| First time Yorkie owner Hi everyone....first time yorkie owner here. My little girl was born 2/1....I'm so excited...can't wait until she's old enough to come home!!! I've been researching yorkies for a year....I have experience with small dogs (chihuahuas and miniature pinschers), but I am clueless when it comes to grooming, top knots, puppy pads, etc...etc....etc.... lol. Please give me any advice you wish someone gave you when you first purchased your first yorkie. |

| I am new too and the best thing I did was do a search on all my questions. Every question I had...I found a thread. I researched dog food, crate training, clicker training, harness, shampoo, brushes...on an on. There is a wealth of info on here. The search link is on the blue bar with User CP, FAQ, Members List, etc. I couldn't believe how helpful it was. Goodluck and Congrats!

| Welcome to YT . . . this site is much better than reading all about the breed as there are lots of real-life experiences on this site. You came to the right place. |

| I feel silly asking this question already (ESPECIALLY since it's so far in advance), but at what age should she get her first haircut? And when I first take my pup to get her first haircut, what kind of cut do you recommend? I've seen several of the young pups on here (which are all gorgeous!!!), but I'm not familiar with the grooming styles. Also....I'm located in the Central/South Jersey area if anyone can recommend a great groomer (my best friend has a silky terrier and Petco TOTALLY made him look like a Chinese Crested, lol.). |

| Titan was born on 4-1. It is nice to see so many "new" puppy owners here. We get to bring him home in a week or so. I went to visit him today and spent almost 2 hours! I planned only 20 minutes. I to look for thread for similar questions and boy are there a ton! I am enjoying YT a little to much I think. *blush* |
