I was here just about a year ago seeking advice on how to find a yorkie. Actually we were looking to rescue a yorkie or yorkie poo. After a LOT of frustration, we finally found our pup!
I'm not sure how to post a picture on here, so I put her picture in my profile. The kids went back and forth on what to name her. She is officially "Princess Daisy Sparkle - the worlds best yorkie poo" We call her Daisy for short.
She is sweet, smart and affectionate. Basically the best little girl in the world.
I was surprised to discover that we had a LOT of trouble with rescue agencies. My youngest child is 6 and a lot of places would not consider us because of his age. In the end we just got lucky. A family member had a 9 month old yorkie poo that they could not keep. Someone gave their child this dog as a gift without asking the parents. (
what goes through people's minds!?) The relatives wanted to breed her to get puppies and some quick cash, then give her away. CRAZY!
After 1 visit I knew that she would be perfect for us. She came with about 1/2 of her shots done and a bit of equipment. (winter coat, carrier, toys, leash, etc)
We got her chipped and spayed right away! (she never had puppies) She lives in a house with a large yard instead of being stuck in a NYC apartment all day! She chases squirrels and birds and is a well loved member of the family. The best part, to me at least, is that she and my 6 year old are best friends!
