[Skeeters Dad]

Thank you all so much for your input and advice. I've had many canine family members and never one until Skeeter from a pet store. In choosing Skeeter to become a part of our family I weighed many factors. Size, temperament and hypoallergenic to begin but first and foremost to me was Terrier. I wasn't sold on the idea of a Yorkshire until I read an article titled "Yorkshire. A toy breed but all Terrier". Then as I researcher further I fell in love with the Yorkie.... my wife was already a die-hard Yorkie fan. We have two disabled children ages 10 and 12 and Skeeter has brought a level of comfort and joy to them that can’t be defined by any monetary value. And a great joy to the two of us goes without saying

Skeeter is a big boy at 11 pounds and luckily has the hair characteristics I sought in being hypo-allergenic. He is the sweetest dog I have ever known and loves to ride in the girls wheelchairs on their laps at any given chance... even for hours.

So why did I go to a puppy boutique? To me at the time it was simple in that we had specific needs and that was it. In all but "look" he is everything and more.
And no DBlaine he wasn't purchased in Birmingham, it was Southfield. I'm reluctant at this time to name the boutique publicly but I can say they are quite hostile. More may come of this later because their business practices are not ethical in the least bit. That point is moot though. Skeeter is a bad assed little Yorkie, or Morkie, adorable and kind. Stubborn when he wants to be and thinks he's the size of a Great Dane at others. I'll attaché some better pics later I am very pleased to have found this site…
