What an awsome thread this is!! I loved reading each and every post made so far and would like to add a bit of my experience to it....
Until i got a Yorkie (and a Maltese too
) i never thought i would see my hubby (who was in no way a dog person) sit on his recliner at night and the little ones jump up on it with him and he covers them up like babies and tells me "shhhhh dont wake them!"
until i got a yorkie i never thought i would stand at the door to the garage and explain to them that mommy and daddy will be back shortly and that they should just be good and be nice to each other and that we will miss them too!!
It takes an extra 5 minutes just to get out to the car!! lol
Having them in our lives has done crazy things to us!! (but we love it!!)
