It's hard not to compare, but I believe it would be a very serious mistake and very wrong, too. The reason I say that is that you will see good things in each little yorkie, because as I said, just like our children they are all different and have different personalities. You will see (and probably feel guilty for it) good things in your new yorkie that you wish your old yorkie had done. Likewise, you will see the wonderful things in your old yorkie that you wish your new yorkie would do. As with children, you can't allow yourself to compare. It isn't fair to them.
