It's nice to meet everyone! My name is Anna. I've always been an animal lover but got my first yorkie this past Sunday. His name is Dallas, and he is 4 months old.

I really feel like he was meant to be a part of our family. 8 years ago on May 12th (my daughter's birthday) my sister's dog had puppies in my house. We kept one of those puppies and named him Griffin. He grew up with us, and was a cherished member of our family. He died this year, on May 11th, one day before he turned 8 (he had a brain tumor, the vet thought). It was devastating for us but after 4 months we decided we were ready, and I found Dallas on Craigs List. He was also born on May 12th, the day after our Griffin died. We feel like Griffin sent him to take care of our family. (Corny, maybe, but it just seems so perfect!) I'm already totally in love with this little guy, and am having the best time getting to know him.

We also have Bianca, our maltese, who is 6. Dallas loves Bianca, but Bianca doesn't care for him at all yet (we're hoping that will improve in time).

I guess that's it. I look forward to getting to know everyone here!

Anna
(And I'll add pictures asap. Unfortunately, he's rather rambunctious and doesn't care for sitting still while his picture is taken. LOL)
