Guilty!
I have asked lots of questions about my Ollie who is now almost 8 months and 12.6 lbs. It is only because i am CURIOUS and feel this site has so many knowledgable owners. I knew not a thing about yorkies when he was given to me. I didnt understand a lot but now i do thanks to this site. I didnt know there was a possibilty he would grow so large or that there were silky or cotton coats or the color changes. When i first started reading this site i was AWED! So of course new owners are going to question the experienced owners. I was so excited to post pics and get comments and learn as much as i could. This does not mean that anything anyone could possible say could effect the love i have for Ollie. I only want to learn about him.
I felt the same way when i looked at my newborn skin babies with wondering if their eyes would stay blue or there hair would stay dark----curious. Then i read and tried to become knowledgable just like i am with my new furbaby.
I take Ollie everywhere and i am constantly told there is no way that he is a yorkie. But i know that he is because he has THAT yorkie personality i read about over and over on YT!!!! I only wish i would of discovered this breed years ago!
I think the majority of people look at the standard books when deciding on a breed of dog. They look for what they personally find cute and then read about temperment and decide if that breed will fit their lifestyle and that is THE homework. I am 44 years old and if i would not of discovered this site i would not of known what homework to do when and if i ever get my yorkie girl.
BTW size does not matter to our family. |
