We got our puppy from Michele and couldn’t be happier. She was great to work with, super responsive, and you can tell she really cares about her dogs. Our little dude came home healthy, happy, and so sweet. Highly recommend Michele if you’re looking for a Yorkie!

I cannot say enough about my experience working with Michelle. The care she took to make this an easy process, and her willingness to accommodate my schedule and needs was like nothing I've ever experienced. I was so impressed with her and how much she does to make sure her puppies are loving and healthy. Her passion for what she does is obvious, and I will definitely get another one of her babies in the future. My sincere thanks Michelle for all you did to make this a smooth and easy process and for my sweet boy. He is the sweetest, most loving baby and has made the perfect companion. I couldn't be happier!!!

Hi! Working with Michele of Furry Talz was so easy! She patiently responded to all of my questions, sent me pictures and videos of our little Axle. We couldn’t be happier with her help and our puppy! He is sweet, feisty, and a really smart little fella. He is such a blessing! I can’t recommend Furry Talz and Michele enough!!
