I LOVE the name Dottie!!!!!

I just want to let you know that I know EXACTLY how you feel about being a little apprehensive about getting a second yorkie. Our story sounds EXACTLY like yours....we toyed with the idea of getting a 2nd one...then put down a deposit...then became really apprehensive as the time drew near for us to get her. I thought I would be ruining a great thing that I had with Hobbs. But I am SO glad that I got a second one! I would not change it for the world!

Hobbs sounds a lot like Georgie....he is OBSESSED with other animals and LOVES playing with other dogs. So naturally I thought he would immediate be in love with our new puppy. But I will have to tell you, it really took some adjusting to get Hobbs used to Hootie (whom we got 3 weeks ago). I think there is just something about brining a new puppy home "permanently." So, be prepared for Georgie to have to make some adjustments. It took Hobbs about a week and a half to get used to Hootie, but now they are getting along GREAT and seem to be becoming really good friends.
