Meet the breeder
I'm Melissa T., the breeder behind Copper Ridge Yorkies located in Marmaduke, AR. I have always loved the Yorkshire Terrier breed and feel honored to be able to contribute to bettering the breed. I do not breed ordinary Yorkies, I have hand picked only exceptional quality and top genetics for our program.
Q. & A. with Melissa
Why did you start breeding?
Many years ago I fell in love with a friend of mines yorkie after babysitting her. I soon purchased my first yorkie, then soon another! During this time I realized there was ALOT of poor quality Yorkies being bred and sold, So I decided I was gonna help this beautiful breed by pursuing only the best quality and help replenish the yorkie population with what I know the yorkie breed should be!What makes your program special?
I take GREAT pride in dogs, all my breeding dams and sires are genetically health tested, level tempered, intelligent, and visually pleasing with quality confirmation.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
