I am so sorry but please remember that yorkies can and do come in larger sizes. How is her heart? Does she love you? Does she give you that look? Does she follow you everywhere? If yes to these questions, then you paid less than what you looked for. PRICELESS!!!
On this forum we care for each other and "all of our little ones too". I paid a certain price for one baby and got a family that is worth a million dollars. We will always be here for you and others. Post pic's because we would like to see what has captured our hearts.  |
I really like how you put things in perspective. My first dog, a little maltese, was purchased from a show breeder but 'below standards'. His hair was a little curly and he only had one testicle. He ended up weighing about 10 lbs. I took him in for a Vet check right after we got home and the Vet told me all this and that I should send him back. BUT, I had paid a pet price and didn't care about the rest - by then, he had stolen my heart. This was by Day 2.
Did I get ripped off? I guess I did. But he was my very first dog; my first little companion; he moved with me to 3 different states and together, we hiked every trail. He was the best dog ever - but he did NOT look like the tiny maltese you see in the magazines.
