Yorkies are clever and sweet with adorable little faces just like my girls were when they were tiny. Yorkies need to be groomed daily have their teeth brushed and they (or at least my little Chloe) need a great deal of attention and thrive on being nurtured.
I have another dog that I love dearly but (in spite of feeling guilty) not even close to the way that I love Chloe. I truly didn't believe that it was possible to love a dog the way I love Chloe. So I have actually thought about why Chloe has had this affect on me and I guess it boils down to my need to care for a little one that needs me the way that Chloe does. |
This is pretty much exactly how I feel. Sugar came to me when I deeply needed to be needed again (kids going away to school). She fills every void I have
