I think they could be an obsession. I have always wanted a yorkie since I was 8 years old. I used to draw pictures of them and I had a trapper keeper with one on it when I was in middle school. (A little secret: When I worked as a cake decorator I used to take two cupcakes and use a star tip with icing make make little yorkies out of cupcakes. They were cute and big sellers! If u want me to describe how to make them I can.)
But, my family liked malteses. I grew up with a few of those and one chi named Sugar. Then over a year ago we rescued our dachshund. So here I am, finally, at 29, having my own yorkie!!
And she is just as cute and perfect as I have always imagined.
