My first Yorkie-girl was Bella whom as much as I hate to admit it...a Pet Store Pooch....I know, I know, that was before becoming educated on the ways of the world & where these lil' darlings really come from.
Then, came Abby...my "first" Rescue Adoption thru YTNR...which was a wonderful experience that led me to become a Foster Mom, too. Abby's story was that her previous pet owner, a college student wanted a T-Cup to tote around in her lil' Doggy Purse. However, when Abby grew into her 8-9 lb frame...her owner grew tired of her and she came to live with me who loves every square inch of her loveliness!
Last, came Phoebe...my "second" Rescue Adoption thru YTNR! Her story was that she was surrendered by a Backyard Breeder who could no longer see a $$$ profit in her after two Casarean's births. She was a whole different ball of wax from Abby. At least Abby got some socialization whereas Phoebe was not so, she has been a lot more work to get her to trust & be social...but, she is getting there...slowly but, surely. I'm blessed that she thinks that I'm her Momma and believe me, she's never two steps away from my ankles and when I've been away she's always full of kisses for me upon my return!
Here are some pic's of my girlies for your enjoyment! Bella is my T-pot, Abby is almost all Silver & Cream & Phoebe is my lil' Darkie. The last pic includes my last (foster) YTNR-Rescue, Sammie (aka Rascal) who was just adopted a few weeks ago to live in his furever home with his new Momma, Sandy!
