house at night for their safety and for the the sake of not cleaning the floor every morning.  I would expect that anyone getting a puppy from us would want the same environment for their own puppy and will so provide for it that way.  We breed for quality and what is best for the breed.  We watch our lines very closely and if we find that there is a quality or trait that is not desirable in our lines, we adjust it to better it.   All our dogs and puppies are raised in our home with lots of love, attention and socializing.  We believe in giving every dog and every puppy personal attention.  Therefore, we only raise them in our home.  They have their own doggie door to go in and out to use the potty and have their own fully enclosed fenced in backyard.  All of our dogs and puppies are seen by a licensed veterinary in Macon County by the name of Dr. Lori Murray, at Macon County Veterinary Hospital.  She does yearly vaccinations of the adult dogs and all puppy vaccinations and checkups on the puppies.  She has been to our home and is very familiar with the environment we raise our dogs in and the healthcare we provide for them.  While we would love for you to believe that all dogs are perfectly groomed each and every time you see them, but they are not. It requires lots and lots of work and effort.  If you come to see our dogs, we will be happy to show you what goes into grooming a yorkshire terrier and show you that we are not perfect and that the dogs do not look like they are going to the show when they are running and playing in the yard.  Do you look your very best when you are doing yard work or hanging out watching tv, or do you always have your hair and make up perfect?
