I've always wanted a dog, but was never allowed. My husband and I were married this past July and we decided to get ourselves a dog as a Christmas present to ourselves. It didn't work out that way for one reason or another. I had a chance to doggy-sit my cousin's bichon for a while and that's when I knew that I didn't just *want* a dog, but that the house felt empty without one (I'm a teacher that works days, and my husband is a waiter that works most nights). In the mean time we were researching which breed would be right for us. We couldn't agree, but then a cuple of people we knew got yorkie puppies recently, and we fell in love!
In mid January Angelo called to say taht he saw some yorkie pups and other breeds at a local pet store and wanted me to come see them just to check them out and interact with them. I fell in love with one of the little female yorkies because she seemed to make the most eye contact and was cuddling into my foot. A week later I came home from grocery shopping and Ange asked me to go to teh bedroom to check on something and there she was! The female from teh store! We named her Tia...we went through a bit of drama with her LP, and we thought we would have to give her up...but we kept her! IN fact, I brought her to teh vet the otehr day and as of now one of her 2 affected legs is now perfect! We love her to pieces! |
