Also, your boyfriend is an important person in your life. You don't want to hurt a relationship over a new dog in addition to the ones you already have and need to take care of.
Although it is not necessary to get the other two yorkies, think about who is going to help you out instead of adding to your liabilities...Your boyfriend is already very understanding about you getting two adult yorkies. You need to realize that an unexpected fifth, and one that you can hardly support and pay for, is going to really put you under. Had you not gone to see the poor puppy, you would still have $700 in you pocket so that YOU can get by.
Although I completely applaud you for rescuing the little guy, you also have to think about yourself and if you'll have enough for your business, employees, family, and holidays.
In the end, it's your decision. But I wish you luck and lots of love!!! |
Thanks... I know where you're getting at. It's just hard, when you see something like that. I am totally against BYB. This guy bought this pup to breed to begin with, but he said that he got too big. I was thinking about giving him to my aunt that have considered buying a yorkie. Thanks for your input though.
