Yesterday my husband were just lying on the couch playing around with Pasquale.....and he looks at me and says "you know, if it wasnt for the fact that we travel so much, I would love to get another Yorkie". I nearly fell off the chair!!!!!!!! Is this the same guy who didnt want a "small dog" to begin with?? Ok i want to know which one of you stole my REAL husband!! LOL

| You have to tell him that 2 travel just as easy as 1. We take our Bichon & Yorkie everywhere with us. If they can't go, we don't go. And if you have to have someone watch them while you are gone...they do better with each other there instead of just one, alone. My hubby was the same way...."one dog is enough....we travel to much, etc." We found it isn't any harder with two than one. |

| well, speaking from experience...we have a home in Texas and one in Wa state, you can travel with two, but it is much more expensive. It's 400 dollars for a round trip for both of them from one house to the other (airplane). I love having two and wouldn't have it any other way, but it is more expensive and while technically you could travel with both of them and just one person, I don't see how I would ever be able to manage it.

| That's funny! Boy I'd run with that one and be sure you don't let him forget what he said.lol I remember years ago I said someday I would like to get a yorkie and my husband replied, why would you want a little yappy dog. Well as many of us know the rest is history. One day he was outside with Samantha and I over heard him say I think you need a partner in crime and the hunt was on. So three yorkies and many years later my husband has become the biggest pushover. And me? well I just smile. |

| I have the opposite problem. My DH says on a regular basis that he wouldn't mind having 5 or 6.

| I think there is a virus going around... LOL! When I was talking about getting a second Yorkie there was always this 'not in my life time' but when I was talking about those poor rescue babies the tune changed to 'we could do that' and now we have 4 (in letters four!) They travel better in twos b/c they can share a crate and they can keep each other company when you go out for dinner etc. ect..... |

| In the past 72 hours, my husband went from 'let's wait a few months' for our #2 to telling our present Yorkie tonight that he's going to be a big brother. I've been working on him for a few months. :-) |
