Michele was amazing to work with throughout the whole process. We fell in love with our pup the minute we saw pictures of her. Michele made the process of getting her home so easy and not stressful in any way! She really cares about her pups in a way that uncommon with most breeders. Our little one is not only adorable but she is full of personality! Her colors are so unique unlike any other yorkie I have seen! I would recommend Michele to anyone looking to add a loving pup to their family.

Michele has been an amazing breeder to work with. She was super informative, responsive, and knowledgeable. Since picking up our puppy, Mabel, Michele and I have stayed in contact and she has been able to help me through questions going forward. I 100% recommend her to anyone interested in Yorkies. They are adorable, spunky, and come from a loving home. Mable came to us knowing her name and full of life. Thanks Michele for everything!

Michele is very responsive whenever I reach out to her, even with questions after I picked Chloe up. She has been such a pleasure to work. She would send weekly pictures and updates. She also sent us home with the cutest little home basket. You can tell she really puts a lot of love, time, and effort into her puppies

+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!
