This is gonna be super long - so Please bear with me.
I had wanted to get a Yorkie for a few years But decided to wait because I had a sickly 11 yr old Pom at home & didn't want to bring a lively puppy home to aggrevate her.
BUT I had been stopping at the Pet store every time I would see Yorkies on the sign & they were always sold & gone when I got there. this went on for about 6 months.

My Pom Rakki had hip surgery on her 1st birthday & by the time she was 10 yrs old she couldn't walk at all, she also had bulging disk in her neck. Well she started to get sick, skinny, stopped eating & diareah. I fought alot with the idea to put her to sleep, I said i could never do that. But finally one day, I couldn't watch her suffer & called my good friend at the Vet. She helped me with my struggles to put her to sleep. You have to remember this is my best lil friend ever, always at my side no matter what I was doing. It broke my heart to do this. I still cry about this decision I made.

Well - on Saturday morning we put my baby to sleep, buired her in the back yard with my other Pom who lived to 18 yrs old.
That same day at 5:30 pm I called the pet store just for the hell of it & was told we have a lil boy yorkie - I wanted a girl - But he said he is the cutest Yorkie we have ever had.
Sunday I decided to go to see him when they opened at 1 pm.
He was not there - I freaked out - the owner said they must have sold him the night before.
So He called the breeder & was told she had took him home last night & was on the way back to the store with him.
She came in, I saw him & fell in love. She asked if I wanted to hold him & I said no, if I hold him I won't give him back & I really want a girl!
I couldn't resist & grabbed him out of her hands.

He is so special to me - He helped me through the hardest time in my life - having to put my lil Rakki to sleep.
Well I have 4 Yorkies now & I love every one of them equally BUT Scruffy is so special to me!!!
Here is a pic of Scruffy at 6 1/2 wks old & a pic now at 2 1/2 yrs old
