| How/Why did you get your Yorkie? Here's my story:
A few months back I was having baby fever before I got my yorkie TinyBaci.
Although I have two daughters I was obsessively wanting a 3rd child since my girls are older and not dependent on me (you would think they still would be they're only 3 and 6) I wanted a baby so badly. But after careful consideration my husband and I weren't ready financially or mentally and I also just started a great job about 9 months ago. My daughters and I have been wanting a puppy for a few years and didn't know whether we wanted get a Maltese or a Yorkie. We were pestering my husband for a while but he didn't want the responsibility of watching after a puppy if we didn't keep up with it .Then by chance before my 3rd daughter's birthday party, we were by the mall and had some time to kill so we went into the Pet Shop to pet some puppies.... The littlest dog there caught our eyes (me and my 6 yr old) so we asked to sit in a booth to pet him. He was such a well tempered cutie! He was giving 5 with his paw and would constantly turn over so we would rub his belly. My kids and I were in love. My husband saw the joy in our eyes and surprisingly asked the sales associate if there were payment plans available since TinyBaci was $1,500. My older daughter started first asking if we could take him home and already naming him Tiny b/c he was the smallest in the shop 12weeks 2lbs7oz. Then my 3yr old took my BabyPhat tote and put it on the floor demanding that her dad put the puppy in there for her to take home. We talked about it and decided to sleep on the idea since we weren't sure if the kids were ready for a puppy. Then my husband said, "Well they love this puppy they wouldn't be happy with any other puppy later on" We filled out the necessary paper work for financing and I made sure he was not from a puppy mill since I heard rumors of pet stores using puppy mills as a supplier. The great news was that Tiny was from a Breeder in Missouri and was all up to date with his shots and micro chipped. We went to celebrate my daughter's 3rd birthday at Fun world and returned the next day to pick up Tiny. Luckily b/c a man was there to purchase his second dog (a smaller dog for his wife) and was pestering the sales person for Tiny although his Kennel was marked "Sold". We took Tiny home and now we are living happily ever after.... = )
Thanks for listening!!!
