My pack of 3 are now all passed, 3 girls, all 3 years apart, all were mighty hunters and tom boys. When the two older ones passed the baby was 6 years old, she grieved for 7 months, so I just had to get her a BFF. My beautiful Matese as an adult weighed in at 17 Lbs lol, talk about big yorkies. I have a picture of her sleek body stalking a critter that was under a small shed, in my album. In my avatar there is a pic. of her burying a toy in one of my planters lol. She passed away in 2013 at the age of 17 years old. Not a day goes by that she is not in my thoughts and I still cry, I miss her so much. |
Hi matese,
I was thinking of a Yorkie being 6 or 7 lbs fully grown. Sorry to hear about your babies passing, I know that they meant the world to you! I still remember my father's GSD dogs, especially his pal, Blackie. Blackie was the smartest, coolest, GSD I have ever met and I looked up to him, like his was my brother. He was so protective of me!!! He passed a long time ago and I still shed a tear when I think about him sometimes. Wow, your dog lived to be 17!!! OMG! Thanks is so wonderful! I saw your avatar and your dog was really nice!!
