First I want to say all your guys advice is awesome, so thank you so much. I have had other puppies chihuahuas, and a boxer it's been a few years since my last fur baby losing him was hard and now I'm ready for my two little loves to join my family. I grew up with my friend who has a Yorkie he is around 20 yrs old now but having my own is different. I have done extensive research and talked to vets in my area to choose the right one for my girls. I really just think the best advice comes from people who have a Yorkie/Yorkies in their families. I have a car seat, but wish I would have thought of your brilliant idea of a laundry basket that's genius. I also have a soft carrier/crate and an exercise pen for them, haven't found a groomer I like yet I've seen some reviews that made my skin crawl one groomer shaved a ladies Yorkie bald and claimed the dog was matted when she was a show dog and very well pampered so I'm very cautious on who to trust. I posted the allergy list to my fridge so no mistake is made food wise, I picked up maden pin brush and comb for their everyday brushing along with a leave in spray. I bought glass bowls to keep the facial hair from becoming discolored ext.. I feel like I'm forgetting so much though. I'd rather be over prepared then under prepared. My biggest fear is I have a two story home and I can block off my stairs with my baby gate but I have a black iron railing I'm scared of them falling I don't know how to post a photo on my comment or I would so you guys can see. I've thought maybe I should make a long bumper guard filled with rice or sand so they can't fall or maybe a regular crib bumper will work. Oh and clipping their nails do you guys clip or use a dermal tool and how many of you guys pluck your babies ear hairs and who gets the vet to do it (I don't know if I could do it I wouldn't want to hurt them) I know this is super long sorry, oh and I'm going to be dropping off a blanket at the breeders so will smell like mom for them to help the transition of them coming home do you think it's a good idea or what is your guys opinions thank you again!
