I wanted a Yorkie as my 35th birthday gift so my hubby, who calls me his spoiled brat, agreed we could get one. Maxx was intended to be my b-day present but when he never made it home, we found Piper. He came home 11 days after I turned 35. Loving every minute of him...except the once daily need to potty on the floor, the chewing of my coffee table...etc.
