I was always afraid to get a second yorkie because I was not sure I could love two as much as I love Gizmo. I was wrong. I have worked in a veterinarian's office for 11 years - 4 of which I have been the manager. I have learned lots about breeding, puppies, etc. So - I did my homework, searched for a breeder and found Barkley. The reason I am posting in this thread is because Barkley's father is Lancelot. When I walked into the breeder's house Lancelot was the first to greet me and I told her "that is what I want". I only hope Barkley grows up to be half as handsome. Here is a picture I took of him in the snow we had a few weeks ago. He has been such a joy so far, Gizmo has accepted him with open paws, and we love him to death. They both go to work with me every day and are gated in my office. I am hooked.

Wow, Barkley is gorgeous.
