She was just one week shy of her first birthday and barely weighed in at 3 lbs.

We are down in Florida, parked at a friends house while I search for cancer treatment for myself here. Well the next door neighbors have these 2 black labs who bark constantly whenever any of us are outside or if they can see even a shadow of us in our bus windows. They jump at the fence barking their heads off whenever Curly is outside.

Today, I had JUST let Curly out to run with Jack, my 6 yr old, after cutting her hair for 2 hours or more so I know she was sick of being still. She took off running like she does, fast as she can, circling around the yard. And OF COURSE those damn dogs start barking and going crazy at the fence and of course she runs over to bark back and when she got close enough, one of them finally broke one of the fence pieces (I dunno what they're called) open and grabbed her. By the time we got into their back yard, the neighbor kid was trying to hold on to both his dogs and my son grabbed Curly and we rushed her to the hospital, less than a mile away. She wasn't dead, just staring up at me, not making a sound. I could tell she was still breathing but very shallow. The vet could hardly get a pulse and her blood pressure was so low, he couldn't even get a vein to put an IV in. She had several puncture wounds and the vet said they severed her spinal cord and she wasn't going to make it. Soon, I decided to let them go ahead and put her down so she wouldn't suffer anymore. But then, as I kissed her, she took her last breath and she was gone.

I can't stop crying and we're all just so broken hearted. My little boy just screamed when that dog grabbed her but there was nothing anyone could do.
I can't believe my little baby is gone. ]]> In Memory Of...

I came home and he was laying on the floor, id rather not tell all the other details of what i saw, but i was devastated, shocked, horrified, heartbroken, so many emotions. My mother, I and my boyfriend rushed him to the emergency vet, and they said he was in and out of conciousness, and they had him on valum so he was in alot pain. We didnt want him to continue suffering, so my mom made the decision to get him put to sleep. We spent the last precious moments with him before and during and a little after the euthanization. It is by far the most heartwrenching moment of my life, and it was so hard to let go. My family and I made Rusty part of the family when i was 4 and im now 18, he was 14. I miss him very much, and im sure this wound wont ever completely heal, but I do have some peace knowing that he's in a better place and hes okay. What i wouldnt give for one more sloppy, slobbery kiss, or one more minute of him licking the tears off of my face, or just to see him playing. I love him and he'll forever have every broken piece of my heart. We love and miss you so very much Rusty, rest in peace sweet baby boy.

We were expecting 3 and were very surprised when a 4th little puppy came. He was as big as his brother's and sister's but his features were much less developed and he was gasping for air from the beginning. We did everything we could think of and were very upset when the on-call vet was not answering (needless to say we are looking at new vet's in the area). We ended up losing him after about an hour of myself and momma dog trying to keep him breathing. I would appreciate any recommendations of what to try if this is to happen again in future litters.

I look to the... Dear Cassie,
In the past I have written poems in your memory for you but tonight I feel led to write you this letter.

I look to the Lord and ask HIM to hold you a little bit tighter for me today.
It has been four years now since that most difficult sad day in our life. I treasure all our memories with you.

So much has happened these past months, with each trial in life we are drawn closer to the Lord and just wanted you to know about Daddie, although I kinda think you knew. I believe you were your Daddie’s Guardian Angel in June. When Daddy was in the hospital I took the little knit swatch I use to give him to help his left hand from the Parkinson tremor. When I placed it in his hand, he kept rubbing his forehead with it, kept calling it his Cassie Love. He held onto that little swatch and kept calling it his Cassie Love. He doesn’t remember that now, so very much he doesn’t remember, but the mere fact that he was calling that little swatch his Cassie Love, let me know you were a part along with everyone's prayers in his coming back to me and my bringing him home.

It was after your passing that God guided us to find this wonderful Group of yorkie families here at Yorkie Talk, how wonderful they have been to us. I know it was through their prayers (along with others elsewhere) that God has given Daddy and myself more time to be together. Many things have changed for us and also since you left us, but one thing will never change, that is God loving each of us so much and getting us through these trials in life. Knowing that you are in HIS loving care is so much comfort to me, these past months have taught me so much, I am able to understand more than ever how temporary this life is but that God has much, much greater things in store for us to all be together one day. Thank you Cassie, for continuing to be with us.

We continue sharing that love which we hold for you with our girls now, how blessed we are with each of them.

We will always love you,
Mommie and Daddie.

This song reminds me of the love of many wonderful people here at Yorkie Talk. Cassie you were that reason for our finding this site..

He was brought back into the Vet Hospital after having kennel cough, pneumonia and being hypoglycemic - they tried for hours to try and bring his blood sugars back up but he was fading fast. I lost my first little yorkie baby only a week after getting him, it's been extremely heartbreaking but I loved him just the same.

This past summer we had to have (Muffin) our 14 year old (collie shepherd) put to sleep, since then, the very day my husband put her in the car and left, our 6 year old teacup Yorkie "Chilly" has been listless, over-eating, just laying in his bed looking out of his window, still happy to see us when we came home, but just not the same. I wanted to get another puppy right away, but everyone told me to give him some time to grieve her. I couldn't stand it any longer, about a week and 1/2 ago, after searching for her, I found another puppy! It was one of those things where as soon as I saw her picture I knew my search was over, but she was in Ohio & we're in Michigan 3 &1/2 hours away, Now I'm not one to travel for a dog, but like I said, I knew this was "her". She's a Black & Tan, with white paw's, and a white breast in front, just beautiful! Oh yeah (A Mini-Aussi-Shepherd), and she was the runt of an unexpected litter. I couldn't wait to get her for Chilly, I thought, finally he'll get some exercise, and be happy not to be alone all day while we work, And she would be just a bit smaller thna him, so he could be the big brother. Chilly is almost exactly the sams age Muffin was when we got him. Of course I have one of those husband's that think dog's cost around $10, so yes, I lied...she was really $575, and the lady was nice enough to write out an actual receipt stuck in with her papers & a fake one for $150. We went to get her, it will be 2 week's tomorrow since we've had her. Her name is "Holly" and Chilly seem's to HATE her! A couple of times out in the yard (wher HE feel's like it) they will run, jump, and chase eachother, it's only happened a few times though, did I do a bad thing? I would hate to have made him from sad to angry. It's usually inside the house when he's snippy & protecting his territory. I thought this would be a great thing, the vet said he had put on 2&1/2lbs. since Muffin Died & that was NOT healthy for a Tea-cup! The vet said give it time it sometimes takes awhile for them to adjust to eachother, he also said as she grows, it would get better. She's supposed to be about 13" and approx 17 - 20 lbs., right now she weighs about 3 lbs. Can anyone out there who bought a new puppy while having another for it to come home to help me? Is it too soon for me to expect bonding, all she does is jump all over him wanting to play, like a puppy! Can some help me with some personal stories of thier own...Please...! I've attached a Picture of Chilly w/ Muffin & Chilly & Holly, thank you for any answer's. Sherri

I thought I was doing the right thing by waiting until I was an established self-sufficient adult. I did a lot of research, found what I thought was a reputable breeder, got pet insurance and bought him the most nutritious food. I suspected a liver shunt within the first two weeks, but at every vet vaccine visit I was told he was fine.

For the last few days he began acting extremely lethargic on and off, so we made him another appointment and took him in right away. He was at the vets for three hours this afternoon gobbling up tasty food and getting some blood work done. Within an hour of taking him home from the vet he went into a coma and died in my arms. My heart is broken and I just want him back. I feel so sad.

Now that he's gone, I've found numerous others who have suffered the same fate. Unfortunately, I went for the "Tiny" or "Teacup" variety of dog thinking it was perfectly normal to just have a small healthy dog. I was so wrong. They are genetically inferior, and it's unfair to the dog to be breeding such small creatures. Yes, they are adorable and make your heart melt, but it's incredibly cruel for so-called "breeders" to be producing these tiny dogs fully knowing they are so incredibly fragile and vulnerable in a natural environment.

I work for a large and widely read newspaper and I feel it is my responsibility to dispell this misconception about teacup pups. My editor will know about this growing trend of tiny designer dogs, because awareness and appropriate publicity is the best way to get the word out fast and possibly prevent people from purchasing these pups.

I hope that the motivation I feel to tell people the truth will make our puppy's death bring some good.

She wasn't sick or anything. I left to go to work and my daughter called me about 8 hours later saying that she was scared and blood was everywhere. I left work, no questions asked. i work about 5 minutes from home and the vets office is literally around the corner from my home. I rushed through the door and Roxy was laying on the floor barely breathing. I was so scared to touch her I didn't know what to do. I was in total shock. My daughter picked her up and put her in her bed and we rushed her to the vets office. They rushed her in the back and put her on a ventilator... between home and the vet she was gone but they brought her back. I was too scared to see her. I have lost a child before and because of it, death and me don't understand one another. My Roxy, my rose turned out to be brain dead. I fell to my knees crying what am I suppose to do with out her. My husband left to be there for me and with me, and so did my best friend.
Dr. Knowles told me that he may see this case once a year, some animals can get a rare bacteria from eating grass, dirt whatever and it takes over and there are no signs and their vital organs begin shut down. My baby... gone without a sign or warning.
i have some relief in knowing that she waited for me to get home before she left. but I cant help but think... what could I have done. what did I do wrong... I miss her oh Lord do I miss her. She was my 3 pound baby... a small Yorkie with a big breed mentality. I will and can not ever forget her.
i have not taken this well. My husband and kids did bring me a new Yorkie. I named him Yoda. He is my heart. He was not to replace Roxy, but to fill in that hole that I will forever have.
Sometimes I think I can hear her bark. I miss her greeting me at the door. i miss her fussing because she wanted me to pick her up, I miss her chasing my cat. I just miss everything about her.
I love you Roxy... from the day I met you at 4 days old until you turned 5 years old. I will forever miss you!!

I miss him so much he was a little ASBO but the most loving dog I haver ever had in my life. Barney touched my soul we have since bought a bichon frise as a companion for my s**tzu whose 2 and my 15 year old bichon. I dont know what has happened to me since having a yorkie its like my home is empty withput him. Though he was only little he filled the house with his character. I feelm like I have been seduced by the yorkie breed I just love them. But because my yorkie suffered so much in his life from nervousnes and anxiety, parthese disease whichhe had surgery for and halcabacter bacteria in his gut. He has cost thousands in vet bills but to see him suffer tore me apart and that has put me off ever getting another yorkie. That is why I got a bichon for my s**tzu but there is an emptiness that can not be filled. I lnow I cant replace him but I feel the yorkie is the breed for me. They are totally mental well he was but i loved him even his asbo behaviour not many people wouold have put up with him but i loved him to bits and he will always have a special place in my heart. He was only 5 years old when i had to have him put to sleep but we had exhausted every treatment. I dont know if I should offer a home for a yorkie or not as it may not get on with my other dogs maybe im just being selfish any advice on this would be much appreciated.
