    Michelle is an amazing and wonderful person. I inquired about her puppies while we were on vacation. We picked Cora, whose name is now Masie, and answers to it already. Her response time was quick. We set up at date and time when we would be passing through Jacksonville and she went above and beyond to meet with us on our time schedule. She was very knowledgeable and loves her babies. We received an amazing welcoming gift basket with everything to start out with a new puppy. We didn’t need to get anything for our 17 hour trip. Masie went right to the washable pee pee pad, when we stopped. She is potty trained, which is an awesome treat with a new puppy, home one day and hasn’t missed, sleeps through the night and a happy go lucky puppy.

    Michelle was absolutely wonderful! I adopted Aedan formerly Aidan in June. He is the best puppy I have ever had. He is 6mos old going to be 7mos old next month. Totally house trained and so loving. I could not have asked for a better puppy than him. I just love him so much. I met Michelle half way from Jacksonville and picked up my precious baby. He was an absolutely angel on the long ride home. He has quickly adapted to a life of 6 brothers and 4 sisters (dogs). They all just adore him. I was amazed at how fast he made our home his. He is my constant companion and follows me everywhere I go. He was in the big bed on day 2 after he learned how to use the ramp. I could not ask for a better experience or puppy. Highly recommend Ember Valley Yorkies. Plus he came with a bunch of goodies and toys!

    When we inquired into these Yorkies, Michelle was very knowledgeable with this breed of puppies. I had a silky terrier and then found Michelle’s puppy on Good Dog and she had a female which my wife wanted. We named her Bella for her southern charm. Michelle even met us half way which was very nice because she lives in Jacksonville Fl. and we are in Rincon Ga. 2 hours away. Michelle brought plenty of supplies for Bella which was very nice. She also brought her pedigree. My wife and I are very satisfied with our puppy. Bella spends a lot of time laying with my wife in the bed and Bella loves belly rubs. Bella is very loved.
