New YorkeTalk and for that matter Yorkies. So how did we end up here? Well let me tell you a little story.

About 4 weeks ago we were having work done on the yard and house. One of the workers knocked on the door and asked if our dog had gotten out.
Well, no, we didn't have a dog. We have a LARGE cat. Maybe he though he was a dog. Nope. There standing at the door was this little mess.
Dirty, stinky, matted. She was friendly as all get out and didn't appear to be starving.
So, we gave her a bath, took pictures, and canvased the neighborhood knowing that this was someones furbaby. After about 4hrs of searching
and posting found dog notices we decided to call the local shelter and our Vet. Shelter was full and advised us to hold on to the dog. So off to
our Vet we go, hoping that she was chipped. No chip. A quick exam, nail trim, and $50 later she was back at our house.
Now the wife heads to the pet store to pick up food, dish, water bowl, treats and toys. Wait honey.. she is only a visitor. The owner will claim her.
So, here we are 4 weeks later, not a call, no one has reported her missing. We call the shelter and the Vet nothing. Multiple attempts to reunite
her with her family. I can not fathom sending her to the shelter. She is too cute, smart, playful and house broken.
Another trip to the Vet for shots, ultrasound as they thought she might be pregnant(luckily no).
So here we are 4 weeks later. New parents to "Geni-Bean". A well behaved, loving, devoted little 2-3yo girl.
We are very happy and so is she. So we will be here reading and learning all we can to provide a happy and healthy home for our Geni-Bean.
