I'm Darci H., the breeder behind Southern Yorkie Pies located in Midland, TX. All of our puppies are bred, raised, and loved indoors to produce happy, healthy pets for those seeking the best family companion! We’re a small-scale program with a big love of this breed! Our dogs are our passion, and we enjoy spreading the love of our incredible dogs with other individuals and families by responsibly breeding.
Q. & A. with Darci
Why did you start breeding?
I grew up as a child with my mother breeding and showing Chinese shar pei. I was surrounded by many amazing breeders and dogs growing up and I just fell in love with the whole process. After I had my own children and got my dream Yorkie I decided to start raising them myself !
What makes your program special?
We are a home based program. All of our dogs are our pets first. They live in the house with us. None of our dogs are crated for longer then their bed time and we absolutely do not have a kennel set up with a million dogs that do not get the love and dedication they deserve. I am a stay at home mom therefor I am able to be hands on all the time with them. They grow up being loved and spoiled before they go to their new homes .
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Shorkie puppies include red, black and white, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

We couldn’t be happier with our pup and the experience we had with Darci! She’s caring and a responsible breeder. Our pup is healthy, well socialized and just a bundle of joy. He has no fear and gets along well with our labrador. Clearly was raised with much love and attention. I highly recommend Darci to anyone looking for their next furry family member!:)

I began looking for a companion puppy after the loss of our 18 year old son. My anxiety was out of control and I couldn’t even go to the grocery store without crying! I was looking for a small puppy to help me when my husband was at work and couldn’t accompany me. And I found Darci! Darci was AMAZING! She kept me updated on “Lilly’s” progress and sent me pictures of her. And helped me get ready for my new baby to arrive! I would definitely recommend Darci to anyone looking for a new family member!

Working with Darci, via Good Dog, was a good experience. She was prompt to respond, and was very knowledgeable about Yorkies.
We adore our tiny little boy! We had to put a tiny bell on his collar, so we wouldn’t step on him. He plays well with our mini-Aussie, as well as with our grandchildren. He does think he’s a Rottweiler at times! I would certainly refer others to Darci.

When I first found Darci’s site I fell in love with the litter of Shorkies. I knew I couldn’t live without one. Darci was very kind and always gave me updates on the sweet boy I picked. I even got to pick him up early and he has been such a sweet addition to my family. His name is Diesel!!!

Darci was absolutely amazing to work with! She made the whole process clear, simple, and stress-free, and even set up FaceTime calls so we could meet our puppy before bringing him home! That extra care gave us so much peace of mind and showed how much she truly cares about her puppies and their families. Since day one of him being home, he is healthy, happy, and full of spunk—the best comfort companion and the greatest blessing to our family. We couldn’t recommend Darci more!
