I'm Shari S., the breeder behind LuvStruck Yorkies located in Eaton Rapids, MI. LuvStruck Yorkies are bred with the whole dog in mind. We are breeding not only for Yorkies that meet the breed standard, but more importantly for temperament and health. Why own a Yorkie that doesn't look like one! Contact us at LuvStruck for your next Yorkie!
Q. & A. with Shari
Why did you start breeding?
I got my first Yorkies over 18 years ago and were LuvStruck. I started going to local dog shows and watching the breed at AKC shows. I reached out to and developed relationships with now lifelong friends that share my love and due diligence for the breed. I started showing Yorkies about 13 years ago and have enjoyed it ever since.
What makes your program special?
At LuvStruck, our goal is to breed Yorkies that are not only beautiful but first and foremost are healthy with great temperaments. Because we realize that most Yorkies are pets, not show dogs. We have researched lines over the years and have imported our dogs from all over the country to include lines from Germany, Belarus, Czech Republic, and most recently Russia. It has served us well.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
