My name is Scott and I just got our Yorkie for my wife for her birthday on 9/1/08.
We named our little guy Pippin after the Pippin/Peregrin Took character in The Lord Of The Rings
as he's always getting into trouble just like the character does!
We almost named him Clydesdale (hence the screen name) because that's how big he acts!
This little guy isn't afraid of anything!
We got him as a rescue because he has a bad eye. It's slightly smaller than it should be which causes
some issues with it. He has cataracts in that eye and it was pretty bloodshot for a while.
Our vet diagnosed that Pip has clamidia in that eye and has prescribed some antibiotics in gel form that
we have to put into his eye. The antibiotics seem to be clearing up the blood considerably in his eye.
He's pretty much blind in that eye, but we're hoping that he can at least keep the eye.
As of right now, the eye doesn't seem to bother him at all, so we're pretty hopeful in that respect.
Pippin is a young pup of only three to four months old and has a wonderful personality.
Hope to check in here from time to time and learn all that we can for our little guy!
Take care,
Scott
