Sorry...had a business meeting!
Gosh~~some people are so cynical~~iI would know my own puppy's age...don't you think?

Well this is how the story goes...
It's 10% tiny puppy 90% GIGANTIC sweet potato!

Apollo wasn't miniscule but a bit smaller than the average yorkie~~the vet kept saying, "He's really healthy but small." He's not a teacup but the picture sure does make him look like one!

Now the sweet potato~~ I was actually present when the grower harvested the sweet potato.
When I first saw the sweet potato, my mind didn't register it~~I was in shock or something. That thing seriously scared me. I love sweet potatoes so I eat them on a weekly basis. The ones I've encountered are roughly the size of a man's hand. To make a long story short...I guess this sweet potato hogged all the nutrients because the ones that grew next to it looked like ping pong balls!

So yeah~~ that sweet potato was (past tense because we ate it for Christmas) the size of a four-month old yorkie! It probably weighed three times puppy!

Sorry the explanation is so jumbled! I'm in a hurry and typing on my iPhone!

But yeah!!!! I still have nightmares about that darn sweet potato!
