Meet the breeder
I'm Regina C., the breeder behind Gemstone Kennel located in Grafton, WV. My program is built with love, care, and intention from the ground up. My dogs are excellent in the ring AND at home as beloved companions! I don't breed often, but when I do I take great care planning each litter to ensure I am producing puppies that are excellent representations of the breed. The quality of my puppies reflects the conscious decisions I make throughout every part of the breeding process!
Q. & A. with Regina
Why did you start breeding?
Purposeful and ethical breeding is so important for the healthy preservation of the Whippet. I started breeding to not only preserve my own phenomenal bloodlines, but to improve this breed with each litter and do my part to ensure the well-being of these dogs for generations more to come. It has been such a fulfilling journey!What makes your program special?
My dogs are an integral part of my family and daily life. This creates the ideal environment for puppies. From birth, they grow in a secure, loving environment where they know that they matter to their family -- that they have a purpose. My breeding program stands out because of the personal attention I give to every detail of the journey!What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our Whippet puppies include blue brindle and fawn brindle. Yorkshire Terrier puppies are black and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

+4Adopting Calvin from Gemstones Tiny Gems Filled the Void Left by Rocky. Losing my beloved Yorkie, Rocky, after many wonderful years left an emptiness, I couldn't shake. His feisty barks and lap-snuggling ways were irreplaceable, and for weeks, I wandered online, half-heartedly browsing for a spark of joy. Then Calvin kept popping up—those soulful eyes and playful antics in the photos calling to me like a lifeline. That's when I connected with Gemstones Tiny Gems, and it felt like fate aligning. From our first chat, their passion for ethical breeding shone through: detailed info on genetics, health testing, socialization routines, and a caring home environment where pups like Calvin thrived with toys, human interaction, and top-notch vet care. No upsell, just honest guidance—they even advised on Yorkie-specific needs, like dental health to prevent issues Rocky had faced. The process was a gentle one: a straightforward contract with lifetime support, and Calvin arriving crate-trained, microchipped, and vetted to perfection. Handover day? Pure magic. He settled in like he'd always been here, chasing shadows and curling up in Rocky's favorite spot—but with his own goofy charm. A couple of weeks in, Calvin's already mending my heart: endless zoomies, sassy head tilts, and a love that's all his own. He keeps us on our toes and has us laughing nonstop with his pint-sized antics. Gemstones Tiny Gems didn't just sell a puppy; they handed me hope. If you're grieving a fur loss or dreaming of a Yorkie sidekick, this is your sign—reach out. Grateful beyond words.
