I was looking for a companion that was not going to worsen my allergies and was small and I came across the yorkshire terrier and it wasnt because there ears stick up or there hair is soft and flowing or because you can get some that are so tiny. I am not rich I live with my grandparents because of health reasons and at this time am unable to have a real job but my family came together to buy me Callie and she has changed my life I am able to drive the 30 miles between my home and my moms and I am able to go through drive threws with Callie next to me I have had a reason to get up in the morning and to live. She is so spoiled and not needing of anything I do sell some stuff on ebay and make some money, she has a stroller, a carseat, lots of toys and clothes and more love then I ever thought I could give (and thats a lot because I love everyone and everything sooo much) being rich means nothing some of the poorest people love there pets more then anyone. There are so many people out there who are rich and buy small dogs as fashion accesorries and they are not they are living things. I'm just so sad by some people my gosh money means nothing compaired to what Callie has given me.
Taylor, please don't ever let anyone make you feel that your Callie is inferior in any way. When we bought our Toto, yes, we could've paid many times over what we paid for her. We wanted more than anything to have a healthy baby .... one that wouldn't break my heart by leaving us too early. Yes, she is purebred, yes, she has an impressive pedigree and yes, her breeder is a very successful show breeder. None of those things have anything to do with the fact that my Patrick and I love her more than our own lives. We would do anything for her and would sacrifice anything that we own for her! She could have grown the size of a Saint Bernard and had floppy ears to the floor and we wouldn't care ... more to love! From the moment we held her, she has had us under her spell. She has gotten me through so many things these few years [almost 5] that she has been in our lives. When my Mother died in 2006 [on Toto's 3rd birthday] I couldn't have gone on had it not been for Toto. She held me together as she has all the crisis in our lives since she has been with us. It was her ... her little spirit ... her loving, funny little personality, that makes us get up every morning and brings so much joy to our day, every day!! It had nothing to do with her pedigree, her size, her cost, etc. It was that sweet little spoiled personality and we made that!! It had nothing to do with what we could provide for her or any advantage that she had ... it was simply the time, attention and love that we chose to invest in her. We made a committment to her and we are living up to that ever single day!! That's exactly what you are doing for your Callie! It costs absolutely nothing for us to love these fantastic little creatures and to give them all the time and attention that we possibly can ... that's what makes a quality Yorkie!! Sounds like your Callie fits that description to a tee!!
