Hi Tammy,

I have to say that I am very impressed with your willingness to share your life with this group. I am happy that you have decided not to breed your darling Remmie. Probably very few of us actually have dogs that need to be bred, I know that I don't. But we do love them just the same.

I have to say that I am impressed even more with your maturity to realize and admit to a bunch of strangers that probably seemed less than supportive that you struggled with giving up a dream that wasn't to be right now. ;

It would have been much easier to just ignore all the advice that went against your wishes. I hope that your unselfishness in the good of the Yorkie breed will be an example to all of us.

I think that all of us sometimes have some self-serving motives for having our little teddy bear puppies. I'm just as guilty as the next - I paid probably twice what my puppy should have cost because she was so tiny & cute and the breeder told me she wouldn't be over two lbs. Well she is already 2 lbs at not quite 4 months. So unless I quit feeding her today, she will be over 2 lbs and actually, after I started reading these posts, I am glad. I still think she will be plenty small to travel with us.

Anyway, I digress, the intention is to say I'm proud of you for not breeding Remmie and most of all, for being mature enough to say, I was wrong. Good luck to you and Remmie.
