I'm Patricia & Shawn B., the breeder behind Patty’s Paws located in Winston Salem, NC. We are a hard working family and we love our dogs! We love raising our puppies and meeting people from around the United States! We have been breeding our dogs for 3 years but also have previous experience in breeding dogs from about 15 years ago. Trish also has experience as a vet technician and provides ongoing advice to the families who have purchased one of our pups. All of our puppies have first vaccines, vet check, deworming and fecal exam, and are microchipped!
Q. & A. with Patricia & Shawn
Why did you start breeding?
When we began looking for a Morkie, we saw that there are many scams out there looking to hook people into placing a deposit for a puppy that doesn’t exist. It took months of first looking to adopt, not finding a Morkie, and the months of dodging scam attempts before we finally got our first baby, Benji. We named him after our favorite famous dog from the 80s!
After finding Benji, we realized that there must be others out there struggling as we did to find a Morkie, and thus, we began our little business, in hopes of saving people from broken hearts due to scammers in this area!
What makes your program special?
We really, REALLY do our best to make your experience special! We send photos and videos, conduct video calls, encourage home visits, and really are available 24/7 to our buyers!
We also do something special on your take home day to truly make your experience one of a kind, and it’s something no other breeder does a far as we know! It’s a secret! But you won’t be disappointed!
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Here’s a little video update of Rosie’s pups! As we get closer to pick up day, please let me know if you have any questions or concerns!

Litter update on 20 Dec. •
Hey guys! As we get closer to pick up day, several people have asked about which food they need to buy for their babies and so I just wanted to post pictures of the food that they are on. The dry dog food is left out during the day just because they’re so small. I worry about their blood sugar and they need the ability to eat if your blood sugar gets low. The honest kitchen dehydrated food I mix into an oatmeal consistency and they get that twice a day and that is for nutritional value, plus they absolutely love it

Patricia was very easy to talk to and got to know me and what I was looking for in a puppy. I had fallen in love with two of her puppies and she guided me in making my decision by letting me know their personalities. Together we made a perfect match and I couldn’t be happier. Chloe loves to play but will snuggle up right on me.

I had the absolute best experience with Patricia at Patty’s Paws. She was so kind and knowledgable, as well as extremely patient with me. She answered all my questions and continues to do so. Highly recommend them!

Patrica & Shawn were wonderful and we were thrilled to receive a couple of healthy fur babies! Not only that but they came with all the food and goodies to get us started. Certainly an unexpected gift! Thank you for everything!

Patricia and Shawn were amazing to work with. Very responsive and understanding. Gave me a FaceTime showing all the available pups and where they were being raised. Answered all of my questions and helped me through the process of getting Ollie transported home.
Ollie is now one year old and he is the best snuggle bug you could ask for. Curls up with us every night. He’s the perfect fit for our family and I wouldn’t trade him for the world.

Patricia was really great and easy to work with. She communicated with me right away and was quick to answer any questions I had. Because I live in a different state, we set up a call and talked a long time about the puppy and each other so that we got to know one other and become comfortable which was great! I feel like I got to know her and the puppy well before I even met him.

What am amazing experience we had working with Patricia and Shawn! I decided to get a puppy as a Christmas gift for my son, to be delivered by Santa on Christmas morning. Patty was in constant contact, clearly excited about keeping it a secret :) She provided pictures and videos regularly and was extremely accommodating when we picked up the little guy on Christmas Eve. Our puppy is full of energy and as cute as could be! I highly recommend this breeder to anyone looking for an adorable and loved pup. They clearly care about their dogs and treat them as their own. We couldn't be happier with our little Morkie- THANK YOU Patty's Paws!!
