 We're New
Hi Everyone!!! I just joined this site today and I hope to learn a lot as well as contribute. I rescued a wonderful little lady named Pixie last September. She is seven years old and has delivered six litters of puppies. Yeah, she was rescued from a dreaded puppy mill. She only has two teeth and has cataracts in both eyes. She spent her life in a small cage so small that she couldn't stand up so the cartilage in her ears was broken therefore her ears don't stand up like her other Yorkies. She is the sweetest animal I've ever known despite what all she's been through. I forgot to mention she had been in four foster homes before I rescued her. She doesn't trust anyone but me as of yet. We're working on it though. I have a 3 year old Westie named Jasmine who helped us welcome her into our home. Jazzy is the pack leader but that's fine with Miss Pixie. They are a lot alike and I just love Terriers. The girls share my love with my grand dog, Motorhead. Motorhead is my son's St. Bernard who is a big (143 pound) baby. He is just over a year old. On weekends my other son brings his furry friends over. He's the dad to a Weimaraner, Bailey and two Siberian Huskie, Jake and Jessie. So you can image what fun we all have. I just wanted to check in with everyone and introduce myself. Actually, I do have a question. I'm wondering how you members have your Yorkie groomed. Do you keep their coat long or cut it short? Pixie's is getting really long and unruly. I brush her constantly. Her bangs are in her eyes and a bow doesn't last long. She rolls around until she loses it. My Westie has a Westie cut which is quiet different from a Yorkie look. Thanks in advance for your input. |
