Hello YT Friends, as many of you know, I was super excited to get my little Lola this week. The thing is, it is Friday and I still do not have her! I'm so bumbed and feeling lonely so I thought I'd tell you all my story.

I have been wanting to get a dog of my own for a while, but I knew that I would be moving to Kansas City so I put it off. When we got here, my (ex)fiance convinced me that our apartment was too small, we didnt have time, ect ect so we got a guinea pig instead. I love my little Peanut, who thinks he is a dog, but its not the same. Well, 4 months ago my fiance who is an Iraqi Freedom veteran decides that he can not live in the US anymore and up and leaves, moving to Germany. We haven't lived in KC very long so I do not know many people and get pretty lonely and so now I really want my precious furbaby.
I know that being lonely isn't a good reason, but I had wanted her for a long time and now there was nobody to stop me. Well, I do some research and decide that I'm going to get a Yorkie and start looking around. Of course I fall in love with this puppy I find online and start communicating with the owner for a few weeks and make plans. He had told me that she was nearby, but then, all of a sudden he wants me to wire money to cameroon......I'm sure that you have all heard of that one and thankfully I didn't fall for that one.
I'm bumbed for a while, and begin my search again.
I tried to be really careful when looking for a breeder and eventually decided to go with a woman who is a vet, was recommended by a member here, and turned out to know one of my friends. I went down with my friend to pick up her maltese that she got from this breeder and met her. She seemed nice and I told her I was very interested. She even brought out 2 week old Yorkies for me to hold. I stay in contact with this women. She does not want a deposit "because I'm Amber's friend" and tells me that the puppies will be ready for me to pick up on my spring break (which is this week) and to call her to see how they are doing. So I called on Saturday morning, then I called again Thursday night, leaving messages both times and I still have no little Lola. I was SO excited this week and have already bought a TON of stuff for her. I can understand if she needs more time with her mommy. Her health is very important to me, but I would sure appreciate a phone call! I even started looking through the classifieds today. That $500 mom and pop Yorkie is sure starting to look good.....

Sorry this is so long! But I feel better just getting all of my frustrations out. Maybe she'll call tomorrow.....
