OK - my first Yorkie was in 1977 and JT lived for 8 long and happy years (he died early in life due to a medical condition); then Sruffy I got in 1978 and he lived 14 years. Then I was broken hearted and couldn't deal with getting another Yorkie so that's when the cats came into my life....then work; travel, etc., but I don't know what happened but all of a sudden I got the itch for a dog....I was not even THINKING of getting another Yorkie - I would cry every time I would see one. I was going to get a Jack Russell but then a friend of mine who breeds and shows sent me this video clip of Izzy on a Wednesday and that Sunday went down to Columbus to get her...the rest is history....so that's our story in a nutshell.
