I've been a member since beginning of March 2005.

1. What was your first impression of YT? I was like "Wow, where have you been all my (yorkie's) life?" I was excited at the amount of info available and excited to see that other people are just as obsessed with their yorkies as I am mine. I still wish I'd found this site when I'd first adopted Sully! Woulda saved me a lot of silly panicked phone calls to my breeder, LOL.
2. Who was the first person that *really* reached out to welcome you, whether it be PM or some other way that you remember? Cynthia (iheartyorkies) - and then it turned out that we have the same birthday! (Oct. 25) and I also remember a PM from PinkMartini.
3. Did you have a specific problem/question for which you were looking for an answer?Umm.....puh I can't remember that far back. Probably something to do with crate training. No, wait, I think it was how to teach my dog to fetch (never really figured that one out though, LOL.)
4. How old was your Yorkie when you first found/joined YT?Sully had just turned 6 months old.
5. How long have you been an Yorkie owner? Since mid-October of 2004.
6. Did you know right away that you would be addicted to this site?I didn't know it would be THIS addicting right away, but I did join and save it in my favorites.
7. Did you make fun of members who had thousands of posts without realizing that you'd eventually be one of them?I didn't see myself becoming "one of them" but I never made fun of anyone...I just figured this site had been around a long time, haha.
8. Have you met any YT member in real life? If so, who?I've met "Angiedoogles" but only because she was my friend first before I talked her into joining YT. Gosh I feel like I've met a handful of you guys but I don't think I've even met a one, wow, that's funny.
9. Have you spoken to anyone on the phone? Who?ttreatsyorkies b/c she used to live near me, though we never actually got around to scheduling a meet-up
