Then this past April, we lost our boy just a few days before his sixth birthday from a tragic accident.  Within 48 hours, my husband surprised me by stating he wanted not only another Yorkie but make it two!  So, we will be picking up our two new babies in less then two weeks. The whole family is excited!   |
Wow! This sounds exactly like my story - husband story, I should add! I have been begging for a dog for years and he kept insisting on a big "manly" dog but my heart was set on a Yorkie. So eventually he gave in but said that he didn't want anything to do with the "girly" dog and that I shouldn't expect him to walk it because that would just be too embarassing. Well.... the proof is in the pudding.... they just steal you heart and it wasn't even two days after we got Milo that his heart melt. We lost little Milo in May, also an accident
. Even though I don't feel ready my husband is nagging for another and is actually insisting on getting two! What a turnaround!
Here is a picture to prove that Milo actually slept on his arm!
