New Yorkie owner and neurotic. I got my first Yorkie the beginning of the year. Toby. He was perfect. Everything I expected and everything I ever wanted. I had him neutered. He never seemed to recover. I took him back to my vet and was told there was nothing to worry about. I went ahead and found a specialist and set an appointment. Toby died the day I made the appointment. My only guess was some liver issues. Although that is just and only a guess. I was and still am devastated.
I have gotten a new puppy. (from a different breeder) (one I had already planned on getting before Toby past.) I thought long and hard about getting this little girl. I was so afraid it was toooooooo soon after Toby. But I prayed and prayed and found that it was meant to be. Lizzy. She is in no way a replacement for Toby. But she is such a joy and I tell her stories of her older brother all the time. We have bonded thru Toby.
The breeder I got Lizzy from is wonderful! She had Lizzy tested for everything including any liver issues. She continues to call wanting to know how we are doing.
I am now going crazy. Every time she looks funny, moves her head, stumbles or just plain breathes and I want to take her to my NEW vet. I have always been a very neurotic pet owner and now I am reaching new heights.
I see her in the mornings after she has eaten rubbing her head on the carpet. I see her wobbling while playing. I know I know this can be just what it is….puppiness.
Sorry for such a long post…. I just wish someone would pat me on the shoulder and tell me everything is and will be ok. I know this can’t happen. But I love that I have found this site and feel like maybe someone out there can relate.
