| Love For A Litttle One... Searching For A "Tiny"... Hi everyone.... After much thought, prayer and soul searching over the past couple of days, I have decided to bring a new little one into my world. I've found recently, that my need to care for, and love to give - to a tiny girl, is just far too overwhelming to dismiss. So........ I will be looking to bring my baby home in the next few months and would be happy to consider any available furkids that fit the (probably much scrutenized) profile below. I am looking for a reasonably priced female. (I adore little boys, but a baby girl would best fit into my current fur-family) I am looking for a "tiny". (no ill comments, please) - You may trust that I am well-skilled in the necessities of such special little pups as these sweet ones.... it takes someone with much more compassion, patience, time and love than many folks are capable of, in order to see these "tinies" thrive into beautiful adults and not fall victim to so many environmental and every day incidences that can take their lives in a single moment. I am fully aware of the additional care, dedication, devotion and knowledge of medical attetion these little ones need. My income is certainly not one of poverty, though I am not "well off" either, by any means - but I am capable of paying a reasonable price for a pup as well as providing for any unexpected medical needs which may arise with one so susceptible to injury / illness as we all know "tinies" can be - as well, I am perfectly capable of providing for a new little one throughout her life, with only the best of veterinary care, highest quality food & supplements, as well as all the best in "wardrobe", toys, living environment and luxuries such as these ... I'm so fearful when I see listings for such delicate babies... that they are being purchased as "accessories", simply due to the look and small size of them... without the new owners having a real knowledge of how much more it takes to care for these tiny ones. People are falling in love with the "idea" of a tiny baby... they are infatuated with having a "purse puppy", yet know nothing of how to properly care for them... and the little ones suffer... I prefer my girl to be 2 lbs or under.... am not looking for a young puppy, but rather prefer her to be between the ages of 8 months and 2 years. Coloration, coat texture, or even whether she is sickly or well - has no impact on consideration. I am willing to take in a little one with special needs or medical concerns as easily as I would a healthy young lady. I have no preference and am well prepared to accept either reality. You may find much information on myself and my experience with a tiny one simply by doing a YT search for "Natalie" and scanning my posts. As well, I am happy to provide any information you may require in order to find me as a suitable mom for your little one. Please contact me, either by posting here or via PM with any information regarding a little girl you feel may find her way into my heart and family!

| Hi. You may want to try www.petfinder.com. Since you are looking for a an older pup this may work out for you, especially if you'd consider maybe a 2 yr. old. I've seen quite a few little ones on Petfinder where the rescues were looking for experienced Yorkie owners. I'm not sure about 2 lbs. Wow that's tiny. My lilly is full grown at 3 lbs. and let me tell you she's tiny and by the way she was a rescue. We got her at 13 weeks. The rescue had over 100 applications on her but wanted her in a home that was Yorkie experienced. Best of luck to you. Elaine |

"We adopt to homes in NJ, PA, MD, DE and some areas of NY, VA, CT. We receive hundreds of applications and adopt to less than 3% of those we receive. We hope that you are in the top 5% but if you are not, there are millions of dogs in shelters across the country who need you. Visit your local shelter today!" One, I am not in their adoption areas.... and two, at almost 3 lbs at 4 months old, she'll likely grow to be 5 - 7 lbs, I'd guess. I also saw little Ricky, who is beautiful.... but ... (other than he is a boy) I have both children AND large dogs.... so no chance with that rescue either... As well, while I certainly am willing to take on a special needs baby, I don't think I could venture into a 900.00 adoption fee for a little guy with Legg-Perthes in both hind hip joints who could need further surgeries and rehab. (I hope that doesn't sound horrible!)

| Thanks everyone.... I'm sure she's out there somewhere! I also wanted to note that registration, or lack of, also has no bearing on my decision...

I am willing to take in a little one with special needs or medical concerns as easily as I would a healthy young lady. I have no preference and am well prepared to accept either reality. There is a little girl, I had bought and had to return because she was very sick......she had worms(alot of them) and God only knows what else though........this was in Dec. and I haven't talked to the lady anymore........She was tiny and sick The last time I talked to the lady she said that she didn't know if she was going to be selling her because she had a bad case of her sugar dropping, I think she has anemia because of the worms. Your baby Natalie was adorable.............I hope you find a beautiful tiny girl \ Anyways this is her picture This really broke my heart

I remember this.... and felt SO bad for your heart.... she did indeed look like a weak little one and I remember wishing I could bring her home even then! If you talk to her breeder and she still has her, feel free to have her contact me at: mom2babynatalie@aol.com She certainly needs someone to give her some extra care!
