I have a 9lb yorkie who I love to pieces, he is my heart and soul. I also have a less than 3 lb little girl who I adore as well. I do take them everywhere with me. Both of them.
I did not buy Mignon based on size, I bought her because I fell in love with that face. I have never had a desire to own a tiny, I knew what the consequences were. I worry about her ALL THE TIME.
She is not allowed free range of the house at 1 yr old, probably never will be.She stays in her ex pen if I am not home. I have to take her even when I don't want to because I worry about her being in her expen too long.
She has never had a hypoglycemic attack but even at a yr I worry she might.
When she jumps up and down off the couch I worry she might break something.I worry about having too many people in my house at Christmas and her getting stepped on. I even worry about stepping on her myself! Lets not even go to the spaying and anesthesia issues. I could go on and on and on....
I LOVE my little one, I have her for all the RIGHT reasons, and I am an extremly conscientious mommy but would I get another one? NO WAY!! I have enough gray hair with this one.I won't even leave her(or the 9 lber) with my family members, I hope I never have to, (that means that Tahitian vacation I always wanted is out of the question).
So for all of those who want one for the novelty of having a tiny I hope they understand ALL the consequences. |
