HELLO TO ALL YOU YORKIE MAD PEOPLE !!! You cannot be as mad as me !
I wanted a Yorkie since I was 12, and I finally got my first treasured "baby" when I was 33, 6 and a half years ago.
Tara was 6 weeks when I took her home, and will be 7 yrs old this June. I call her "the Queen" because as far as she is concerned she
IS the queen ! She is so gorgeous that EVERYONE stops us to say hello to her, and she EXPECTS everyone to speak to her ! She loves to wave obsessively at you and you have to take her paw ! It's like ET's finger !
I then got a wee boyfriend for her who needed a new home when he was 19 months. He will be 5yrs this year in October. He was already called Casper, and it seemed cruel to change his name when he had a new home to get used to, but we often call him Mannie as well ! He is a skinny wee boy and a complete sap ! He smiles all the time....nice smiles too !
Last October I succumed again.....I just had to have another wee girl ! I found a wee girl already called Tammy and made my husband drive 200 miles after coming home from a night-shift to go and get her ! She is three years, and will be 4 in July this year. The poor wee thing was in a terrible state when I got her....mange and a yeast infection which had never been treated. Her owner sold her to us in his garden - we never got taken into his house at all, and he said he wouldn't miss her ??? She had never been to a vet(he said he doesn't beleive in vets !) and she wasn't toilet trained ! She stank the most unbelievable smell, and was greasy all over and had tattered ears. Her underside skin was totally black and the rest red raw with sores. Anyway a few months later, this all top champion bred dog is in fantastic condition after vet treatment and lots of love, bathing and good feeding. Such a well bred dog in that state was shocking. Her hair is growing in and she has a shine in her coat. She smiles nicely too and goes all flat on the floor as if she is going to be kicked or get a row if you speak to her....it looks cute, but it makes me wonder why she is always doing this ! Is she just shy or has she been kicked ??? She is lovely natured like my other two.
Tammy (the wee tart) has just thoroughly enjoyed the attentions of Casper, who is in mega love, so maybe babies on the way !
I will want to keep them too, no doubt !
All my dogs are 4lbs in weight, so "small".
The first pic is Tara the Queen, the second is Casper Mannie, and the third and fourth are Tammy or Tammykins as I call her ! She is waving to you in one of her pics !
Hope you like the pics of my three treasured babies....
