Love

We have a 14 yr old chihuahua, Lexi who has been suffering and on medication for Congestive Heart Failure for 2 years, we know our time with her is coming to a end. The week before we lost our precious Heffy, my 20 year old baby boy moved out unexpectedly. Needless to say, I am experiencing grief from our loss of the lil man and the empty nest syndrome all at once. We have decided that for us the best thing to do is to go ahead and get another puppy to help ease some of the loneliness. We understand that a new puppy will never take the place of our Precious Heffy, our Angel Lexi or our 11 year old Tito we lost 4 years ago to Congestive Heart Failure also. They have each added so much to our lives over the years we were blessed to have them. They all had different things to add to our lives and will forever live in our heart. I love Yorkies, but could not bring myself to get one that looked anything like our lil man. We have decided to get a Parti male puppy. I truly appreciate Yorkie Talk for the fact that I can openly discuss my grief without being judged and looked at like, well he was JUSt A DoG! No he was not, he was a family member. You will never know how much your supportive words have meant to me and I know you truly get it. The nightmares of Heff's passing are the worst and I truly pray that they go away soon, its like reliving it all over again. I am looking forward to the wonderful support in bringing the new love into our home and help with the whole Yorkie puppy training thing again. Our new addition will be ready to join us the first of February if he is big enough to leave his mom and has his teeth, should be around 12 weeks old, which will be perfect.
