| Your first Yorkie How long have you been a Yorkie owner? I think it's neat to see how long some of use have been Yorkie owned. Tilly was my first Yorkie of my own, (my mom has one so she was mine when I lived at home), I bought Tilly back in December 2005. The apartment we rented didn't allow pets so we went to get Tilly every weekend and stayed at my parents until we moved in February. She grew attached really fast and so did I. We weren't suppose to moved until April but we bought out our lease just so we could have Tilly.

Living My Yorkie Dream Donating Member | My first Yorkie is Lucky and we got him in March of 2005 when he was 3 months old. I quickly learned that one would never be enough. We bought our second yorkie Lexie in November of 2006 and are already contemplating getting our 3rd by early next year.

| Sissy We got our first Yorkie 35 yrs ago..my father gave her (Sissy) to my daughters as a Christmas gift..I wanted to murder him!!!! We had 2 other breeds and they did not work out...I had decided we were not dog people...but Yorkies are very different and I have had as many as 27 at one time..but just two for the time being..or until I want to raise another puppy... PS..Sissy was imported from the UK... Last edited by YorkieRose; 08-24-2007 at 04:09 PM. |

| Our first Yorkie was Maddie Rose(10-26-02) My best friend has 2 yorkie girls and she bred them. I got the pup- a little girl- for me...lol My daughter, Holly, fell in love with her and vice versa. They were inseparable. So Maddie became Holly's pet. Maddie passed away this pass May due to an accident at the lake. She was our introduction to the breed. Been hooked ever since.. Now I have Brodie....and he is awesome....ALready told Hubby I wanted another. He did not freak...Soooooo

Therapy Dog Donating Member | OK - my first Yorkie was in 1977 and JT lived for 8 long and happy years (he died early in life due to a medical condition); then Sruffy I got in 1978 and he lived 14 years. Then I was broken hearted and couldn't deal with getting another Yorkie so that's when the cats came into my life....then work; travel, etc., but I don't know what happened but all of a sudden I got the itch for a dog....I was not even THINKING of getting another Yorkie - I would cry every time I would see one. I was going to get a Jack Russell but then a friend of mine who breeds and shows sent me this video clip of Izzy on a Wednesday and that Sunday went down to Columbus to get her...the rest is history....so that's our story in a nutshell.

YT 1000 Club Member | I had always wanted one since I was little. I used to watch the dog shows on tv and I wouldn't move til they showed a Yorkie. I finally got Maggie (15 weeks old) last year on August 5th which is my baby sisters birthday. Then Maggie had her pups on August 1st of this year and I was only going to keep 1 but Today my Husband informed me that he knew I was having a difficult time deciding between 2 of the pups so he said I could keep them Both. I think it was his way of saying sorry for being a jerk. He burned the crap out of his fingers at work and I somehow became the reason it happened. We argued, I stormed off, today I get 2 pups. Beats flowers. |
