 New Member New Mom
Hi. My name is Leslie & I live on the west coast of Florida near Tampa. I am already the mom of 3 parrots. Tango & Edie are african greys. Jack is a white capped pionus. On Jan 1st I will be a brand new mom of a 8 week old yorkie. We haven't decided what to name her yet. My husband likes the name Bristol (he's a NASCAR fan, Bristol is a short track..get it..short track). Her nick name would be Brissy. I want a more sweet girly name but I want my husband to contribute also.
In my pursuit to be a great mom I have read two books on yorkies and have read all of your FAQ's ect. One question I have is what is better, a cage or carrier to have her in at home. One book says a cage the other says plastic carrier. All of your expertise would be appreciated. Any other advise?
We visit her often. She is at a home environment with 3 adult yorkies and plenty of people. She has 2 sisters and 3 brothers. She is the runt but very healthy. According to the chart she should be 2.5 to 3 lbs at 24 mths.I have taken over 2 baby blankets and some toys that will come home with her so that might help with her separation.
Well, that's pretty much it. I look forward to reading the posts for enlightenment and tips. Leslie. (any suggestions for names as you look at her picture?) |
