| Thank heaven for YT! Hi, I've been lurking around here for a little while, trying to find my way around and absorb as much info as I can and I'd like to introduce myself and jump in. I can't believe what a sweet group of people you are here! We are bringing home our very first yorkie baby at the end of July (AWWWW so long to wait it seems!). I am trying to learn everything that I need to know before she comes home. I am terrified of not knowing "enough"...lol. I think I've read just about every post here...seriously. My husband and I have laughed over the adorable videos of puppies who walk on their front legs (so funny!) and cried over the sad posts about rescue babies with disabled hind legs (but strong little persevering hearts). I've seen yorkie births and wild birthday parties. I've read about princesses being evicted by kitties and stomping out...taking their blankies with them "thank you very much!". I've learned about Biewers (still not sure how to pronounce that though) and Parti. And I know how to get gum out of hair now (phew! hopefully I'll NEVER need to use that). So much here to learn from! Amazing! I can not tell you how this breed has taken hold of my heart. The more I learn about them, the more I realize just how much these little babies are like human beings with little attitudes and everything! I have always been an animal lover (rescuing drowning ants and fallen baby birds from as young as I can remember), but these little Yorkies just take the cake. Incredible! Anyway, I am excited to be here. I can't wait until our little girl comes home. I uploaded some photos of her (from her sweetheart of a breeder). She doesn't have a name yet, though. I just can't "see" her personality yet. I keep hoping it will just come to me. I keep saying things like "Oh...look at our adorable little....ummm...our very own little....uhhhh...." Its just not there yet. Am I a bad mom already, for not knowing her name yet? C- ps...thank you to the people who sent me messages as soon as I joined. That really made me feel welcome (and not so dumb when I couldn't figure my way around at first). |

| Oh, my goodness! I just went to your profile page and checked out your album. Oh, your little girl is soooo cute! Man, I'm going to have to stop myself once more from wanting to go get another baby. Can't handle more than four with 2 being seniors. Oh, puppy breath!

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I found Yorkietalk before I found my puppy, and it really convinced me that yorkies were the breed for me. I raised two skin babies and had plenty of dogs in the past, but I was looking for a new baby, and Joey was the perfect dog for me. They're so smart, loving, and playful. Congratulations on getting your new baby. Hope you get some sleep before she gets here cause the first couple of months can be pretty rough (small bladders). I agree with you about the name, sometimes it best if wait until you find what suits them.

| wow, i am in LOVE with your little girl! I can't wait to hear what you name her! BTW, how in the heck DO you pronounce "Biewer"? Anyone? Ill admit to knowing that word for a very very long time, but just calling them "the white yorkies"... |

YT 2000 Club Member | Awe, what a sweet post that was. I can tell how excited you are to be getting your new lil one, I'll be going and checking out the pics soon as I send this post off There's so much to learn here at YT, I think I actually learn something new here everyday, lol! I'm so glad you joined, I look forward to getting to watch your furbaby grow up online and hear all the wonderful stories I know you'll be sharing with us Nope, your not a bad Momma at all, I'm the same way you are, I have to see their personality before I can name them, lol. You'll know when you have the right name, a light bulb will go off in your head and all the sudden you'll just KNOW that's the name your lil one was meant to have!

| Welcome to YT! You sound 'obsessed'...like the rest of us! Oh...Biewer is pronounced similar to 'beaver'. I asked the same question a while back!

...and you are right! I am TOTALLY obsessed now! I just can not get enough info. The thing I am trying to learn about right now is potty training. I am so worried that I am going to mess that up. She won't be coming home until she is 16 weeks. Is that too long to start potty training? C- | |
