I'm Miranda M., the breeder behind Southern Charm Precious Paws located in Dalton, GA.

My goal is to match every puppy with a loving, lifelong home and to provide ongoing support to families after they bring their new companion home.

Q. & A. with Miranda

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I didn’t start out planning to be a breeder — it began with my love for Yorkies for the breed and a desire to preserve its best qualities. After years of owning, training, and learning about the breed, I became passionate about responsible breeding, health testing, and producing well-rounded dogs with excellent temperaments. I want to be a part of contributing positively to the future of Yorkies.

“🐾 Our Puppy Matching Process – Southern Charm Precious Paws At Southern Charm Precious Paws, we use a thoughtful matching process through Good Dog to make sure every puppy is placed in the best possible home. We believe matching the right puppy with the right family is just as important as health testing and responsible breeding. When you apply through GoodDog, we review each application carefully. We look at your experience with dogs, household environment, work schedule, other pets, and what you are looking for in a puppy. This helps us understand which puppy will fit your lifestyle best. Once puppies are old enough to evaluate temperament, structure, and size charting, we begin matching in the order deposits are received, while also considering the best fit for each puppy. For toy breeds like Yorkies, personality, energy level, and expected adult size all play an important role in placement. We do not allow visitors in our home for biosecurity reasons, but we provide frequent photos, videos, updates, and video calls so families can watch their puppy grow and feel confident in the process.

    We had recently lost our Yorkie and when the feeling of missing her just wouldn’t go away, we started the process of looking for our next little love. We happened upon Maddie’s photo and read about ‘Southern Charm Precious Paws’ on their website. We loved their transparency, their dedication, and their commitment to breeding their pups with the highest ethical standards and a whole lot of love. Choosing a breeder can be a daunting experience but in dealing with Miranda, we felt entirely confident throughout the entire process, and to say that she goes above and beyond is an understatement. Because of her tireless efforts, the transition into our home with other dogs was actually easy; Maddie wasn’t timid, nor skittish, and our other dogs adapted to having a new baby sister without any repercussions. We were absolutely amazed. We absolutely would recommend Miranda without any hesitancy or reservation. Maddie was the perfect fit for us, and our home! Thanks Miranda!!

    Miranda was awesome! She worked with me until she had a beautiful traditional girl available. I can’t say enough how great this experience was. Our baby has a sweet personality and is also feisty at the same time. She was very responsive and communicated frequently. I will absolutely come to her again for our next baby!!

    Miranda is absolutely amazing. She delivered the sweetest puppy to us today. She cares deeply for her dogs and I wouldn’t hesitate to buy another puppy from her. She updated me every day. She worked with him and got him puppy pad, trained, along with being somewhat ready to sleep on his own. This was an outstanding experience. We love being a part of the Southern charm, precious paws, family.

    Miranda was great to work with. She is very knowledgeable about the bread. The puppy is great. The puppy adjusted very easily and so far very socialable. We got him in TN and did great in the car to NJ. Miranda drop 3 hours to meet us to accommodate our vacation spot. I would recommend her to anyone that's looking for a loving dog that is taken care of very well.

    Miranda was fantastic throughout the whole process from choosing a puppy to pickup. I got frequent updates about my baby and her growth and development, and lots of pictures along the way! She continues to be a great resource for experienced guidance after pickup. My vet says that my puppy is perfectly formed and in excellent health. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and completely recommend Miranda and Southern Charm Precious Paws for your new baby!
