I'm Kristina D., the breeder behind The Yorkie Armory located in Miami, FL. I am an in-home breeder of AKC Yorkies. My fur babies are loved and our family. I breed them only after testing them. I own both mommy and daddy of every litter. My babies are well socialized and we ensure that their health and well being are their top priority.
Q. & A. with Kristina
Why did you start breeding?
I researched for over three years and made a conscious and prayerful decision with my family. My family was on board and my husband supported this decision fully. I had a very hard time finding well-bred dogs in my area from honest breeders. I wanted to make the difference. I want to place not only beautiful but healthy babies in homes of families that would be able to reach out to me for support.
What makes your program special?
Our fur babies are family through and through. They live in our home and will forever even after they are retired. I am in the process of DNA testing for compatibility to ensure I improve the breed and that the parents are healthy so their babies will be too. I am a firm believer in doing everything honestly and with integrity. I intend on keeping contact with all babies as a support.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include liver, chocolate, tan and white, and parti. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
