WOW! WOW! Fantastic telling of Smoky’s story in less than 3 minutes. What an amazing little dog and owner. How wonderful of David Frei and the Westminster Kennel Club to produce such a great feature!

I am so glad we could tell this story on the Westminster telecast. God bless you, Bill, and Smoky too, and all of you men and women of the greatest generation (including my dad, Jerry). Thanks for all that you did for us.

I love the story of Smoky and Bill Wynne. I know Bill and he’s a wonderful person and trainer. Smoky is an icon of all Yorkies and their tremendous spirit and large hearts.

It has been an honor to know, love and work with Bill over the past 12 years. He is truly an ambassador for the breed and never misses the chance to help a yorkie in need. We at YTNR have been honored to have an Annual Smoky Award that we give to one dog each year that was adopted in the previous year.
Thank you David for this wonderful tribute to Bill I know he was honored to see you recognize him nationally at the Westminster Show this is a fantastic piece.
God Bless each of you.

Great tribute to a special animal “Smoky” and his
exceptional owner Bill Wynne. Everyone must read
this remarkable story “Yorkie Doodle Dandy” to experience the wonder and relationship of all time.
It is with great pleasure that I follow the continuing
tribute to Smoky and Bill. Mankind has benefited greatly.
