I used to be very active on YT, and of course, like everyone else here totally love it, and adore all of the wonderful people that make YT what it is. YT has grown since I was an addicted, obsessive YTer, so many of you may no clue who I am or my stories, but many will. Anyways, to get to the meat of this story...
Thor is my little bear. I got him in 2005 for my birthday, and it was love at first sight. After I graduated university, I packed my boy up and we moved to Canada to be with the other love of my life. We drove across America, the three of us, and it was so fun, and he was SO good! When we got to Canada Thor was very unhappy. We tried many different methods to calm him, make him more comfortable and happy here. Nothing worked so I had to make a very, very hard decision. Me, my boyfriend, mom, and dad talked about having Thor go back to NC where he was used to his big sister (lab) and new brother (yorkie). So off he went. Yes, in an airplane, and I cried when I had to put him in that crate, and they made me leave him crying, sad and scared.
He arrived in NC in great spirits and was very glad to see his grandma. He also loves his daily walks with grandpa which are about an hour long. On the weekends they go to the forest for romps in the woods and along the river. During they day the 'dog pound' (as we call the bunch) hangs out together and guard the house.
It has been so hard. I've been so sad about it, and miss him all the time. He was my constant little companion, and my buddy with me in a brand new place where I knew nobody.
I know he is happy, and being taken care of like the little prince he is...although I'm sure he is enjoy his less frequent baths
.
I was hesitant to tell everyone about this because I didn't want any negative responses, but now that my heart has had time to deal with this, and I know I did the right thing, I'm okay to talk about it...Even though I feel so horrible about it and still cry over it a year later.
One day, I will be adding a yorkie to my life again.
So since Thor has not been directly in my life, I have slowly pulled myself away from YT so that it doesn't hurt, and also because I haven't need yorkie support. Boy what would have I done without YT when I got Thor? I love this place and all the great people and hope everyone is doing well!
Here is a picture of my mom with Thor and Harry in NC! I love this pic!
