"She's doing great! We've taken her to the Vet for her puppy physical, and everything checked out perfectly. The Vet commented about what a good breeder we must have found, and we agreed. Paris is eating well.... We're crate training her - which is going great.

She's very close to being completely house trained. We only had one accident in the past 5 days. Paris is intelligent and playful, and adapted to her new surroundings almost immediately. We're very, very happy with her. Thanks for providing us with such a healthy, happy pet."

"Today was Sofie's first day at obedience class, although it was really just for the owners. She had a really big time.  Sofie's personality showed up today, and we were really proud of her. Our homework for this week was to teach Sofie her name and get her to come to us.  As you are probably aware, she is way ahead of that game.  She is consistently using her liter box, sits and stays upon command, and is getting pretty good at letting us "pick her up”.

A Month later. . . Sofie has learned to sit, stay, down, come, "let me pick you up", and "no" very well - really without much help from the class.  She is also using her liter box at least 95% or more of the time.  We are very happy with her progress.  Our vet really likes Sofie.  He was impressed when Sofie obeyed all of my commands in front of him - twice in a row. 

Anyway, things are going great.  We were previously impressed with your obvious talent to breed good puppies, and each day that goes by just proves that you are the "BEST".  We consider her completely potty trained to the litter box, and she has full access to the house including upstairs."

Paty from Ohio

"Lindsy is still perfection and getting even better each day. She loves to go
on walks with me and can do a brisk two mile now without having to be
carried! She is such a happy, healthy and cute little thing - she's
contagious! I'm trying to talk my husband into another should you happen to
"clone" her mother again!

I'll keep in touch and PROMISE to overload you with pictures as soon as I
can!" 

Jenni from AZ


"This dog thinks that she is people, and she is spoiled rotten. Don't let that sweet innocent look fool you. She misses nothing and gets constant attention. Last time I had her to the vet she weighed just under 5 pounds, but I am sure she is a bit heavier now. If a bag rattles she is there, if I cook she is there, and if you are out of her sight for a bit she will sniff you to make sure you haven't eaten anything on the sly. She has discovered that there is more to life than dog food, and so a tiny treat of cheese is just the greatest thing since doggie treats. In fact we don't have to say "sit" to her anymore, she will automatically sit and as soon as she gobbles it down she is back on all fours. So much for the "stay" command where you open your hand and kinda put it towards her face, ha, ha, she jumps at your hand like "oh boy here is another game"........she has a blue rubber ball that is about the size of a tennis ball and she will butt it with her nose and if you bump it back to her she will play a sort of a tennis match with you, this goes on while I am trying to cook and it is a wonder I don't kill myself when we go through this on a daily basis. If that ball goes anywhere where she can't get it then she will bark till we jump up and retrive it for her (who is the boss here anyways?) We had to put a yard stick across the area where you go towards the step down landing to keep that ball in the kitchen and prevent it from going down the stairs since if you turn left you can go down the basement or go straight out the door into the garage. She will not go over that yardstick, it is so funny. She will not go down stairs either, nor will she go up them, but she will jump on and off of the couch. The kitchen floor is that laminated hardwood flooring and the landing is too, so she does have a hard time with traction, lol. She has discovered the winter birds, we have a small red bud tree out back where there is a set of steps going out into the back yard to Roger's woodshop. We hang those seed bells there to watch the pretty birds and since the doors are the French kind, and long, she can see out there just fine. She even watches TV, and if that isn't funny, her favorite channel is the Animal Planet. She is completely trained to go on the puppy pads and has been for a long time. She has her toys all over the house and it looks like a toddler lives here. Everyone loves her, and she is Roger's best buddy when it comes a belly rub......When he is lying on the couch being a couch potato, I tell him he is Spud and she is Tater Tot...........everything we do to her is a 2-man job, and that even includes the bow in the hair. Trimming her nails is something that only the groomer can do since Trixie seems to have us fooled into thinking she can't be still for a second. When I brush her she has to chew on one brush while I use a second brush on her coat. We have never regretted making her a member of our family, it was well worth the trip to Indiana. She is a cutie pie.

"The pup, Marley, is doing great and has adapted well to farm life. She is very smart, which is a good thing. She is strong and very vibrant for a puffball that thinks she's a giant. Thanks again for a sweet pup."

Marge from AL


 

Erica, Happy New Year! I hope you had a wonderful holiday.  Roxy was spayed on November 28th and it went well.  Everyone is always telling me how well bred and beautiful she is. We are so happy to have her as part of our family. My boyfriend and I just got engaged the week before Christmas and are in the process of buying a townhouse. We just can't wait to buy another dog from you and watch our family grow :) (As soon as we are settled in of course.)  Thank you so much for all of the help and support you have given us over the past months. Roxy has made our lives so wonderful and has filled a place in my heart I thought could never be replaced. Thank you for everything.

A later note: Sorry these took so long to get to you.  I have been trying to get a perfect picture of Roxy to send to you.  Robbie and I have come to the conclusion that she just isn't photogenic!  I know that probably sounds crazy but she is soooo much cuter in person.  I feel like the camera just doesn't capture how beautiful she is. Every time I look at her, I just can't believe how pretty she is.  Every one who who sees her just has to squeeze her and give her a kiss! I wish I had a better picture to send you but at least these will give you an idea of how she looks now.  She is 5 1/2 pounds and her coat is still soft, shiny, and thick. Thanks again for such a perfect dog.  She is such a special part of our lives and we could never live without her. We are getting married in July and are hoping to use some of our wedding money to buy Roxy a brother or sister.  We'll keep you posted on that! Have a Merry Christmas!!!
Love,
Rena, Robbie, and Roxy

These photo are of the same puppy, the first photo is at around 6 weeks of age, the second is when he is 10 weeks old.


 

"Here are some pictures of our little angel. Kali loves all of them (the 4 other dogs).  She runs the house. Out of all the animals it's our big tomcat that she adores. When she sees him she goes nuts. We are stunned that Sam allows her to kiss on him the way she does, as he hates all dogs. She has been a gift from God. She has brought laughter into this house that's been missing since our son went to Iraq. He has gotten pictures of her and can't wait to see her.  Thank you so much for allowing us the joy of this little girl. She is very loved and happy. She's a great dog with lots of personality. We love her to pieces! I would recommend you to anyone looking for a Yorkie. Take care and I will keep in Touch. "

Hi Erica,  I just wanted to drop you a line about Verde, who's now named Sammy.  He is doing great. 
The Vet assistant said that he was the best looking Yorkie she has seen in the 7 years she's worked there.  Of course we think he's beautiful as well.  He is a happy, healthy, sturdy, loving, wonderful little dog and we couldn't be happier.  My neighbors babysat him for a day and thought he was just a great dog.  They thought little dogs were hyper.  Sammy isn't hyper at all, he's just so much fun.   And they are "big dog" people!!!   When I take him with to Petsmart, people always come up to me and want to pet him, and say how cute he is etc.  And not just kids the adults too.  Potty training is going great,  he's only had 1 accident in the past 2 weeks., and that was our fault, not his!  Thanks for breeding such a great puppy.

"Hi Erica, Bailey's doing really well. Everyone that spends time around him says, "he's the cutest puppy I've ever seen." We're really happy with him, he's just so happy and playful.  We're going to start doing obedience classes in a couple of weeks, and he's doing really well with his housetraining and other little training things. 

Anyway, he's doing great and we love him a lot. He gets quite a bit of attention since we don't have any kids or anything. Here's a picture, and I'll send a couple more soon. Thanks again for everything!

"We really love Zoe and she is our little princess. She and our other dog are best buddies and play. She is getting silver in her hair now and is going to be beautiful. Potty training is going well. She is a great pup and overall we think she is the tops...........Thanks again."

Terri from Illinois


 

"Just wanted to send you a follow up thank you for our dog- who in November will be a year old! I have been so  lazy in bringing you pictures of him- I will have to work on that. He has a great personality, and is super spoiled!  He goes EVERYWHERE we do and everyone is amazed at how well behaved he is."

Lauren from California


Hi, Erica!  Max went on his first motor home trip with us last week.  He loved the beach!  He was digging so deep that his butt was sticking straight up.  He is a very lovable little guy.  He is growing so fast and learning so much.  He is pretty much potty trained on the puppy pads.   I taught him to sit, lay, dance, stay, fetch, and give.  I am now working on "give me five" and heel.  As you can tell, he is very, very smart, and can also be a little naughty when he wants his way.  He is on the B.A.R.F. diet and loves the food, especially raw beef bones, which he hides in the yard and house.  We have certainly already fallen in love with him in just one month and couldn't imagine life without him.  We are sure our Yorkie, Buddy that passed away on June 1st sent Max to us to bring joy in our lives again.  Erica, thanks for breeding such wonderful puppies!

"It has been almost seven months since we adopted Rusty.  I promised I would drop you a note and send some photos of our number 1 Yorkie!  We have fallen in love with him.  He is the best little guy.  He gets tons of love and we have taught him to lie down, roll over and sit.  My daughter Abigail is the chief care taker.  She just loves Rusty!  We have found a wonderful groomer and vet.  

We just want you to know that we will never get any other breed.  Yorkshire Terriers are the best.  Crate training went well.  He's out all day but we prefer to crate him at night.  He usually begins the night in my five year old, Samuel's bed. 

Thanks you so much for the addition you've given to our family.  You need not worry about him being loved!  He's thriving well."

Hello Erica. Hope all is going well with you and your family. It has been awhile since I have emailed you and just wanted to check out your web site and see the puppies. I sent this picture of Trixie awhile back and it is probably the one I love the best although I have more that are just as precious. She is doing well and has been in good health. I do not think we have loved any pet as much as we love her. She is pampered daily. She is very smart and playful.

In May I fractured my foot and was off of work for 8 weeks and she and I spent pretty much all of that time together. She is like a shadow, and no matter where we go in this house, she is right there too. I have not had to take her to the vet in quite some time since she is current with all of her shots and checkups, but I would say she weighs around 5 pounds now. She has lost baby teeth and she eats well.

I mentioned how smart she is, well if you get out her collar and leash she knows we are going outside and she will sit at the French window in the kitchen and bark at us if we leave her in the house. Trixie will jump up and down from the couch and the chairs in the living room, but will not go down the steps from the decks to the yard. I do not know why she is fearful of them, but I told Roger he might have to build her a little ramp. Needless to say, she still goes potty on her puppy pads, and that is fine with me. I will not chance some big bird getting my dog. We also have coyotes in this county and that would be another reason for being cautious.

There is not a day goes by that she does not do something to make us laugh. She can shred a paper towel or napkin faster than anything, and what a mess, lol. A few weeks I went out to the mailbox and got side tracked doing something in the garage, I came in the house and she was just sitting in the kitchen like she had been waiting for me. When I went to go into the hallway, oh my, you should have seen what she had done, and evidently she had had quite a ball, literally...she had gotten a ball of baby yarn out of a bag I had sitting on the floor and that yarn was strung everywhere from one end of the hall into the living room and back to the bedroom. I said to her, "Oh Trixie what have you done to Mommy's ball of yarn?" She just sat there all innocent and all. I never realized there was so much yarn in a ball, lol. It is still a mess, in a bag and it will take hours to untangle. It was my fault, I should have confined her to the kitchen when I went out. When Roger came home from work he picked her up and said, "Oh my little girl would never do something like that." We both got a good laugh out of that little episode. I wish I would have taken a picture of that.

I could go on for hours about her, we love her so much. Next month she will be one year old. I do not regret our purchase from you. When I took her to the groomers, she had 5 yorkies to work on today, and I have to say that our little girl was the prettiest one of the bunch. Roxie told me that her daughter came down to her shop and sat and held my dog and told her mom she wanted to keep her. There has not been one person to come here who hasn't commented on what a sweetie pie she is. I guess I will continue to admire your other puppies as time goes by. Take care, and God bless you and your family,   Susanne :)


Hi Erica...I just wanted to say thanks for the puppy pen idea.  It is working well.  We still have a few accidents now and then, but that's to be expected, and he did actually go to the door once tonight...YAY!!  We are definitely making progress.  He is getting along well with everyone, and his personality is coming out even more.  He's so playful, and has a few toys that he can't go without, but he will sit in my lap forever, too.  His shyness is definitely gone.  We really enjoy watching him run around the house.  Everyone at work LOVES him.  He is getting spoiled.  We're still thinking on his name...we would like to see his personality for a while before we decide, but it's not easy :)  We are just so happy with him! He's had his 3rd distemper/parvo vaccine, and will be getting rabies soon, then it's off to puppy classes! I'm sure he'll have a blast. He listens very well, and comes running as soon as he hears his name.  He's great for his baths, and he'll lay on his back in my lap and let me trim his nails. Thanks again for our little man.  He's definitely been lots of  fun!!  Thanks again.

p.s. I sent a picture of him and our cat Shelby at the water dish together.
