Its quite funny if you think about it, the area I live in is one of the areas where Yorkies were kept last century by miners for ratting, yet you people over in the US are advising me on grooming! Thats the joy of the net!
When I was a little girl, growing up in the 60s my grandma's neighbour bred Yorkies and they were very popular round here. He kept 3 yorkies, 2 bitches and a dog, and had a special room fitted out in the garden for the pups. I used to wear white cotton ankle socks and whenever I appeared at the end of the passageway which led to the backyards at my grandma's the male Yorkie, Tuggy, would charge at my ankle socks and pull and growl. I was never frightened, I just used to laugh, but it used to make my mum quite cross because the socks lost their shape! (no lycra in those days). I used to love to see the man who bred them put their top knots up in tissue paper and a rubber band. I always wanted one of the pups when I saw them but my dad wouldnt let me have one as both my parents worked. |
Lol, that is funny, I guess the miners weren't too into grooming! I wonder why he went after the white socks, black socks I could understand, is this also where white rats came from?
