We are worth Visiting. I do not know of any other chihuahua breeder that has as many puppies to choose from at all times and has such a nice place for them all to live at.
10 miles from Ocala
Located on a Major Highway
1.5 hour drive at the most from Orlando
Two hour drive from Tampa
I am available most of the time since I hardly get to go anywhere with all the babies I have. We do not need that much of an advanced notice, just make sure I am home before you come. Since I completly clean the kennels every other day, they are never unpresentable. Some breeders need two or three days to get ready for visitors. I need only to be notified to make sure I am not out to dinner or at the airport. I am even available on all holidays. All days are the same for me, just doggy aerobics all day long.

Please do not come here after visiting other breeders. This is the absolute worst thing you could do to my puppies. You are subjecting them to a host of problems ranging from parasites to the most dreaded puppy disease of all: PARVO. Many places do not practice the same dedicated measures that I do to ensure their puppies do not become subject to this horrible and deadly disease. No matter how hard I work to ensure my puppies do not become pray to Parvo, my efforts can all be worthless if a custumer carries parvo in on his or her shoes because he just left a filthly kennel prior to visiting my prescious babies. You are very welcome to pet and see the parents, but in most cases, you will not be allowed to touch the puppies unless they are over 5 weeks old. If you are coming here with 5 children expecting me to allow them to handle my puppies, you are wrong. If you cannot control your children, and I do mean CONTROL them, they will be asked to step outside and stay outside. I will not tolerate out of control children in the presence of my puppies. I love children, but I have a strong passion for the protection of my puppies. Children can easily drop puppies and have done it here in the past. I do not want to end up in court with a judge telling me that I should have KNOWN BETTER than to allow children to handle my pups in the first place after the child kills my puppy.
I am in no way discuraging families from visiting my home. There is nothing more satisifying than handing a nice family a puppy that I am proud to give them. This puppy is one that I feel confident will not cause the family, particulary the children, any heartach because of the puppy getting sick a few days after the family gets to know him or her. That is all I am doing is avoiding heartach by practicing healthy measures. (If you need a puppy shipped click here for information.)
Directions from interstate 75 coming from the south: (The Florida Turnpike turns into Interstate 75 just south of the Belleview exit) Get off of Interstate 75 at the Belleview exit, Hwy 484 (the exit just south of Ocala and north of Wildwood). Make a left and go 11 miles. Our home is on the right. The address is 11795 SW HWY 484 Dunnellon Florida 34432. Our drive way is about a half a mile long and is located 1.8 miles past HWY 200. You will pass 200 and right before you get to our drive way, you will see the following landmarks: First you will see a church on the right side of the highway and a church on the left side of the highway. shortly after that, you will see Green Gate Farms on the right. After that, start looking for a house that is near the road. You will see our mailbox shortly after you see that house and it is also on the right. Drive down the senic road until you get to our house. You cannot miss it.
When you see the gray mailbox with 11795 and Uey's on it, that is where you come in. There is a concrete entrance that leads into the long black top road.
Once you get to the black top road, just follow it to our house. The road is about 1/2 a mile long.
Directions from Interstate 75 coming from the north: Get off at the HWY 200 exit in Ocala. It is the last Ocala exit. Go right and head towards Dunnellon. Go about 8 miles until you get to HWY 484. Make a right on HWY 484. (When you are on HWY 200, drive slow. It is a huge speed trap!) Our drive way is about a half a mile long and is located 1.8 miles past HWY 200. Right before you get to our drive way, you will see the following landmarks: First you will see a church on the right side of the highway and a church on the left side of the highway. shortly after that, you will see Green Gate Farms on the right. After that, start looking for a house that is near the road. That house has a white fence around the property with lots of lawn fixtures near the road including two HUGE statues of horses. You will see a gray mailbox with 11795 and Uey's on it shortly after you see that house and it is also on the right. That is where you turn. Look for the street sign that says Uey Lane by the mailbox. Drive down the senic black top road until you get to our house. You cannot miss it. The address is 11795 SW HWY 484 Dunnellon Florida 34432.
PLEASE NOTE: Look for a very big nice concrete colvert to help you find our driveway. It is located right before the mailbox with 11795 and Uey's on it, and is
very easy to find if you know to look for it. You cannot see our house from the road.
You must travel down a very long pretty black top drive way (about a half a mile) to see our house.
Directions if you are coming from Dunnellon:
Take hwy 484 and head east towards Ocala. My driveway is about an 8 minute ride from Dunnellon. After driving for about 7 minutes, you will see an assisted living home on the right. Shortly after that, you will see Colors and Shapes Beauty Shop on the left. Shortly after that, you will see another assisted living retirement home on the right. When you get to the second retirement home, start driving slower. Look to your left for a sign on a mailbox that says Wild Turkey Lane. My driveway is the second one after that sign. You will see a blue street sign with Uey Lane on it off the road if you look hard. Right before the road is our mailbox. It is gray with 11795 and Uey's on it. That very large concrete colvert is my driveway. You will also see a long black top road unlike the other dirt roads. My house is about 1/2 mile back and is the only house back there. You cannot miss the kennel and the house.
If you are coming from another direction, just do a map quest. It will get you to my street, and you can use the above directions to find my driveway. My address is at the top of this page.
If you are arriving at night, my house will be easy to find in the woods because I will have the Christmas lights on. I left them up because it makes my house easy to find in the dark for strangers. If you are going to be late, do not be offended if I rush you out of here, especially on the weekends. I have people tell me to expect them at 10 and they arrive here at 12 all the time. At 12, I may be expecting someone else that arrives on time. I will pay attention to the person that was on time and ask the other person to wait until I am ready to spend time with them rather than be rude to the person that was on time. Please note: This may take an hour or more. I also may have some place to go and will only spend 5 minutes with you because I only have 5 minutes to spare. I do not mind it when someone is an hour late. I plan on that happening, but anything more than that, is inconsiderate and it makes my mood change. If you at least call me and let me know you will be late, that is fine. I hate to even write this, but I have waited on people who were over 2 hours late way too often and had to say something. I have dogs running the property at times and have them all locked up when I am expecting people. They do not like being locked up all day and want to run. I am a person with things to do. Some people just do not understand that. I guess that people may think this is a 9 to 5 pet store, but it is not. I am in and out and have appointments to keep just like normal people do. I may have a vet appiontment for instance and will not be here if you drive for 3 hours and arrive here late. This is another reason I am mentioning this. I hate to be short with people that travel three hours to get here, but sometimes, I have no choice. For those of you that are always punctual or at least call when you are late, I thank you. The best thing to do since you may need extra time is to give me a two hour window of when to expect you. That always works out the best for both parties. If you are coming from out of state, it is understandable that you will not be able to predict the arival time correctly. Please note: Due to the fact that only one person does 100% of the work here (about 10 full hours a day 365 days a year excluding time spent with customers), I cannot spend more than 2 hours with each customer that visits. If I did not love spending time in my kennel with my dogs each day, I would hire help, but they love me and want me to spend time with them, and I love them and want to spend time with them too. Please do not get offended, but in the past, I have had people have so much fun that they stayed here for up to 8 hours. I just cannot get my work done if I keep allowing this to happen and think that 2 hours is plenty of time to visit my kennel and socialize with my puppies in the house.
