Went in, looked at all the adorable babies and last of all there was Bear. He was so tiny. My husband started saying, "You've just never HAD a dog (true). They give you so much love!"... and so on and so forth. Bear actually rescued me. My daughter, 41, had been dead for one year and I hadn't "gotten over it"... as if you ever do "get over it"... and we decided to bring him home. He slept through the night in his crate since the day we brought him home. He loves everyone and we have been entertained and at times amazed by the things he does. Just like everyone else I have talked to who had - or had ever had - a Yorkie. |
Cody (my adopted boy) rescued me also, not me him, 3 weeks after having to put down my beautiful little girl 16 y/o my son died in his sleep, 50 y/o, heart attack, he never had a prob. with his heart. just like that he was gone, not married, no life ins. and lived 2 states away from me. I have no family here where I live, and friends live far from me. I was still dazed and mourning the loss of my little girl, now another shock, as you very well know, a parent should never have to bury their child. I had to ID my son, the hardest thing I ever had to do in my life, it was beyond devastating, then there was planning funeral I am alone, never had to do a thing like this, didn't know where to start, but I did it, all in a foggy daze. Then I had to clear out his apt. since he had no will and I was not named to take care of his affairs, I had file with the court to be voluntary administrator, since my son died in his apt. the police had to be called, when the police come anything of value that is laying out in view they take, what they took was my sons keys to his apt. I could not get those keys without a document showing I was the voluntary administrator, it was a NIGHTMARE, 3 times a week I had to drive 2 states away. After 2 months I was able to get through all that. it was 3 weeks after my son past away that my vet called me about this dog. He saved my life, 3 weeks after my son passed away the aunt that raised me from the time I was 11 y/o died, she was closer then a mother, sister and my very BEST friend, had cody not been in my life when my aunt died I truly do not know what would have happened to me emotionally. I gat cody on Nov. 12, my aunt passed away Nov. 22nd, so Cody saved me. Yorkies are a great breed, little clowns, give many belly laughs, I love the breed. Have fun with your lil guy
