From the minute I heard about Good Dog and had my sweet Sammy in my arms it was an easy journey. I have only had him less than a week. so I have had a lot of questions for Michelle. And she has been there for me helping work thru this crazy time..I love all the information Good Dog provides to help us with all the questions we have..they are definitely there for us. Thank you Good Dog!!

Michelle was so wonderful to work with. She kept me updated and kept in contact to check on Jax after he was settled in. She has her heart in what she does and cares so much that her pups have a good home. She gave us a really nice welcome bag of goodies for Jax which was very much appreciated. I would buy from her again and have referred others to her as well.

Michele was absolutely wonderful to work with. One can tell completely that her puppies are loved and cared for. We got our boy at 10 weeks old. He’s smart and very obviously been loved and acclimated to people. I would recommend Michele as an excellent, knowledgeable and caring breeder

+4It was very important to me that my puppy came from a loving home and I found exactly that with Michelle. Not only did she send photos every week but also video that showed puppy play time. I named my puppy Birdie and Michelle started calling her that. By the time I picked Birdie up, she already knew her name! Birdie was sent home with everything a puppy needs. If you’re looking for a puppy I highly recommend Michelle!

+6We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Michele at Furry Tailz Yorkies. From the very beginning, Michele was incredibly responsive, answering every question we had almost immediately. While we waited for our puppy to be ready to come home, she kept us updated constantly with photos and videos. This made the waiting period so much more exciting and gave us peace of mind seeing our puppy grow. I also want to highlight how smooth the process was on Good Dog. Using the platform for the transaction was easy, straightforward, and most importantly, secure. We felt completely confident and protected from the scams that are so common elsewhere. Michele went above and beyond when it came to logistics. She arranged the delivery of our puppy and worked tirelessly to ensure he arrived in time for my twin daughters’ birthday. It was the perfect surprise! Our puppy arrived happy, healthy, and well-adjusted. He has been a wonderful addition to our family and has the sweetest temperament. If you are looking for a high-quality Yorkie and a breeder who truly cares, we would highly recommend Michele and Furry Tailz Yorkies.
