Judy is the BEST, most loving, caring dog person I've ever met! My fiancé got her first dog, Bella,…read morefrom Judy 20 years ago. She was the sweetest being and lived along and happy life for 16 years. When she passed, we found out that Judy was still offering such beautiful fur babies, and we went to her again. She is the real deal! She let us know about a new litter and we fell in love with one of them! Both were 100% healthy and well behaved and loving and sweet! She has turned out to be just as sweet and beautiful as Bella was! We truly believe it is all because of Judy's loving care while nurturing them in that all important young puppy stage. She was an is the best! Such a good person! As far as those negative, irresponsible and disrespectful comments posted by DEBY S., such wild and inaccurate accusations and characterizations of such a good person are horribly misguided and does not characterize the person that we have come to know and love, and were provided two amazing, beautiful puppies from, 20 years apart! If that isn't evidence enough to contradict the comments by a disgruntled breeder, I don't know what else would! God bless you Judy! We appreciate you so much.

I was one of her Fresno breeders, but I stopped selling to her after I found out she was using my…read morename, stock photos, etc, for other puppies she purchased from unscrupulous backyard breeders and representing them as mine. I retired from breeding and I later discovered that my name was mentioned in a complaint on a ripoff site against Judy, and she had continued to use my name and my stock photos for years afterward, presenting them as the stud/dam to puppies she is currently selling. She exhibits unscrupulous behavior and lacks integrity, often fabricating stories about care, and for many years, she has been known to sell questionable, healthy puppies. Furthermore, her website falsely promotes that the puppies are vet-checked and provides a certification from a veterinarian who retired a decade ago and no longer owns the business.

Jessey (the owner of Fetch in the City) has been taking care of my dog for almost 2 years now…read more(since he was a puppy). I cannot say anything but fantastic things about her and the business she runs. She loves and takes care of my dog as if he were her own and he loves her like a 2nd mom (me being his #1 mom of course :-). My pup comes home from his playgroup everyday thoroughly exercised and entertained (which is key when you live in an SF condo with no backyard). I have recommended Fetch in the City to a number of friends and everyone has been extremely happy with the service Jessey and Fetch in the City provide.

Oliver is My Dream Jam's Yorkie!…read more I first spoke with Jam when her latest litter of Yorkies was only four days old. Just after that call, she sent me pictures and video clips of the pups, and I was blessed to pick the puppy that I had already selected a name for - Oliver (which means "peace"). Once I shared his name with Jam, she began calling him by that name. Consequently, by the time I brought him home, just under two weeks ago, he already knew and responded to his name. Over the subsequent weeks, Jam and I stayed in constant contact, with her sending weekly videos and pictures of Oliver and his littermates. Throughout the process, I was completely involved and informed. At about seven weeks, I was able to visit Oliver for the first time. He was about the size of my hand, and it was precious to begin the bonding process. What struck me when I visited was the look and feel of the environment. Jam raises the puppies in her home, along with her family, and the puppies get an abundance of love and excellent care. I was also afforded the opportunity to meet Oliver's parents and some of the other adult Yorkies in the home. All of the dogs were well-socialized, friendly, and well-behaved. I officially became one of the pack when not one, but two, of the adult dogs, climbed onto my lap as I sat on the floor, two of Oliver's littermates curled up under my leg and fell asleep, and finally, one of his brothers fell asleep between my feet. Needless to say, all of Jam's dogs love people. I visited Oliver again at about nine weeks and finally brought him home at 12 weeks. Before we left, Jam provided me with helpful information, one of Oliver's favorite toys that had his mom's and littermates' scent, a pack of treats, and items that I needed to get started. On the ride home, Oliver was quiet in his carrier, and thankfully, did not get carsick, which often occurs with small dogs or puppies. The first night in his playpen, he only cried for about 20 minutes and then slept through the night. The next night, he cried for about five minutes, and now, he knows when it's bedtime because I turn the lights off and leave a nightlight on for him. In the morning, at first, he would yelp if he heard me downstairs, but now he's completely patient because he knows that I will come up to get him. That greeting every morning is priceless and when I let him out of his playpen, he excitedly runs around me until I pick him up. As for personality, Oliver is amazing! He is a very playful ball of energy, healthy, and intelligent (he's already learned sit/down/come). He loves to cuddle and one of his favorite pastimes is falling asleep on my lap with his chin resting on my arm. He is also very independent. He's definitely my shadow, and one thing that I noticed is that when I have company, or if I'm sitting on the sofa, he will sit or lay at my feet until I pick him up. He loves people and gives them the same enthusiasm as he gives me, yet he will always run back to me during play. He has adjusted extremely well, does not bark or whine, has a mellow spirit, and is now learning to walk on a leash (indoors until it's okay for him to go outside). I so appreciate Jam's love for, and knowledge of, the Yorkie breed. She has been breeding Yorkies for about 16 years and has a wealth of knowledge and expertise. It is important to her to match the right puppy with the right client, so as a low-key, laid-back person, having a mellow-tempered Yorkie is a perfect match. I understand that some breeders let their pups go at eight weeks (which is too early for the natural separation of mother and puppy), and once the puppy goes to its forever home, the new owner is pretty much on his or her own. Not so with Jam. Even after I brought Oliver home, she checked on us several times to ensure we were doing okay, and each time I reach out to her for "how-to's" or other information, she is always responsive. I would highly recommend Jam's Yorkies to anyone looking for a reputable breeder who truly cares about the health and well-being of her puppies!

Had a heartfelt meeting with a Yorkie near my house and felt compelled to find a friend for my pup…read moreafter that encounter. Did my research and did it well! Was debating between a "farm" in the Sacramento region and Jam's, but saw red flags of likely a puppy mill at the other. Also, Jam took the time to talk to me because she wants to ensure that the pups are indeed going to great homes. Asked her if she had any pups available and she pointed me to the pup who is now my baby. His name is Bear (originally Wednesday), and I saw he was perfect. He is adorable and sweet and spunky. Drove down from Sacramento & got him in July 2023 and he will be 2 in February 2025. A lady stopped us on our walk the other day to say how much she was admiring him. Bear is the smallest of the bunch, but he is the head of the household. Thank you Jam!

I rarely post reviews, but sharing our experience in case it can save a puppy from trauma. We sent…read moreour 4 month puppy to Gabby for a board and train to address fearful reactivity and aggression. We now realize that we should have asked for more specifics, but we were focused on training and it didn't cross our minds that inhumane living conditions might be an issue. Updates via text indicated the training was helping. When we set up a call to plan for the the transition home, because my parents would need to handle her alone soon after, Gabby told us not to overthink it. But when we met for the return home hand-off, it became clear that we had made a horrible mistake in trusting Gabby. We watched her lift our puppy by the neck with a slip lead into her car. She casually mentioned that it had taken her a while to learn the difference between our puppy's screams for "I want out of the crate" v. "I need water" or "I need to pee". When our puppy got home, she slept near her water bowl for several days, sometimes resting her head on it - something we had never seen before. She was 7 lbs when she was handed to Gabby, and 6 lb 4 oz when she got home. Gabby had switched her to food that is specifically not recommended for puppies. We could feel every vertebrae in her spine and she moved awkwardly, like she hadn't walked or stretched regularly. She had also made no progress on reactivity at home, and we had to make an emergency call to Gabby to take her back for a couple days, because the plan we had in place for transition fell wildly short of what was needed. When Gabby came to pick her up, our puppy cowered and hid. Gabby lifted her by the neck with the slip lead again. We got her home as soon as possible, and are now working with a behaviorist to overcome the original issues, plus the added fear and anxiety from her time with Gabby. When we contacted Gabby with our concerns, she stood by her actions. Our hearts hurt for our puppy and any other dogs she has treated inhumanely. Updated after Gabby's response to clarify that our concerns are in fact with inhumane treatment that we witnessed directly and that Gabby described to us. We were aware going into this relationship that we would have ongoing work to do with our pup, but never in our wildest dreams imagined that our trainer would laugh about learning our puppy's scream for water, lift her several feet in the air by the slip lead, or tell us that it would be appropriate for her to fly two feet through the air as a result of a correction. Gabby still has not responded to our requests for detailed information about how much time was actually spent training each day v. in the crate or confirmed that she had water in her crate. We only had Gabby's short text messages to rely on for information during the board and train, but it became clear once our puppy came home that she was absolutely terrified of Gabby. If we had known what was going on, we would have brought her home much sooner.
