| Yorkie fever? Ok. So I have had my Loki for 3 weeks I think...and I have a Maltese and a Lhasa and I did not have this problem after I got them. I am pleasantly surprised at how getting another dog has completely changed the dynamic, they are more like a pack now. I'm home all day, no kids at home (they all grew up, the nerve!!) so I get to enjoy them a lot. I want another yorkie. Is this a common uhh affliction?? I'm thinking a little girl. Seriously curious if this has happened to a lot of yorkie owners? |

| I had a pack of 3 yorkies, all girls, all 3 years apart, they are now all passed. I have my one rescue boy, feels odd having only ONE baby lol , Cody DEMANDS all my attention reason why he is an only child lol. Think of the possible medical cost as they age, if you can afford it I say....go for it. Yorkies are addictive lol.

| I have the same issue. I just keep saying to myself I live in a small apartment and keep reminding myself of all the costs associated with another Yorkie. If cost wasn't an issue I would definitely get another yorkie.

| oh how I have wanted Lilah to have a yorkie sister forever! MY plan was when she was one but now she is three and a half and it hasn't happened. Turned out my family wanted their very own big dog (what?!? Their canine love void is not filled by me having a doting sweet devoted porcelain princess who follows my every move and can't wrestle? You're kidding!?!) and we have a sweet lab puppy in our family who I enjoy but am honestly grieving a bit that the energy I am putting into him has been in my heart waiting for a yorkie. Of course now that they have their big cuddly retriever I officially have a license to get another yorkie next year right?....

| I can tell you from experience that Yorkies are without a doubt addictive!

Matese, that is so sad to hear that your third girl grieved for 7 months!! Poor baby girl! I've only had one previous dog, and she was a pet store dog, purchased in the early 90s as a family pet (before the time of the internet where I had no idea what puppy mills were); she was around 7 lbs during her peak time, surprisingly lived to 19 years and was raised with not-so-high-quality dog food. I myself grieved for a good 3 years, crying each time at the thought of her...(love u always my little Bibi) . By the time I was ready for a new dog, I came here and have learned so much about the Yorkie breed on this forum (really, thank you to all the experienced members here!!). I made sure to get a good breeder, feed high quality food, etc etc. With all the 'homework' I've done, I can only wish that both Scottie and Casie will live until 15 years+! I guess there really is no guarantees, but we just have to do what we can to make sure they're healthy! When I first got Casie, I wondered how sad she would be if the day came and Scottie had to leave us. OHmygosh I can't bear the thought of that now. Scottie's my boy! He's my sweet sweet sweet boy! Love him so much sometimes it hurts! He's never leaving me, nope! Here's a silly before and after photo of them...hahaha... https://www.instagram.com/p/BHCwyllj...cottieandcasie

| You're babies are simply GORGEOUS, my little grieving girl was was my lil clown and to see her depressed, over losing two sisters 6 months apart was heart breaking. I gave her 6 months to adjust, it never happened, when I bought home the new kid, she was bigger at 8 weeks old then my 6 yo was lol, but, my 6 yo it was LOVE at first sight. She bonded with that baby no sooner then the puppy's paws hit the floor. She was soooo lonely. She was always "the baby" now she was "the momma" they were inseparable. They were a beautiful pair to watch.
