Welcome to Yorkie Talk!! I am from northern Virginia also. Actually in the Woodbridge,Dale City, Manassas area!! Are you close to here? Would love to get together with other yorkie owners. I just got my first little yorkie in June. She was born April 12, her name is Dixie. She is beautiful, I am over the moon in love with her and having such a good time with her and the yorkie, little male named Teddy who is two weeks younger and from a different litter that my twin 19 yr. old daughters purchased from the same breeder. They are quite a pair, such great friends. Again welcome to good advice and good friends.
