Meet the breeder
I'm Minerva Y., the breeder behind Minnie's Yorkshire Terriers of Ohio located in Cardington, OH. We are a very small scale breeder with 1 or 2 litters a year. We breed for temperament, health, size and great looking dogs . Puppies are well socialized and get 2 vet visits before they go to new homes. We do tail docking and dewclaws on all puppies.
Q. & A. with Minerva
Why did you start breeding?
In 2018 after a move from country living to a small house in town I started looking into different dog breeds that will fit my lifestyle. After lots of research I choose the Yorkshire Terrier. I bought two Yorkie girls and my love for the breed grew from there. When I saw the joy these little bundles bring when people pick up their puppy I knew I was in it for the long haul.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include chocolate and tan, parti, and black and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
