I have two Yorkies, one pit, one poodle and two boxers and to tell you the truth they are all a big big part of my life. The thing that amazes me is my husband and Gwen our tinest yorkie. I've never seen someone as attached to a furbaby as he is to her. He didn't even like little dogs when I first got her. Now there is nothing he wouldn't do for her. If she has an accident it's ok cause it's Gwen, if she sleeps inside his armpit all night (which she does) it's ok cause it's Gwen. He only allows certain people in our own family to pick her up or pet her. If she accidentally nips him when trying to defend the household against some noise she hears it's ok cause it's Gwen. She like the others have each brought their own type of joy into the house, but ask my husband and Gwen is numero uno and always will be.
