 So sorry for you
I know you will get lots of opinions about your original question, so I won't elaborate much on that, remember that there is a risk of disease with any breed of dog. Good point made that you will hear more about the illness here than the healthy dogs. Overall they are a wonderful breed, and you already know you love them, so why not choose a Yorkie again?
What I really want to say is how sorry I am that you are going thru this with your dog. It is devastating to think of possibly losing her especially so young, and I feel your concern over your daughter. My mini Schnauzer died suddenly in April, and I was so worried because my 4 yr. old granddaughter who spends a lot of time here was so close to her. I was surprised to find out that young children accept loss of a pet much better that we adults. I got a Yorkie a month later, and then a Morkie 3 months after that, and we all ADORE them.
My thoughts and prayer are with you. |
