I've always had male dogs. The last one was a male Yorkie that I had for 13 years. Last spring after Chipper passed on I thought I would never want another dog. I cried for weeks and every thing reminded me of Chipper. Finally I realized that I would never move on until I got a new baby. I found a breeder that I really liked and trusted and gave her a deposit for a male puppy with a female that was due to deliver in a couple weeks. There were 3 puppies in that litter and they were all females. Even though she had a lot of people interested in females I was the only person that gave her a deposit so she wanted to know if I wanted a female. I never really thought about having a little girl but I did know that I wanted a puppy from that litter. That's how my baby girl came into my life. She is sweet, smart and the most affectionate dog I have ever owned. She has never growled, shown teeth or tried to bite. My males always tested me in the begining until they realized who was in charge. I have to admit females are a lot harder to house break then males. My boys were house trained by 4 months while Piper is 10 months and will still have an accident once in a while. We go weeks with no accidents but she never asks to go out so it is up to me to make sure she has potty breaks. The boys would just go to the door and ask to go out.
