we too, ended up with the empty nest...we also had a boston terrior for sixteen years and had to put her to sleep. so.......my husband thought I was totally out of my mind, we do streetrod shows for a good part of the year. I started researching the yorkie mostly cause of shedding (they do not shed) and because of size which I don't think my boy will get any bigger then 5 1/2 pounds. He is great, his name is Axle, check out my site and pitures of him...he is so lovable, loves to play, loves his baths, has learned how to sit, fetch toys and bring back and drop them and has learned to shake paw already....he is a good eater he is almost 4 months old and 3.8 pounds. he is going for his first pre groom appt. sat. we take him in his bag everywhere we go, we even go to sonic now alot before we go places just so we can take him. He even has a dog stoller. we both work full time I work at a school so i leave at 6:30 and don't get back till 3:30, he has been fine he is being pee pee pad trained, I didn't want to have to take him out (my other dog i could open the door and she would go) can't do that with these little guys. he is 90% trained already, he sleeps in a crate at nite goes to bed about 9pm and wakes at 5 am when he hears us make coffee holds it all nite long. I hope I have been some help. good luck |
