So I found a set of 12 week old purebred Yorkies right near my work and called and talked with the woman and now we are the proud owners of 2 beautiful Yorkies! We both have had dogs in our lives since we have been young, so when I found these 2 I knew she was be so excited. I am sooo glad I found these 2 and I am already in love with these 2 pooches.

These 2 are the cutest dogs ever, from the 1st time they met us they will not leave our sides. We named them Izzy and Lacey. I hope to learn a lot from this site and already have since I wanted to see what we were getting ourselves into by buying these dogs. So these are our first and will not be the last. I will try to post some pictures of these 2 later when the wake up from there nap.

Currently we are feeding them Iams small dog & toy puppy food, is this a good choice? The women that we bought them from said that her male Yorkie loves it and is one of the best to feed them.

We also picked up some doggie treats for training and a few toys so they had something to play with. We had a few accidents so far but by reading the sticky about training for new owners we should expect this. We also got the puppy pads and they don't seem to work, but I guess we will keep trying them. Is there a good place to put them? Right now we live in a 2 bedroom condo and have the pups food and bed in the bathroom along with the kennel and the puppy pads. Should we move them? I would like to put the food by the cats food but they seem to eat the cats food so I am trying to keep them away from that.

Also is there a good way to get our cats use to them? Our male cat who is 2 years old is ok when them so far (only had them for 1 day) but our female cat who is barely one does not care for them at all, they try to be friendly but she just hisses at them.

Iams is not that great at all, but you can ck here on health and food nutrition section for ideas> I have two senior cats, it takes time so be patient be careful with the nails of the cats and the yorkies eyes. They like cat foot because is usually high on protein I will put your cats in a schedule and feed them when you are there. I have three yorkie girls and all potty train it takes time I only use one place with the pads (hard floor).I'm sure that someone else will help you more in here
