A bit nervous - YorkieTalk.com Forums

wnturner · 01-23-2007, 02:28 PM

This is my 1st gift exchange and I want my buddy to be happy. I was so excited before I got my buddy now I just hope I can live up to my buddy's expectations. I'm crazy nervous

BacisMom · 01-23-2007, 02:29 PM

We are right there with you. This is our first as well, but everyone here is so nice they won't care what they get!! We all love our babies... and it shows.

marcerella02 · 01-23-2007, 02:32 PM

i am REALLY nervous too... i got some stuff today.. i hope he likes it.. i hope it is enough.. some people go WAY out... but this if just my first one so i hope it goes ok!!!!! glad i am not the only one who is new and nervous!

wnturner · 01-23-2007, 02:34 PM

I know but I looked at what my buddy got last year

and no it's not a competition we just want our buddy to be happy and enjoy their gift. A week ago I was just going crazyy when I went through the store and now I'm questioning everything

From one extreme to the other. Well I'm sure I'll find some good items at the pet expo this weekend.

I know I have enjoyed everything I have gotten -- well, er, Mojo has enjoyed everything. Really, you shouldn't worry about it - just shop and have fun! I have worried about some in the past too, but it all always ended up okay...everyone enjoys getting gifts in the mail. So, just have fun w/ it - that is what it is all about!

fasteddie · 01-23-2007, 02:40 PM

Don't worry! I'm sure your Secret Buddy will enjoy everything! Yorkies are pretty easy to please, and every single Secret Buddy I've had has been really happy and appreciative of the gifts.

As have I, of course! We've gotten some really neat things over the past two years that we've had Gift Exchanges here! Stuff that I definitely wouldn't have gotten otherwise!

Grayson's mom · 01-23-2007, 06:21 PM

Don't be nervous and have fun! I love the gift exchange this is my second one I was a bit nervous too last time, but i had had so much fun, giving is one of the best parts!

I Love Bailey · 01-23-2007, 06:48 PM

This is our first one also and you do worry about if they are going to like what you buy, but I figured Bailey is a great tester and if she likes it, it will be fine.

We are just about done, I want to try and get package out by Sat.

Tink's Mom · 01-23-2007, 06:48 PM

Me too - This is my first GE too. I'm worried that I'll get the wrong thing. I already took back the treats I got because Tink likes them but my buddy's mom listed a different kind. So I'm gonna try to find them.

For some strange reason, we don't have any dog boutiques in Madison, so I have to rely on the pet stores and my imagination.

I'm sure it will turn out well, 'cause as everyone has said, it's the fun of it and all of our babies will be happy with whatever they get.

In my last exchange I got some great treats that I had never tried, maybe you don't have to return them! You just may turn that fur baby onto something new!!

Tiggerwit · 01-23-2007, 07:43 PM

don't sweat it. Have you ever seen anyone say look at the stupid crap that I got?

LOL You will do fine, most of it is just the excitement of it all. I know Alphy's not picky at all.

baileysmom31 · 01-23-2007, 08:36 PM

Don't worry. if its too big, it can be taken in, if its too small it can be passed on, it it isn't a treat they like, someone else will like it. Remember a gift is a gift, lets rejoice that someone thinks that much of us to go through the trouble of putting the package together

No need to worry about a thing!! No matter what you buy it would be special because it will show your buddy that you took your time to pick out stuff just for them and that you sent it with alot of love!! I can't wait to get ours all done.....
