She needs to go to the vet. A dental is due. They may put her on an antibiotic. You need some "yorkie" shampoo/conditioner and a few other "yorkie" things and you'll be set. Is she light or dark? Is she big or small? Is she mellow or a live wire? She's going to love you so much. Yorkies are the best! Congratulations on your new princess! What's her name???? Please share when you decide. It's not uncommon to go through a few names before you find the right one. Have fun and enjoy her. You're a special lady for taking in a rescue. She's going to remember that, even if she's still a princess. Hope you have lots of fun with her. | |

| We got Kona in September when she was just over 7 years old. She spent a lot of time in her crate (by her own choice) the first day or two she was at our house. It took her a little while to "come around" to us, but now I think she really likes us. She follows me around everywhere now. We also changed her name. When she came to us her name was Sweet Pea. We wanted to name her Kona. We just combined the names for a few days then dropped the Sweat Pea altogether. You will be just fine with her! They learn to love their people real fast. |

By all means it is okay. Do not use the old name. She has a whole new life now, a new name is very fitting. I love Hannah. | |
