| I am torn!!! help Ok guys, I have been looking for my baby girl, and I have had no luck, it's either a scammer or they want "and arm and a leg" haha and I am not going to breed her so I am not going to pay more that 1300$ . I have been thinking if this is something I should do. Peanut iattached to me ( he is sitting on my lap as we speak) and I know some of you also have attached yorkies that have gotten another one so I know it can be done and I know they are ok with it, but I think peanut is different. He goes everywhere with me and VERY SPOILED !! He even goes to work with me! I know that peanut would love a sister, but I also think he loves being the only one in the family that gets allllll the attention and love. My friend will sometimes bring over her girl yorkie and they play great and peanut is content with her, but when she leaves you can see peanut change in his mood..like he is saying "yeayy shes gone its just me now!" Even DH notices that so I know I am not crazy lol. I know peanut would love to hang out at home with his sister, but I know he would rather go to work with me and lay in his bed....and be a lot happier and DH agrees with that as well. And if I do get a girl I wouldnt take peanut with me everywhere I would leave him home a lot more. And I dont know I honeslty think peanut is sooo use to going everywhere with me he would be a alittle sad...And I dont know how dogs are I never really had a dog esp my own that is as attached to me as peanut is so I am not sure..maybe I am thinking too much of this i dunno So even though I would loveeee to have another girl esp a yorkie that I can spoil and put in dresses and have a forever playmate for peanut I think I need to hear what you guys say and to think about it a little more. Maybe you guys have attached single yorkies and have gotten another one and they do even better I dunno...soo let me know!!!

| Sounds like you are just as attatched to Peanut as he is to you...maybe your not ready just yet either which is why your going back and forth. I WOULD love to be able to take Bella Mia to work with me. Sounds like that is an awesome bond you two have. However if you decide to get a lil girlie maybe you can take looking slowly and when the opportunity arises for a lil girl at your price you will know it is time. GOOD LUCK!!!!

| To me it was like having my second child. They are different, you love them both. Some are funner than others to shop with though lol. I adore both of my yorkies, Luna is still a baby and takes long naps etc so I can have lots of alone time with Maggie. I say go for it.

That is true! Peanut is my baby! My first dog..I always wanted a yorkie and I got the perfect little peanut! So I spoil him and just want to make sure he is happy!! You know? I want to be fair to him as well.

| I know exactly how you are feeling. It's like you want to do what's best for them...maybe getting a playmate will make them happy but at the same time he's your shadow and you're thinking how the dynamics will change. I take him everywhere with me too. Wouldn't it be nearly impossible to take them both? I would miss my little man and I know he would miss going with me too. This is such a hard decision..........we want to make sure we don't make the wrong move. I just don't know what to do either but I'm thinking that if it's this hard then maybe it's just not right. I mean, with my boy I knew immediately and was committed 200% from the start! Keep me posted with what you decide. |

| I have had Molly since 6/25. We rescued Rocky, a small 7 month old terrier mix of some kind, about 2 weeks later. We got another small dog bc Molly wasn't playful w/the kids, and was stuck to me, and I wanted them to have a dog. Though I guess I didn't really think about the extra work, house breaking 2 dogs, etc. (Which isn't too bad now, the first few weeks I had a hard time). Rocky has turned out to be good for her I think. Molly's personality has "come out" more since we got her. She wasn't playful before, and now she is with him. I think he gets on her nerves sometimes w/ playing too much, but I think they love each other! |

| As a Momma to 3 lil' girls...it's hard to just have one BUT...something to think about if you do add to your family...whatever you are doing for Peanut now...just times it by two...time...$$$...just everything. Peanut will probably enjoy the company of another fursibling...there is just something about my girls...they seem to know their own kind...and kinda have a lil' secret society...heeheehee! Good luck in your decision & keep us posted whatever you decide!

Well it would be hard to take both peanut and the new baby...I mean I would take them to familys house and all that but peanut goes to the chiropracter with me and when I go tan the girl at the front will watch him for me and I take peanut to work... I think if I were to take them both to work the new baby would have to be as mellow as peanut lol...
