[NrfnKiva]

i want you to know that i just went through a period...about a month of feeling so overwhelmed that i seriously wondered if i had made the right decision on getting Hailey.

see, my yorkie Kiva died suddenly last Oct. she was 12 yrs old and i loved her dearly. since she was an older dog she was really settled down. her personality was very sweet & calm.
after she died the house had that awful empty & sterile feeling. i was used to her being at my side and interacting with me. since i was all alone and so depressed i finally decided to get another yorkie pup. i guess secretly hoping that it would have a similiar personality to Kiva's.

well she didn't. Hailey's personality is exactly the opposite of Kiva. and i still miss Kiva so much.

after i got Hailey i was totally overwhelmed with having a puppy again. Kiva was so easy.......but Hailey was so hard. and i was still hurting so much from loosing Kiva and 3 other loved ones last year.
after having a tearful conversation with the vet he assured me that as time goes on i'll find so many things to love about Hailey. and he was right. i'm beginning to see many of her endearing qualities already. it just takes time to see them. and lots of patience with her training...lol

oh btw, i'm not a young kid either....i'm 57
