I'm Norrie W., the breeder behind WiseGuys Love Yorkies located in Sacramento County, CA. We are lifelong dog enthusiasts, and we’re excited to share our passion and purpose with others through our breeding program. Our love for our dogs pushed us to begin breeding. We love to see the results of our efforts in the sweet, happy, and healthy puppies that we’re able to share with others.
Q. & A. with Norrie
Why did you start breeding?
Once I had my Ollie, I became fearful that because I loved him so completely, if something ever happened to him I would die. Thinking having another one there to help me through that if something did ever happen, and because Ollie needed someone else to play with besides me constantly, I got my 2nd one. I found that more is better when it comes to love, so I continued to get them. It was on then
What makes your program special?
Since any dog I'll ever own will be my pet above all else, required to live freely in my home, sleep in my bed with me, eat from my fork, and go everywhere I go, I won't have room for more than 5 or 6 of them. So my operation will be the farthest thing from a puppy mill, or even a real business business. Mine is me and my babies (I don't get grandchildren) filling each others hearts with love.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include chocolate and tan, gold, parti, blue and gold, and black and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Sadie, mom
Yorkshire Terrier
About Sadie
Sadie started out deep gold as a pup then went to a beautiful platinum when she gets shaved, then to pale gold with dark back, then looks like a faded traditional at times. She is so mello. Agreeable with everything you ask from her. She doesn't have a particular type of personality, just so sweet and easy. Her tail always wagging, faster than I've ever seen before and she's just happy. She loves to be close to me and asks for attention. So cuddly and warm to sleep with. She's the only one that never does anything bad or wrong. She's such a good mother I'm so thankful for Sadie.
Fanny, mom
Yorkshire Terrier
About Fanny
Four pound Fanny is a definite mommas girl. Very protective of all baby puppies and will fight any dog who makes a puppy cry. She gets nervous when mom isn’t around. She has beautiful smooth hair. She trusts her own ability to hold on to you more than she trusts you to safely hold her up. She loves to travel and sleep under the covers. She loves to play with every other animal she encounters regardless of age, gender or species.
Cricket, mom
Yorkshire Terrier
About Cricket
Cricket is always excited and on the move. She is easy to groom because she will do what she is expected to. Even if she doesn’t like it. She gets along with all other animals, big and small. She is a treasure.
Barkley, dad
Yorkshire Terrier
About Barkley
Barkley was such a solid dark chocolate that I flew to NC to get him, and I live in CA. He grew to have some white on his mustache area and oddly, he got a white patch under his tail, of all places. He is pretty submissive to some other small dogs, but will stand firm against bigger dogs coming around his things and his girlfriend.
Ollie, dad
Yorkshire Terrier
About Ollie
Ollie is a male Yorkshire Terrier. Carefully selected as a great representative of his breed, Norrie decided to make him part of their program. Norrie has passed Good Dog’s screening process, which involved a review of their breeding practices, environment, and the mental and physical health of their dogs.
