Should Kobi get a brother??? So I've been thinking lately that Kobi would really love to have a playmate, and heck, I'd like to have another yorkie running around. I love him to bits, and spoil him to death so why not?? However, I was thinking about getting another one maybe around when Kobi is one (Dec.) because summer is always crazy, etc....
Well, silly me looked at the classifieds today of the paper, and there's a 1 1/2 y/o yorkie for sale for $500. I kinda thought that was too much to rehome a yorkie, but maybe I'm totally wrong. So I e-mailed the owner and he sent me back a very nice e-mail, and then I called him and he seemed like a very nice person. He is getting transfered in the military overseas, and that is why they can't keep the dog. He said the dog has been an outside dog (???) mostly so isn't great with potty training, etc, and he doesn't know how he'll do even with other dogs.
So, needless to say, I want this little bugger, but I'm just not sure.... Like I said, summer is VERY busy for me. (I'll be flying home 3 times this summer w/Kobi), and I just don't know if it's right. But he sent a pic, and he is a little cutie. So I'm attaching the pic and I guess I'm just looking for any advice and what questions I should ask of this family, etc, etc, etc. Never done this before (obviously) and I want to do it right the first time. Thank you in advance so, so, so much for any and ALL advice. Please tell me if you think it's a bad idea or anything...I only want the truth. Thanks, y'all!!!
