Well I have bad allergies and so does my son and while we love our kitty, he sheds like crazy. I knew I'd always wanted a dog too and I've always been in love with Yorkies, ever since I found out what they were years ago. I don't even remember when I fell in love with them, but I've always warned my fiance that someday I WILL have a Yorkie haha. When I found out they didn't shed it just sealed the deal for me, mentally. Then we got Sasha on Thursday, my fiance told me she was my Valentines day, anniversary, wedding, and birthday present! No more for me till Christmas I suppose!
Oh well, she's worth it!
