 new here - first post
Hi, I've lurked for awhile but haven't posted yet. My son has 2 yorkies which make me a Yorkie grandmother... they are my only grandchildren so far.
Sienna is a 17 mo old female and Tanner is a 7 month old male. They are pretty much opposites in personality and very typical male/female.
Tanner is so laid back and nearly clueless at times. He wasn't a jumper until he came to us 2 months ago, but he is very influenced by Sienna who is almost aerodynamic she jumps so much. He is a klutz and has some spectacular wipe-outs at times, but it doesn't stop him.
Sienna is a typical "jealous at times" female who was there first and is sometimes VERY jealous if Daddy is paying too much attention to Tanner. She will attack him by trying to mouth the back of his head behind his ear. Tanner mostly just shakes her off or ignores her. He will have had enough sometimes, however, and will give it back to her. They seem to enjoy tussling... and it have no overtones of attack in it. It helps that he is a little bigger at just over 5 lbs to her 4 lbs.
I think they both love the company with each other and have developed into a wonderful pair. I've included this picture because my son was trying to take their picture one day when they WOULD NOT co-operate. Leave it to a man to think up a different solution. It worked.
Just wanted to say hi to you all..
