Default My new Yorkie

Hi Everybody,

Back in Jan or Feb. I wrote on this forum that my sweet angel Truffles had passed away at the age of 15 on Christmas Eve. I got such nice responses from many of you that help me with my grief. The grief is still there, but, I have a new puppy. I got 'Coco' 2 weeks ago at the age of 12 wks. from a very well known breeder that, unbelievably, lives less than a half mile from my house! So, I feel lucky and honored that I got one of her pups. She has bred Yorkies (over 200 champions) for at least 40 yrs. In fact, Coco's dad is a grand champion!
She is absolutely adorable and we're so happy and feel so lucky to have her. We've fallen in love with her, of course. She'll be 14 wks. tomorrow. She was 2 lbs. 6 ozs. when she came home, and I'll bring her to the vet in 2 wks. for her next shots.
I knew I would want a new pup, but, wasn't sure about when to get one as I was still so sad and emotional from our loss. Coco has definitely made us much happier and I'm so glad we got her when we did.
So, I just wanted to announce my new adoption.

Also, there is a question I have. I did not crate train the first time around, but am definitely doing it now. I'm wondering what opinions anyone has on whether or not to withhold water before bedtime, and how long before if you do recomend it. Any suggestions??

Thanks a bunch,
Pam
