He is a great guy. Back around 2003 or2004 I had just come back from a week end visiting my dad. I had 2 yorkies at that time, I put the dogs in the house and went to unload my car. When I came in the house I couldn't find my youngest one Matese, she was big girl, 17 Lbs
. I looked all over for her couldn't find her. She was a fast lil girl, could dart out of the door without you ever seeing her, so out side I go, calling, calling, calling her, nothing, now I am frantic and crying, I live in a very heavily wooded area. I am walking down the road crying and calling her name, anyone I see outside I ask if they saw a large yorkie, all answers are no, I say she is friendly if you see her call me, I give my house address and cell # and continue calling and walking. A car was coming down the road, I flag it down, I am crying and frantic, barely able to talk I ask the driver did they see a yorkie, I tell them my dog must have scooted out of the house while I was coming in. The driver, a man,says to me, I am driving my wife to the bus depot, we have yorkies to, I will help you look if you will drive me back to the bus depot to get my car,I tell yes, he tells his wife here, take the car, I have to help her. He goes one way and I continue on the same road, for over an hour we are calling and looking. We meet back where we first met, I am devastated, my baby is gone,I can only pray she can find her way home, I tell the man walk with me to my house, I will drive you to pick up your car, we are walking towards my house still calling her name, we get to the driveway and who is looking out of the window, yep Matese lol, she heard me calling her name lol, God only knows how long she was at that window looking for me, wondering why dumb A!! momma was calling her.I was so happy to see her all I could do was cry and hug her tight. This guy was as happy as I was, I took my girls with me and drove him to the bus depot, I was telling him how i had searched my house for her, it's not a big house, not many places to hide. When I bot back home I started to search around again, where could she have been, she's not a hider lol. I am checking all lover, from the corner of my eye I see her black butt disappear behind the sofa. My sofa has recliners at each end. I go to where she disappeared and call her, out she comes, the sofa is very heavy because of the recliners, I drag it away from the wall and saw there was a nice size space between the two recliners, I also discovered it was her stash hide out, I found all my chap sticks, lighters, socks, her fav. toys all hidden in that space lol. The next day I had a gate put on the front porch,no more worrying about her escaping from the house. I walk down to this guys house the next day to tell him where she was hiding. This man has so much love for these lil critters, looking at him you would never know what a softie he is. Matese had to be put down Oct.1 2013 at age 17 y/o, the middle of Oct I was fumbling around out side,my eyes were swollen from days of crying for my little girl, I was at the end of my driveway, he was passing by with his car, stopped to say hello, saw my eyes were swollen,he gets out, asks if I'm ok, I start to cry, tell him what happened, he hugs me and is crying to. That' how much he loves these little dogs. He has no problems with his Masculinity.
