Welcome to Our Family  

 We are located in the beautiful hills of Holmes County. Raising puppies has always been so much fun, seeing the puppies grow and develop their own unique personalities. They bring so much joy to our family. We mostly raise Lhasa-Poos. We fell in love with this specific breed due to having a family pet and we wanted to bring that joy we experienced to other homes as well.  

 The Lhasa Apsos were introduced to the United States in 1933 by C. Suydam  Cutting, who received them as gifts from the thirteenth Dalai Lama.  A dog of  moderation, they are slow to mature. Lhasa Apsos do not reach their prime until the 3rd or 4th year. They age gracefully. Keeping a youthful attitude and appearance well into their teens. They are not a breed given to being yappy or nervous. The Lhasa Apso is extremely intelligent, often exhibiting a regal  attittude, which can quickly be dispelled by a clownish sense of humor and a joy for life. An independent nature ensures that the Lhasa seldom needs to be entertained, to the contrary, they usually provide the entertainment. The Lhasa resists harsh or strict discipline, responding best to training with reward based  reinforcement.  

 The cross between the Lhasa and a 10lb toy poodle creates the most beautiful,  soft coated companion for families with children of all ages. These dogs are non shedding, hypoallergenic, and easily trained.  

 ~ We are the Yoder family of 3. My husband and I have been married for 31  years and we have one daughter. My husband has been in the woodworking industry for many years. All three of us love hunting and fishing and our daughter has two horses and loves horseback riding. I no longer have the ability to follow those hobbies, due to having a stroke at 21 years old, caused by a brain aneurysm. I am also a 30 year cancer survivor. With God’s blessings, he has granted me the good health and courage to do what I love and enjoy, being a hobby breeder since 2003. (Adorable Pets) Making memories, happy families and friends is my goal and brings me great joy! 

~ Blessings to everyone!

CT Hi Mary, Pictures, Jack @ 9.5 months old. He is a wonderful dog and family member. Thank you for raising such wonderful puppies.

SC Hi Mary, The puppy is now close to 5 lbs. She is learning quickly and very smart. She barks when I ask her if she wants a treat. She is a real joy and great addition to our family. Thank you again. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

KY Hello, Stella has definitely been a bright light in our lives and important part of our family. She has the sweetest spirit. Everyone who meets her, falls in love.

MI Hi Mary, We enjoy Rascal. He is such a sweet and lovable puppy. We absolutely love him. My grandsone really loves him. Toby, my 16 year old Lhasa Apso and Rascal enjoy each others companionship. They get along so great. Thank you for having such wonderful pets for me and my family. We all enjoy him so much.

NC Dear Mary, We can't wait to meet you. Buddy is almost 8 lbs. He is halfway through puppy classes at Petco. Everyone who meets him says he the cutest puppy they have ever seen. We agree. He is as smart as he is cute. He rings bells to go potty and sleeps really well in his crate. Buddy has become our best friend.

OH Dear Mary & Daughter, Your sweet little puppy. His name is now Max. He has been the best addition to our family. We couldn't have asked for a sweeter/playful little dog. He's also the most soft coated little cuddly teddy bear. He fits right in. My 5 year old and almost 3 year old love him. I love him and my husband thinks the world of him. He and Max are best buds. Daisy, our (12 year old) Chorkie, loves him and she is picky. We can't speak highly enough of how you had raised him. All of our family members want a dog like Max.

PA Mary, It has been a joy getting to know you. Thank you so much for bringing such joy to our family with Roxy.
