My name is Richard Spiva. My late wife Peggy and I have been breeding and finding loving homes for Maltese Yorkshire Terriers (Yorkies), and Maltese/Yorkshire Terriers (Morkies) for over 17 years.

I am a very honest and trustworthy person and will always put the well-being of my animals first. Our previous business name was Emerald Ridge Grooming and Breeding. My new business will be called EmeraldBreeding.com.

I love raising and finding new families for all my fur babies. I will always have references available from previous customers along with my veterinarians Dr. Mark Reihl and Dr. Sam Burroughs of the Animal Medical Clinic in Bristol, TN. With their expertise and direction, I always want to ensure that our puppies are healthy and ready for their forever home.

All parents are currently being DNA Health tested and all puppies come with a one-year health guarantee along with their first shots and deworming.

I take pride in the animals that I raise and breed and want to make sure that every customer is extremely happy, but also that every baby finds a safe and happy home.
