| Taking bella out So just a question When I go out with my 2lb 5 month old yorkie I can hardly get anywhere when in a crowd without having someone stop me and tell me how cute my yorkie is and how much they want one and where did I buy her lol Not a problem really but does this happen to other people too |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Lol, yes...that happens a lot with our Marcel and Pfeiffer bc they're smaller and bc Pfeiffer is a tri-color. There are so many awful yorkie breeders out there so I always make sure to warn them of it, if they seem truly interested in getting a yorkie. Sometimes, I'll tell them where I got Marcel.

| Tis happens a lot with us, too, especially when I have her all dressed up. I also give the speech about BYB's and most people are very receptive to it, wanting to know more. Your Bella is beautiful!!! No wonder you get bombarded with compliments!

YT 2000 Club Member | Oh, yeah......Teeka, Max & Tatiana attract a lot of attention! I was asked how much they cost and told them......whoo, the reaction was shock! I also tell them how much work & care that come along with all that cuteness. Hopefully it deters a few. I love the attention and so do my girls.....they always shower people with a tail wiggle and puppy kisses......they are just so friendly!

| There's a vet tech that actually takes Cinders on a tour of the staff when we go in. She weighs her, takes her off the scale and says, brb...They come back within 10 mins, so I know Cinders was getting all kinds of love. The other dog owners ask a ton of questions. How old? How big will she get? Only a little girl on my block asked how much. ** She is saving for a yorkie, and has 10.00 saved as of Sunday!** The groomers is the same way, lots of questions, lots of attention. I haven't taken her out into a crowd, yet she seems to make small crowds on her own.

| It's extreme. And, she expected EVERYONE to notice and make over her. Whenever she passed people in the store she sticks herself out to make sure she's seen. When I shop with my friends I always get the lecture about how they're not going to be in the store a long time, stopping at everyone who passes by because they want talk to and about her. She loves every minute of it!

| Toki and Teddy get lots of attention. And I always stop people in public that I see with a yorkie, even just to compliment them! I feel like us yorkie owners (not just the ones on YT) have a certain connection and I always love it when people stop and tell me that they also have a yorkie at home |

| Yorkies are like magnets! They draw people from the middle of nowhere to you. We like to take ours for walks on the beach and the beach could be desserted, just be there 5mins and there are people hanging around and asking "those" questions |

| yes! I took Miley to the vet yesterday for her check up and this lady touched her...I just about came out of my skin haha call me over protective but I was no comfortable with her touching Miley since Miley doesn't have all of her shots. How old is your Bella? she sure is a cutie!

| Oh ya and it's usually when you say a responsible breeder and how much you spent they lose interest |
