| New guy here with a Yorkie. Hello, My name is Chris, I'm a young guy here with my Yorkie looking for information, and maybe friends Back in Early July I was browsing Craigslist (I know, not the best site) and I had been just tossing around the idea of getting another dog, this was after having to put my 16 year old Chihuahua down in January of this year. He developed some severe health problems and it just wasn't fair for him to continue on with suffering. After months of grieving over my Tiny I started looking around because with him gone there was for sure a void in my life. Ive always wanted a Yorkie, but have never been able to pay the high prices for the little companions. So with no high expectations I type yorkie into the search field and yielded some results. The first thread I came to had just been posted no longer then 20 minutes before I found it. Low and behold I found my Jenny. I called the guy up and he had already gotten 10 emails not including mine and he said there was a few people in front of me. We talked for a good hour and after sharing a lot of information he decided I would be a wonderful person to re-home little jenny too. I went to pick her up that night around 8pm. She has for sure filled the void in my life that was missing from my lil childhood friend I had to let go. She reminds me so much of him more and more every day. I did have to pay an adoption fee of $150.00 but so far she's worth every bit of it and more. Sorry for the long introduction, but I figured it would be better to type it all up front instead of having to type it all later from questions. Now for the pics I KNOW everyone will be wanting to see. Im posting pictures of her when I first got her and now. From the condition she was in, Im thinking they last owner did not take care of her grooming and such very well. Which is another reason I had to get her out of that house as soon as I seen her. http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...s/IMG_3054.jpg http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...s/IMG_3055.jpg http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...s/IMG_3057.jpg Getting groomed LOL! http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...s/IMG_3058.jpg All done, MUCH Better. http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...s/IMG_3061.jpg http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...s/IMG_3060.jpg http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...s/IMG_3061.jpg http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...s/IMG_3059.jpg End of that day, she was exhausted. http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p...s/IMG_3068.jpg More pics will be posted. fa789298-f2d9-4bab-bd89-dd67b8754500 1.03.01 |

| Hi, you're little girl is a cutie, and, I, totally, know about that hole in your heart, when you lose your best friend...I made the mistake of waiting over a year and a half, after I lost my best friend...I should have gotten my little Apple sooner, albeit, it wouldn't have been Apple, so I guess the timing was right, after all.. Glad you found YT...it's a wonderful place to come and get answers, and to help others, when you know the answer...Welcome to YT! All the best, Maggie & Apple & Buzz & Cha Cha (the chorkie) |
