I can't thank all of you enough. I have gained so much insight into yorkies and have become a far more informed yorkie mom. I only wish I had gone onto this site prior to getting Reese, but then again, I would not have been lucky enough to have her.

I still do believe that in all bad, much good does come out of it. Sure, I will be looking at huge medical expenses for her, and have been through a lot of pain with her. But, nothing can compare to the love my entire family has for her and what she gives back to us. I still remember the pet store owner telling me that he would exchange her... he wouldn't have been able to pry her from my arms for any amount of money, any other yorkie or for that matter ANYTHING at all. We will continue to do everything in our power to make her as healthy as possible and always as comfortable as possible.

The main lesson that I have learned, is that you must be cautious when buying a puppy. There are so many factors to take into consideration and ignorance will by no means be bliss. I honestly appreciate all of the responses that I did get and will continue to ask questions, research and read all of the information on this site. I am so glad that my family and I have found this forum.
