Although a small group, we currently have members from as far afield as Canada, USA including Hawaii,
Singapore, The Netherlands, United Kingdom, Hong Kong, New Zealand,
Republic of South Africa, Israel and all States of Australia.
Here at Yetholme, where we enjoy our yorkies so much and are grateful for the pleasure they have brought to us over decades, and the many wonderful friends
we have made here and abroad, we believe we should do our part to 'repay' these many blessings to the community of yorkie lovers. This we strive to do
by organising our annual Yorkie Yule Fest and our OzYorkieRipples weblist, both of which grow in strength from day to day, year to year.
Other 'services' to the breed and other areas include:
Active involvement in breeding and exhibiting quality Yorkshire Terriers for 30 years; prior to that, breeder/exhibitor of
top quality Anglo Arabians and Welsh Mountain Ponies since 1960;
Life Membership of the NSW Yorkshire Terrier Club, for more than 10 years as Editor of the newsletter and other areas;
Member, A.C.T. Australian Silky Terrier & Yorkshire Terrier Club;
(Formerly) breed lecture presenter to trainee judges;
Justice of the Peace, NSW;
Recipient of Papal Cross Pro Ecclesia et Pontifice;
Publicity Officer of proposed Greater Western Yorkshire Terrier Club of NSW;
A 24/7 yorkie 'help line' ;
Yorkie Rescue;
In conjunction with the Yorkie Yule Fest, we produce the only Australian-based yorkie
calendar;
Aspirations: for many years have been compiling a history of the yorkie in
Australia with the view to writing a book one day.
We are grateful to our wonderful puppy people; they are the greatest exponents and ambassadors for the yorkie breed; they take
their 'babies' out where the people are,
they enjoy their dogs and the companionship they bring... walking, the beach, parks,
and just generally make them visible to the public and proudly 'sell' their virtues
to anybody who asks about them. Many people do not know what a yorkie is,
often confusing them for the 'Sydney Silky', the former name for the Australian Silky Terrier.
Pet people are vital to the continued existence of the showdog, to purebred dogs
in general, instead of the current trendy fad of so-called 'designer dogs' which are
beset with so many health problems.
BE DOGKIND TO MANKIND - Share your life with a yorkie. You'll be hooked.
Once you've been owned by a yorkie, you're hooked for life.
