She can learn about your dog, and you can teach her all of the things she DOESN'T see that Britney and Paris do for their dogs (or have other people do for them!)
You could also let her know that she is welcome to come and see your dog any time she wants to spend time with a yorkie. Maybe let her take it out with her friends somewhere or have them over to your house too, if she can be trusted to do so. Maybe the novelty of the yorkie will wear off once she knows how much work it really is. |
That is a good idea..but they live about 3 hours from us.
one of her other aunties breeds King Charles Spaniels..i thought she would be getting one of those as she will probably get it for free..i might encourage her to get one of them instead..although i will pity any dog having to live in that house. i'll try my best to talk to her..although i fear my advice will fall on deaf ears..
