SUTTON WINS AT THE FINGER LAKES SHOW

I just got word that "Sutton", Eng's West Kent Weekend Warrior just won a 4 point major at the Elmira Kennel Club show in Romulus New York under Judge Dr. John V. Iola. MJ Held is his handler. He now has 12 pts towards his 15 that is needed to be recognized by AKC for his Championship. With both majors won now........he only needs the 3 singles to finish. WOW!!! Thank you MJ for doing him proud and working so hard. YOU are the best!
This is the most exciting news and we are so proud of him. Sutton is our new boy that came from Anna Engstrom in Grand Rapids Michigan. Anna has been breeding and showing dogs for more than 40 years.

DELIA TO THE RESCUE!!


These little orphan girls are 4 days old. Their mommy died after delivering them. Their owner heard about us and brought them over to TMY. Delia is allowing them to nurse but is not quite ready to accept them as her own. Without her help they probably would not have survived. The little one only weighs 2 7/8 oz, her sister, 3 5/8, both down from their birth wts. We will do our best to help these little ones make it and to give their owner a night of rest!! Say a prayer for them .............Holly

ROCKY

Abbie has given us 5 pups every litter so far and always gives us one puppy that is much larger than all the others. This litter it was Rocky. Rocky was the "class clown", always happy and just loving to get into mischef. These pics are of him the last day he was here at TMY. He is such a cutie!

SUTTON TAKES BREED IN SHOW IN MICHIGAN

As some of you know, two weeks ago I drove to Buffalo New York and placed Sutton with a professional handler. MJ will be trying to finish Sutton to obtain his championship. Although the final outcome will not be know until mid October, Sutton was shown today at the Pontiac Dog show in Michigan and took Breed in the Yorkshire Terrier class. He wins one AKC point for todays show. Sutton now has 4 singles, half of what he needs for singles .
To become an AKC champion, a dog must have 8 singles and 2 major wins. Majors are when a dog competes against at least 7 others of the same sex or when they take a "cross over" and is awarded Breed when there were at least 7 yorkies of the opposite sex.
I miss him so much but I promised to try to finish him and I am keeping my word. MJ says he is doing great, eating like a little pig and she says he showed well today. Huggs and kisses bugga!! I am proud of you. Momma Holly

BOT FLY ATTACKS YORKIE

Do you remember Secret? She was a little girl that TMY purchased to potentially show and breed, but she stayed very small so we sold her to a loving woman nearby. I happened to be up to the vets and her mom called while I was there. Secret was very sick and needed to be seen. She had gone in for tests just a couple of days prior and she was showing high liver values and vomiting. She also had some places on her skin that looked like eczema..........After liver shunt was ruled out, she was put on antibiotics and sent home.
A couple of days later while a relative was visiting at their home, they noticed some areas on her sides that looked like very dry skin but now they seems to be swelling, and the wierd thing was......they thought they saw something moving under the skin.................
Upon exam she was found to have Bot fly larvae living under her skin in several places!!!!! The larvae type worms were under her skin moving around!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She had them surgically removed and was sent home with the antibiotic. Doc said he has seen bot larvae in large animals and occasionally in an outside dog....................in fact I personally can remember worming the horses for bots..........but he said he has never seen this in a house dog.
We think we have seen it all...........but beware of the bot fly..........it can attack your yorkie. Holly

GIARDIA

I recently have talked to a few folks that found out that their dogs have giardia. Giardia causes stomach upset and severe diarrhea. In small dogs and pups it can be devasting. A regular fecal examined by your vet will not show giardia. You have to request a special test to be done specifically for giardia.
New England has experienced a huge amount of rain this summer and giardia is on the rise. Giardia is usually carried by wild animals such as coons, skunks and beaver. They eliminate in the water or standing water. If your dog drinks from a streams or pond infected they can get it. It also can be transmitted by your pup walking thru standing water that is infected and later they lap and clean their feet and they get it. People can get giardia as well so use extremely good hygiene when handling and cleaning.
Treatment is usually metronidazole (flagyl) 3-5 days of treatment and then they should be retested. Holly

THANK YOU

We at TMY wish to thank all of you for your wonderful emails, thoughts, condolences and cards regarding the loss of our little Taryn. It has helped us get through this very difficult time and we so very much appreciate it. She is in my thoughts every day and will be forever. Holly

WHAT SETS US APART???????

I have been getting allot of emails regarding our puppies and thought that I would post again some things that sets us apart from others. First and foremost:
TMY breeds for quality, temperment and excellent health. We think our puppies are beautiful and we are always striving to make improvements.
We are a show home promoting our lines and our dogs. We breed within the standard and never do we say we have "teacups" since there is no such thing!
Our pups live in our home and are hand raised. They are not kennel dogs nor do they stay in an outside building.
We don't sell to brokers or pet stores and our new moms and dads have to be approved by us. We want our puppies to be spoiled and have the very BEST homes.
You become our family and we stay in touch, wanting updates, pictures and communication.
Our puppies are vet checked and get a health certificate as well as they receive thier shots from our vet. I do not do my own........even though I am a registered nurse and could do it easily, I feel it is more important that our vet see them and that they are cared for properly.
We are here for you 24/7 to answer questions and to help with training tips.
If you want, I will help you groom, do nails or teach you so that you can do your own instead of having the expense of a groomer.
We will puppysit your puppy when you go on vacation that way you never have to kennel your dog at a strange facility.
We sponsor annually a Yorkie Family Reunion. Our 2008 reunion was attended by more than 40 people and 20 some-odd puppies. We have such a great time and it gives me the chance to see all my little babies and to enjoy seeing you again!!! All the puppies get a gift and we have some of the best food and fun ever.
We stand behind our contract and should you not be able to keep your yorkie, the dog must come back to us. We NEVER want one of our babies to end up in a shelter, a rescue or in the hands of someone who will not care for them properly. We dont care what the age of the dog is.......this is a must!!!
I will never think you are being a pest and I enjoy being able to help you. When you come to visit, you will meet all of our dogs......not just the puppy that we have in mind for you.
We LOVE our dogs and what we do. Call, write or inquire anytime and I will get back to you as soon as I can.
Pricing: Yes, we might be a little more than some, but we are allot less than others and we offer you a lifelong commitment. General pricing is $1500 on boys and $1600 on girls with usually a $100 rebate at the time of spay/neuter. Our tiny pups and picks of the litter-show quality are generally price a bit higher $1700-and up. Sometimes we do have a little larger pup that is priced accordingly around $1200 or less.
I hope this information is helpful. Feel free to check out other breeders in the area and then come and see us. We will never disappoint you. Holly
