[alaskayorkie]

I take no credit for choosing a Yorkie. My wife researched small breeds and settled on a Yorkie because they're cute. I just fell in love with him. I originally thought it was because he was tiny and I had an instinct to protect. But we had a 3-pound chihuahua that I didn't get along with at all. I think it's the Yorkie spirit. They're big dogs in a little dog's skin. Eddie wants to play all the time. And when he looks at me with those big, dark eyes, I just can't say no.
