Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Barbara Richardson located in Royse City, TX. I breed only Yorkshire Terriers, and I love sharing them with families and individuals alike. All of my puppies are family-raised. I start potty training at 5 weeks. Each puppy is played with and handled from birth until they leave for their forever homes. My puppies are pre-spoiled.

Barbara’s experience

  • About Barbara

    Yorkies are my passion. I started breeding in the '80s and have continued only breeding Yorkies. I work from home, so I am with my dogs almost 24/7. I work hard raising quality pets that should live 12 to 18 years on average. I start potty training at 5 weeks and start handling them from birth. It's an amazing feeling knowing that I made a positive contribution to these dogs and the families who love them!

  • What makes Barbara’s program special

    I spend a lot of time and energy loving each one of my puppies. I am very dedicated to what I do and what I aim to achieve as a breeder. I work with passion, heart, and integrity, and I truly want what's best for the Yorkshire Terrier line. I look forward to connecting with you!
