Good Afternoon from the Windy City - YorkieTalk.com Forums

MeatBall · 01-23-2009, 12:16 PM

Hello all. I just joined the site yesterday. I used to be a member of all sorts of sites but because of work, I was super busy and couldn't keep up with everything. So now, after some time, I am going to try to keep up.

I am the mom of 3 furry little friends.

Preslee is my 6 year old female yorkie. She weighs in at about 6 1/2 pounds but come spring she will drop some of that weight. She hates the cold and would prefer to use potty pads indoors instead of going out in the cold and snow. She is the princess of the house. If she wants something, you better get it because you are going to be stared at until you do.

Tater Tot is my almost 5 year old male. He is between 2 1/2 and 3 pounds. Hes my shadow. Everywhere I go he is right behind me. Even when out walking down the street, he would rather follow behind me than walk in front of me. He loves the snow. If I would allow him to, he would spend all day playing in the snow. He is an amazing little dog. He wont sit on command but he knows how to use his inside voice in the house.

And last but not least, Meatball. Meatball is just turning 1 on Valentines day. Meaty, as we call her, is the offspring of my aunts yorkies. My aunt was sent over seas for her job for 12 weeks. Her female yorkie was pregnant and about to give birth anyday when Carmen got sent overseas so I along with my furry kids went to stay at her house. 2 days after Carmen left, Mushu gave birth to 3 little girls. I was there for the birth of all 3. My son was as well. As soon as Meaty was born my son made the comment that she looked like a little meatball with all the icky stuff all over her. I was not planning on keeping a puppy. I had 2 dogs and that was enough for me. But those beautiful eyes of my son won me over. From the moment Meatball was weaned she has been sleeping with me. She, like Tater Tot, follows me around. I joke because on top of the obvious of being a dog, she has cat charateristics and I swear she thinks that she is human.

As soon as I am able, I will post pics. I just wanted to say HI to everyone and ask that those in warm states send us some warm weather!! haha!

Welcome to Yorkie Talk.

I love the name Meatball, that is cute. I call my Sophie "Pork Chop" all the time because she is a little on the porky side.
