Yorkies Of The Shire

Yorkies Of The Shire specializes in Yorkshire terriers and is located in East Alton, IL, serving the Metro East and the St. Louis area. Founded by Alexandra Stamper, the kennel adheres to breed club guidelines and maintains health screening for joints and cardiac concerns.

Puppies are raised in a home environment where they receive daily socialization, basic obedience exposure and consistent veterinary care from an early age. The adult dogs enjoy daily supervised playtime and are introduced to children and other household pets. Indoor-outdoor access in a secure area ensures balanced development and confidence-building.

Many families appreciate the calm temperament and sturdy build in their puppies. A recent testimonial highlighted the breeder’s clear communication and thoughtful follow-up, which underscores a commitment to each dog’s long-term well-being. Health records and a starter guide are provided with each puppy to help new owners understand care routines.
