Hi!
Just officially joined this evening......I've been viewing the forum as a "guest" for a few weeks. Looks like a great group of people and I look forward to some good times!
I have 1 Yorkshire Terrier, Phoebi, who just turned 5 on July 1. She is the love of our loves. When I purchased her I was "dog dumb" and she is beyond out of standard. We choose to say we got more for our money! Her ears never stood up and her legs are those of a giraffe! She "bays" like a beagle and is the most precious girl I know! Other than the physical characteristics, she is a Yorkie to a "T"! (or at least from what I've read she fits the personality traits perfectly).
The second half of "yorkiemalt" belong to my maltese, Chandler who will turn 4 on August 6. He too is a big boy! Purchased from a breeder and when I was looking made the mistake of asking for a "big male" since Phoebi was already large. Well, you know the saying - ask and you shall receive! LOL
Chan has had a hard time the past few monthes (and Mom, too). He had a traumatic luxating patella fixed on April 3 - traumatic in the fact that he was a grade 2 bilateral with no symptoms until he chose to go nuts over a bike! We were 11 weeks post-op and then on June 28 injured the left knee! Nothing major just twisted it the wrong way.
He had his second surgery on June 29 and we just passed the 3 week post-op point! Only 5 more to go!
That's our story -- sorry I do like to ramble sometimes!
Looking forward to some good times!
