I buy hair bows by the dozens too! With that said, I totally agree with what you stated. My girls are my world! They are kids to me (empty nest fillers since my baby is 15). And I wouldn't trade them for a million dollars! My son asked me if someone offered me $2 million for Rosie would I take it. I didn't even have to thunk about it. I immediately said no! He said I was crazy!
Don't want to talk you out of a yorkie at all! Just want to be honest with you. I can tell you I have never spent so much money on a dog as I have my yorkies. After having a yorkie, I honestly don't think I will ever own another breed! |
Great advice! Yorkies are definitely in the high maintenance category, it is very costly as well.
Personally I would advise my 26 year old daughter to wait until she was settled before getting a pup. Make sure you do plenty of research, also have Health Insurance and some money for back-up.
Also, this reminded me of my daughter who once yelled "you love that dog more than you do your own kids"....I simply replied "Thats not true I love you all the same" lolol....
