I'm sure you know what's best for you, but each dog has such special personality and temperament traits, and like it is now with Maximo and Teddy, you love the individual differences. I never thought I would love another little girl as much as I loved Jolie, and then Ashley joined our family, and she completely stole our hearts. There was something truly special about our little one, Gracie, and I never expected to have another one with her special and unique qualities. Yet there are so many similarities between Katie and Gracie, and the love we feel for her is overflowing with such warmth and joy. I don't ever want to be in the place when the loss of my little girls gets easy for me. I'm so glad that the love I feel for them is so strong, and the overpowering, memories are the sweet, happy ones. I don't ever feel that one little one can replace another one, but they are often reminders of our other forever loves.
I will always want a Yorkie in my life, but I've considered Havanese and Biewers, which are so much like Yorkies to me. I'm a dog lover, big and small, and I'd love to add to our family.
