Hi everyone, I'm new here. My name is Jason, me and my family have a 9 year old Yorkie named Nikki (as pictured). He was born on March 10, 2000, we still have the camcorder video of him the week we brought him home. He's been the only one as he doesn't take well to other babies in the house, he gets jealous. For the first few years of his life my parents would take him to the sonic and prop him up on a pillow between them and finger feed him cheeseburgers and bring back outback steak for his birthday and he was so used to getting whole chickens and sliced ham and turkey for breakfast that one morning his tummy was rock hard and he was grunting and hurting so we took him to the vet and we were told he had pancreitis because the meat had too high a fat content for such a small dog, he's just under ten pounds. So he got so mad at us! We couldn't give him anymore meat so we put him on hill's science I/D diet and now his stomach and pancreas are back to normal. We've had a couple of other snags along the way but we have always made sure he had his heartworm pills and frontline plus and all the necessities a small dog would need. We've always made sure he had healthy teeth and kept his claws trimmed back, etc.
He's so smart and I couldn't imagine being without him, he's more like my brother than a pet. Every Christmas we include him like he's one of the kids, we just give him a corner and he starts tearing presents open and playing
I love that boy, he's been the best dog I've had in the nearly thirty years of being on this earth. Anyways, just saying hi. Tell me about your babies and their personalities?
Jason
