Meet the breeder

I'm Lori F., the breeder behind Yorkie Haven A Lot To Talk About located in Chesapeake, VA. I am an in-home breeding program committed to responsible breeding with the utmost focus on the health and longevity of our puppies. My dedication is centered on three core principles: exceptional health, balanced temperament, and overall quality.

Q. & A. with Lori

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My passion for breeding began in 2015 after losing our beloved Scooby. After realizing the love, I have for the breed and the joy it was bringing me to join beautiful Yorkies with loving families, I invested in a breeding program to help perfect the breed and bring together healthy puppies with their new owners.

  • What makes your program special?

    I strive to produce healthy, high-quality puppies. To ensure the best possible start, I conduct comprehensive genetic testing on every parent dog before breeding. My goal is to make it affordable for families to welcome one of our loving and beautiful Yorkshire Terriers into their home.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include blue and gold, black and tan, and black and gold. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    I truly enjoyed working with Lori. Her compassion and professionalism shows in the care she gives to all the little angels in her care. She kept me informed throughout the whole process of getting my little angel; from weekly check-ins to home visits. Thank you Lori!!!

    Lori was great throughout the whole process start to finish. She was very responsive to all questions or concerns, with lots of updates. Mr. Rocky is doing fantastic, he is a loving ball of energy! Lori socialized him for us, made it easy from the 1st day. I highly recommend Lori if you are wanting a wonderful little companion puppy! Many thanks to Lori.

    Wonderful Breeder Experience!!! We had such an enjoyable experience working with Lori! From the very beginning, she was extremely communicative, helpful, and made the entire process feel easy and comfortable. One thing we really appreciated was Lori allowing us to visit our puppy before bringing him home. We truly believe these visits make a big difference. He has adjusted so well and is settling into his new home wonderfully! We couldn’t be happier with our experience and would absolutely recommend Lori to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and communicative breeder. We’re so thankful we found her! 🐾❤️

    Lori was great to work with during the whole process between picking the puppy and picking up the puppy. After losing our 6 year old yorkie to sickness, we were heartbroken. Lori was very understanding of our heartbreak and worked with us. She was really great about sending update pictures and Facetiming to answer all the questions we had! I highly recommend Lori to anyone looking for a yorkie!

    She is an absolute God send. Helps with every step of the process, so knowledgeable, and loves all her fur babies as they are family. My family and I are so happy to have found her, and thankful for all she did for us on helping us find our new addition to our family.
