Hello everyone,
Monday night it was raining really hard and I just didn't want to go home right away so I thought I'd stop at Pet Store and get some puppy kisses. (My therapy!) They had a female Yorkie and I was so excited. I asked if I could see her and they let me sit with her for as long as I'd like. She was a ball of energy. She was running around and just bouncing off the walls. Everything about her was so different from my MM and yet she had that same great personality - full of excitement and everything was an adventure. I was delighted to play with her and then she took a tumble. She started yelping so hard I panicked. I scooped her up and held her and one of the store staff came running over. Another customer who had been watching explained that they thought she was just scared. The store clerk said my face was white as a ghost and it was okay. I got tears in my eyes and she had to calm me down! She checked her out and said she was fine but I felt sick to my stomach. I was so embarrassed. I was more scared than the little pup. The girl laughed and said she was a little drama queen. She said she would start crying in her cage at the top of her lungs if she didn't get attention some times. As soon as someone came up to her she stopped. I asked if she was sure the pup was okay and they said she really was. I was so upset about it that before I left I gave them my name and number in case something was wrong. They kept telling me she was fine. The girl put the pup back in my arms and told me to hold her. I was shaking a little. The pup whimpered a little and then started to dooze. I handed her back and left. About an hour after I got home the girl called me to reassure me the pup was fine and wouldn't I love to have one. (Clever!) I thanked her but said it was just too soon. I said I'm sure someone would buy her very soon because she was so cute. Is that yelping normal for pups? I don't ever remember Mouse doing that.
