About Ally
We are not a typical breeder. Our Yorkies are family, and where we go, they go. The first thing to look for in a breeder is quality. Not all breeders are the same and educating yourself on how they run their kennel and how they match their dogs is extremely important. At Kingsford Kennel, quality is key. We breed for show and high-end pet quality terriers. Our Dams and Sires have passed all of the necessary health tests mandated by the American Kennel Club and we have earned the distinction as a breeder of H.E.A.R.T. What this means is our kennel runs on five major principles: Health, Education, Accountability, Responsibility, and Tradition.
