Hey everyone!

OK, so my countdown to yorkie is now at less than 2 weeks.

But I'm wondering...is it normal that I feel pretty nervous? I mean, I've had a countdown since the mom yorkie was one month pregnant... But as the actual day nears, the amount of nervousness I'm feeling is increasing!

Did anyone panic when they first got their first dog, and ultimately get over it?

I'm getting him with my boyfriend, so what if a dog strains our relationship? What if I hate having a dog?

I think it's all the unknown- I've prepared SO much (my boyfriend makes fun of me), researched the best food, training facility, everything- but I know that ultimately when he gets here I have no idea what it'll be like.

Any thoughts on the first few days/weeks with a dog so I can maybe better know what to expect would be so appreciated!

Thanks.
