I'm sorry to be the one to break it to those who knew her and hadn't heard. While Kimberly hasn't been active in a long time here, she was always one of my heroes. By a stroke of luck, I got one of the last dogs she whelped, Jillie, and Jillie's social skills say all you need to know about Kimberly King. As a breeder, she had friends and she had enemies, but she knew how to raise Yorkies.
Her Web site, Yorkie breeders site: AKC Yorkshire Terrier breeder exhibitor of yorkie puppies - Yorkiepassion, is packed with information about Yorkie care and ownership that is a must read for Yorkie owners. I hope the information she has there can be preserved.
R.I.P., Kimberly. Thanks for teaching me about Yorkies. You will be missed. |
Oh My God ! I had lost touch with her a long time ago but found out she was diagnosed and wrote her not 6 months ago......She answered and told me she was doing well so in my mind I thought she was going to survive this. I feel terrible for not writing her again to check up on her
I'm in shock. OMG ....I really am - What sad sad news..
