One week ago today, Bailey, my love and True Friend of The Family went to Heaven. He had a heart murmur which resulted in congestive heart failure. I am grieving still. He was born in March and almost to the day, 14 years later he left us. I have never mourned as I am now. My wife and son are also taking this loss very hard. I still have Mia, my 8 year old but she too is grieving the loss of her friend. We will be holding a memorial service at our home on Easter Sunday (my birthday) and toasting our Bailey with Bailey's Irish Cream. I know there are many of you out there who have experienced the loss of your dear ones and I would appreciate hearing from you if you can find the time.

We are already considering another Yorkie. We can't replace our boy but I know that he would want us to provide our boundless love to another boy or girl. We are thinking we would like an adult over the age of 2 or 3 that needs the best care and most loving environment possible. I do all my own grooming, nails and teeth brushing. Also on our wish list is one between 6 and 12 lbs. My boy was 11 lbs so we are partial to larger Yorkies but not too large since we have a built in "doll-door" which will accommodate only something under 12-13 lbs.
