well,, I waited like 30 yrs to get my first Yorkie (had to get kids all grown) lol,, and i had a name all picked out,, which flew straight out the window when i got to meet my "Cricket",, i'd talked with the breeder for several years,, til i finally decided i was ready,, then waited on the specific breeding pair to hit on what i wanted,, so i waited for all those years,, then waited thru the breeding and pregancy,,then when the pups were born,, i had pneumonia and couldnt go visit em to pick mine out of the litter,, but the breeder KNEW what i wanted,, so she picked out the 2 little girls for me to choose from,,,and when i finally got well enough to go visit,, i did,, and spent several hours,, visiting,, talking,, and watching,, until finally my sister in law who had gone with me,, asked if i were just taking them both, lol, NOPE!! I'm taking THIS one,, and the breeder was so excited,, saying she just KNEW I would, ,lol,, and I scooped her up,, we looked in each others eyes,, and she "told me" her name was Cricket!!! ;-) so,, that was it,, she looked like a Cricket to me!! and about the size of one!! i finally got to bring her home at 12 weeks when she reached 16 oz! and me being from Louisiana, named her(registered name) Mon Petit Cricket de Bayou,, meaning My Little Bayou Cricket!,,,,and our second Yorkie (hubby had to have his own ,,dontchaknow?) lol,, I wanted to name her Chloe,, but her moms name was Chloe and hubby didnt like it,, so i said how about Dixie,, nope,, he didnt like that,, i told him some of the names in her background,, her daddy is Roscoe so he quickly said ,,ok then,, she is Daisy!,, Daisy Duke of Logansport is her registered name,,,then comes Trixie,, who came to us from our great breeder (now friend),, who GAVE us Trixie in "replacement" for Daisy,, who we bought to breed later on,,who turned out to have Demodectic Mange,, which is only transfered mother to nursing pup,,and the breeder had NO idea her mom had a problem,, but thats all taken care of now,, pulled from her breeding program even though she appears perfectly healhty,, etc..but Trixie came to us as a replacement (but we KEEP Daisy,, shes hubbys baby) and have her under treatment and she is doing great,, and is now spayed,,but anyway,, lol, ,Trixie just "told" me her name too,, on our ride home from the breeder,, as she is just full of Trix(tricks) ,, as she tossed her cookies on my SHOULDER 3 times on our drive home,, and her ears will not stand up but her coat is perfection!,, and my kids loved The Flopsie Bunnys (book) and she reminded me of it,, so,, her registered name is Tale of Beatrix Potter,, Trixie is her given name!! sooooooooooooooo,, anyone still here? LOL, i can tend to run on, at any given time, lol, ya'll have a great day!
