Hi ya'll - I haven't been around for a while, but I figured it was past time to give a quick update for all our Yorkie friends.
My daughter, Pixie, Bogey, and I have moved, but we are doing well. I graduated from law school last December, and I'm sitting for the Texas bar exam in 3 weeks (which is why I haven't been around - I've been busy studying).
Bogey is doing well - very well. He's happy, but he doesn't know yet that he gets to be fixed next month. He absolutely LOVES wearing clothes - he goes nuts when he sees us pick up "dog" clothing... especially the pretty dresses. We tease him about being a cross-dresser. He then has to run out in the front yard and show his clothes off to the world. He's a pretty-boy, but he's doing GREAT!
Pixie is doing really well other than her ongoing collapsing trachea issue. She's fully recovered from all the surgeries she had (a long time ago) on her luxating patellas and she's long re-learned to walk and regained her strength from those. Her legs are no longer issues for her at all other than periodic arthritis and such. She's also gained a lot of weight - she's over 6 lbs now! That's incredible for my little 4.5 lb sickly yorkie
She is on prednisone for her collapsing trachea and she takes torbutrol, too. She's been having some issues, but she has a new vet who seems to be taking excellent care of her.
I'm attaching some pictures from Christmas since we've not been around to share them before now.
