Thank you so much for responding! Everyone has such good ideas! I will definitely be using your good advice!
Many have asked for pictures. It's a little hard for me to post them sometimes. It is easy to do from my phone, but can't find an option to do it through the forums that way. I do post a lot of pictures on
Tera's blog, but I don't have too many recent pictures. I do have a couple of pictures of Rocky on there before we groomed him, but he looks much different there. I'll have to figure a work-around regarding pictures!
shawnzeppi - that is exactly what I was thinking...I have two arms, so three dogs would make it much more difficult. It definitely takes two people to take them all.
When we have taken them walking, I usually take two, and my DH takes one -- and we trade off sometimes. It makes it more manageable. Walks so far haven't been really bad...knock on wood! On weekends, when my 11 YO grandson comes, he will walk one dog, so we all have one.
DvlshAngel985 -how old is your yorkie? All the yorkies on this forum are so cute!!
Yorkiemom1 - wish I didn't work. On weekends we play a LOT with them...and in the evenings. My husband and I both work. That is part of the reason we wanted to get the 2nd yorkie, so the first one wouldn't be lonely while we were at work. I have a camera pointed on their area though, and frequently check in on them (as does DH). I have my MIL going to the house at noon to let them out. My DH gets home about 3:30 and I follow about 5:30. The staggering helps. If I could only be with them all the time, that would be much better!
Sounds like you've got everything down!!
yorkieusa - Yes...that is funny about DH wanting the 2nd...AND the 3rd. He is so funny. He was talking to them the other day calling them his "children"...LOL!
Teresa - 4 yorkies!! How did you get your yorkies? One at a time? A couple at a time? I'm very curious. It's hard for me to get my mind wrapped around 3. I admire you for taking on 4!
Jesslmetz - love the way you called them triplets...LOL. That's really cute! I'll have to remember that!!
Fur babies mom - so nice to know that it's do-able.
I am really feeling that this is going to work out. They are all three so different. It's funny how they all have their individual personalities!
Perrella - thanks!! BTW your avatar pic is so cute!! Why do I just love yorkie pictures!?! LOL
maggiesmom_2007 - How adorable that sounds...all of your yorkies (including your show yorkies) going on a walk! How exciting it must be to show them. Our girl, Tera, was from a line of champions, and she probably would have been a good show dog. We got her spayed though, so guess that is out of the question. We took her to obedience school, and she did very well! I started working with mine individually on Saturday to teach obedience to my younger two. I am finding I have to work with one at a time as three together is a little overbearing right now. Hopefully I will get them to the point where they can all do things at once. I'm excited!
Millies mamma - too funny!! After the big fight with the first one it truly amazed me how he was the big push for #2 and #3. Men are just funny sometimes!!
