| Hello - Newbie to the Forum Hi everyone. I finally got around to joining YT My name is April and I'm mommy to Lilly (6 year old yorkie) and RJ (5 year old german shepherd). Lilly is a puppy mill rescue that I rescued almost 2 years ago. At first, my intention was to work with her for a while... do a little training, socialize her, etc... and then find a forever home for her. However, that ended up not happening because I fell in love with her. She quickly became my spoiled little princess and I love her to pieces. I can't imagine not having her with me at this point. RJ is my 5 year old german shepherd that I have had since he was 6 months old. He is a highly trained service dog and is at my side 24/7. He's actually my second service dog and is owner trained. It was rough with some of his training, but I did it with the help of a friend as well as the help of others who owner train their own service dogs. Because of my service dog, my life has changed so much... for the better. Anyway, I just thought I'd say hi before my shyness took over again XD I have attached 3 pictures of Lilly and 1 picture of RJ. |

| Rescues I know how it is when you bring a rescue home, they are so grateful and I cannot ever let them go, I got a Bichon the other day for my Godmother, her owner went into a nursing home, My Godmother was not ready yet since she lost her last bichon last month at 19 years old, so as I write this Roxie is laying right behind me on my pillow she is so sweet and she is home, she will be 5 on Christmas Day, now I have 3 Yorkies, 1 Bichon and a cat. |

| Thank you everyone for the warm welcome <3 When I very first brought Lilly home, she absolutely hated RJ and had even bit his nose, drawing blood. And all he had done was come over to sniff her. I couldn't help it, but I had laughed because the look on his face was priceless. Since then, the two adore each other and will both curl up on my bed with me side by side. When RJ is out in the backyard playing with my sister's dog, Lilly is right there telling my sister's dog off cause she doesn't like my sister's dog rough-housing with RJ. It's funny as all get out, that's for sure. Lilly has become quite spoiled since the day I brought her home. She has quite the collection of beautiful clothes. Thankfully, she likes being dressed up XD I'm kinda addicted to buying cute clothes for her even though it's sometimes hard to find things to fit her due to her being between 10 and 12 pounds (depends on the day it seems). She's definitely not on the small size, but that's okay with me. I love her no matter what.
