We Breed Quality AKC Registered Yorkshire Terriers 

 

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 experts 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 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, they are not. It requires lots and lots of work and effort.  If you come to see my dogs, I 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 like you are going to the dinner theater when you are working out at the gym or doing yard work?

IT ALL STARTED......WITH AN EGG........

 

This is the story of how it all began...it all began with an egg.  That's how we met anyway.  When Lynn Hall and I became friends, I would have never dreamed I end up getting a dog.  It was only by coincidence we met when I only went to her house to deliver some eggs she had bought when we had country eggs for sale at the time, boy that seems like days of old, but, when I went to her house and saw that she raised "the dogs of my dream," I told her that I just couldn't believe it, it just couldn't be, was it a dream?  Well, of course selling chicken eggs wasn't going to allow me to get a puppy any time soon, but one day later I finally got my very first yorkie from her. Since then, she become my friend and my mentor and helped me in many ways.  When I decided I wanted to become a breeder, she helped me.  I wonder now what life would be like without all the little ragamuffins at my feet, begging for my attention.  Sometimes I have told her just how much trouble I feel she got me into LOL!  Breeding is not an easy thing to do or get into, and you have to have someone you go to when you need them, and she has been that to me.   I can remember when it was all but a dream for me to get my dream dog.  It's not all smoothe sailing, but if it wasn't for Lynn coaching me through some hard moments and being there, I might not have lasted this long.  I appreciate what she did for me helping and pushing me when I couldn't go any further.
