One of the most surreal moments of my life was recently when, the NIGHT before I was to go pick up my first yorkie, I received an email from relatives BEGGING me to take theirs, as they were moving and would be unable to care for her any longer.
I saw her when she was a pup, and fell in love...in fact, she was the inspiration for me "going for it" and finally buying that yorkie I'd always dreamed of for myself. But I haven't seen her since, so I was shocked to hear that, at nine months, she is still less than two pounds. (?!?!?!
)
It's so incredibly ironic to me that EVERYONE I talk to wants a "teacup", and people are willing to pay thousands of dollars for them....and here I am...I didn't even WANT an undersized yorkie....and I'm having the wee-est of ones given to me for free!
I've only had my own puppy for a little over a week, and the new girl will be here MONDAY.
I'm excited, but also scared. So far she's been "perfectly healthy", but of course, I've heard all the horror stories. Could owners of tinies please advise/reassure me?!?! I need to hear from your voice of experience!!!
