I love yorkies of course, and I had a yorkie in my life for 17 years, but having the not so good luck with Woodie and Shelby, I have jumped ship and have gone to the "dark side". I now have a Shi-Mal... Shih-tzu/Maltese.
I acquired Woodie in 2006, from Kim, aka TexasShopper73. She had named the pup Baxter, before I ever got to meet him. I had already made up my mind that I was going to get a yorkie, and I was going to call him Woodie,,,,,,so that came about.
Well, on the way home with my new little addition, with Woodie still weighing very heavy on my heart, I decided that to me it would be fitting for me to name this puppy Baxter, after Woodie. If he is half the dog Woodie was, he'll be a great dog! |
