| New to Yorkie Talk Hey everyone, I just joined the site today but I've had my Yorkie for a year now. He'll be two March 4th. At the time when I got him my parents only wanted one dog, but now we're saying that we should have had two. I know it's never too late to get another Yorkie but I don't know how Pippin would adjust to another dog in the house. He's kind of a bully (Not in a mean way) he likes to knock over smaller dogs, and try and climb over them. I'd love to have another Yorkie, but I think Pippin would get jealous cause he gets all my attention. Anyways I know I'm rambling, my point was to come on here and introduce myself. My name is Kelly and I'm 20 years old and I am a first time Yorkie owner. I got him when he was a week shy of 2 months old. We pretty much do everything together, I tried to crate train him so he'd sleep in his kennel at night but I couldn't handle the crying all night, it broke my heart so he's been sleeping with me in my bed ever since he was 2 1/2 months old. I wouldn't trade him for anything in the world. |

| Thanks. I've only been here about half a day if that and I love it already. I'm glad I'm not the only one. I couldn't handle him crying all night, I think I got him a little two young. He was only about 7 1/2 weeks old when I got him. I had to pick him up at the airport but my breeder assured me that he was ready to go. He was so small, I couldn't get over how tiny he was. He didn't have to fly alone though. A friend of mine was buying a puppy from a breeder who was good friends with my breeder so we split the shipping cost and our puppies shared a crate. -Kelly |

| Hi, Kelly!! Welcome to YT!! I have a Pippin, too, but she's a girl. She just had puppies about 7 weeks ago, so I guess they are about the same age as your Pippin. I don't let mine go until they are 12 weeks old. You can see pictures of them in the nursery on my website (Link below). We are sure glad to have you here!!

| Pippin was 7 1/2 weeks old when I got him, he's a year old now haha. I probably should have pointed that out somewhere. Yea he turned 1 March 4th 2008. I threw him a birthday party but didn't make him a cake. He got a special homecooked meal instead. Chicken and Carrots are his favorite. Except I can't feed him chicken or beef anymore because according to the vet he's allergic to it. His Lamb and Rice formula has a chicken by product in it and we've tried him on a couple different foods and a hypoallergenic formula and he refuses to eat it. Well, he at the hypoallergenic food for a couple of days but it made him constipated so he's just eating his regular lamb and rice formula now, any suggestions on what to try so he's not scratching all the time. |
