When I went to see Cali, I had not had a yorkie in 8 years. My husband and dtr wanted a pom. I had recently been forced to take early retirement so I decided it was time for a yorkie again. My husband drove me 2 hours to go look at her. She was a BYB and I later found out not a great one. Cali was the only one available as her 2 litter mates were taken. SHe was 6 weeks old and so tiny and cute. I fell in love the second I held her. I put a deposit on her and got her a few weeks later. She was a very easy puppy and still is an easy going girl. Then I decided heck I want to have 2 yorkies and started looking for another one. I decided to get one a little older. SInce Cali had such major health problems the first 8 months I decided I wanted one from a show breeder. I really had a certain look in mind. It took 6 months, but Kim (Yorkiepassion) RIP told me to call Stardust Yorkies. So I called Susan and talked for 45 minutes. After talking for awhile she said she had this little girl who was too small to breed or show and I could come look at her. So on a cold January evening I called my sister up and she said let's go. My DH said here take this money with you just in case. I wasn't going to but took it with. When she brought Pixie up I was in love. She was exactly what I was looking for. So Pixie went home with me that night almost 4 years ago. Then a year later, Susan called and said she had a little 6 month old that was just like Pixie and would make me an offer I couldn't refuse. So I called DH at work and he said what are you waiting for go get her. I went a couple days later and when I took her out of the crate she had this cute christmas bow in and was the cutest little thing. So Dixie went home with me. Sadly, 5 weeks later she was diagnosed with congenital kidney failure and nothing could save her. Susan and I cried together and I knew she would have never sold her if she had known. So a month later Susan called me to see how we were doing and said when I was ready she had a little 4 month old male that was another Pixie. I didn't want a male so she said she had his sister but she was going to be bigger. I told her I didn't care about size so we went to see her. Roxie came home with us that day. She just turned 3. Then I took in Nikki when his owner had a stroke. I am done for awhile. |
