We cherish our puppies from birth up until they leave our arms to snuggle into yours! Each of our dogs has brought so much happiness to us throughout their lives. We want to do our part to produce wonderful, healthy dogs that can bring other people joy as well, and we strive to provide each of our puppies with loving homes where they can live happy lives.

Q. & A. with Patti

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I have always admired the breed. I986 we bought our first one that came from England. We were hooked. They are very intelligent, don't shed and very portable.

  • What makes your program special?

    Since 1986, I have set one of my goals to try to make every litter better than the last. Through constant research and the opportunity to be connected to one of the most admired people on the Yorkshire Terrier Show circuit, Connie Conn, I have been able to consistently stay within AKC breed standards and provide the best beautiful puppies possible.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include blue and gold and black and gold. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
