My heart strings are being pulled - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Tonight has been horrible. I saw a beautiful little girl on here for sale. Her name is Gracie. As I read through all the posts i broke down to tears. Little Gracie reminds me so much of my sweet Allie Baby. I just wish I knew if she was ok. It would settle my heartache a little bit. hmmm little bit, that is what we called Allie sometimes cause she was just a little bitty thing

Well there is something I haven't mentioned yet to anyone but my husband. I have already put money down on a new baby girl. She was born 10-21-07 One of my good friends Mom's raises and breed Yorkies. The litter consisted of 1 female and 2 males. Minutes after they were born I was called and offered the female at a highly discounted price, due to Allie being missing and friendship. Christina has 5 Yorkies who are all her "babies" They are her life. But the thing that "got" me was this female would be Allie's niece so to speak. You see Christina is where I got Allie's breeder info from. Her male Fresno came from the same breeder as Allie AND Fresno & Allie share the same sire. The female pup's sire and Allie have the same Daddy! So it's kind of weird. Did this happen for a reason maybe? Did Allie send me this new little girl? Oh I am just heart broke. It makes me in a way feel like I am replacing Allie, BUT if she was ever to be found she will have a for ever home with us no matter what. I was actually able to see the female pup within the first 24 hours of life. Christina's daughter is one of my best friends. So i get daily updates on her. I will include some pics of her.
I guess I just needed to share this. I don't want to feel ashamed of getting a new baby so quickly, but how I long for my sweet Allie. Obviously nothing will replace her, but my heart needs another warm Yorkie body here in our home. Maybe a miracle will happen and Allie will be found and we will have the joy of being proud parents to 3 furbabies! Wouldn't that be wonderful!

pic 1 is less than a day old
pic 2 is yesterday so 10 days old
pic 3 is yesterday 10 days, not a great pic coloring is off
all these are sent from a cell phone camera to my cell then put on here so they aren't the best quality.

Thanks so much to everyone who got this far

You are some special people here on YT

You should not feel quilty, like you said if your allie came home she would still be loved..

Everyone is different, some feel they cannot do this too soon, they feel they are betraying another dog...
I have always believed that if one needs another dog, then that is an honor to your lost and beloved pet.

I had a friend that had a small dog, it was killed in front of her house. the dog never went to the road..I talked her into getting a yorkie, I knew of one that needed a home. She did get the yorkie, she told me later on that getting the new yorkie gave her something to wake up for, helped her heal, she would never forgot heidi, but having tommi gave her so much love, she helped her so much. when she thanked me for talking her into getting her, I had a big lump in my throat...

Look forward to pics of you new baby, be excited, be happy..this will help your mental state ever so much.
If you did not name her, and this name was given her, think of it as the grace of god she came into your life at a time you needed her...
hope this helps you...and share you pics as you get them...

First of all...Allie is OK!! She is waiting for you at the rainbow bridge silly!! She is playing with my baby Moocho..my love of my life..he was a cocker spaniel and he would probably be chasing Allie around just to give her a kiss!!

Secondly it sounds like you are in love with TWO yorkies...Gracie and this new little puppy you have put a deposit on..does this mean you are trying to decide between the two OR do you want both??

I hope she is playing with Moocho

No I am not deciding. I will be getting the pup from our friends. It was just the thread with this little girl (Gracie they called her) her resemblance to Allie was striking to me. It put Allie on the top of my mind once again.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh I see!! Its funny how a picture or a song can remind us of our lost loved ones...Moocho's favorite toys was a cheap cloth bone we got at walmart for him..it had a squeaker in it..and Moocho would hold it in his mouth and all you would hear was "squeak squeak squeak" for 10-15 mins at a time..at the time it could get annoying..after Moocho was hit by a car that toy meant everything to me..the strange part is it never ever squeaked again..I still have it in Reece and Soleils toybox..I miss Moocho still and its been two years..Id give anything to have him back BUT if he didnt pass away I wouldnt have even gotten a yorkie...a little bit of Moocho lives in all my dogs..

I'm still hoping that you get Allie back. But I think it's fine that you are getting a new baby and I wish you all the luck in the world.

PrincessTinker · 11-01-2007, 07:38 AM

I think it's great your getting a new baby! Remember Allie will always have a place to call home with you

and if you get her back it will be so exciting having more furbabies

BTW I am still praying for Allies safe return

Patti · 11-01-2007, 09:04 AM

I think it is wondeful you are opening your heart to another baby. I have never been able to wait more than a week or so to get another baby. My heart breaks for the one I lost but there is some life and joy back in my life.

erino77 · 11-01-2007, 08:58 PM

i tell you these yorkies are showing me my heart is so much bigger than i ever imagined! Gosh I love them all so much

Erin,
Your post is so touching, it brought tears to my eyes. From what you describe, it really sounds like Allie guided you to this new baby. There is a void in your heart that needs to be filled by the sweet smell of puppy breath and the oh-so-heavenly feel of a little Yorkie snuggled against you. I lost my precious Tigger a year ago, so I understand how you feel. Since bringing Mango home in Feb this year, she has healed my broken heart with her ridiculous little puppy antics, zoomies and kisses. My senior, Spanky, who grieved so for her lost soul mate, has come back to life, even though Mango drives her totally nuts.

Let this new little girl give to you what Mango has given us; don't feel guilty about it. I am sure you will make a wonderful Mommy, and look what a happy event you have to look forward to this Christmas!

Lauren

trini&coco · 11-01-2007, 09:47 PM

My Yorkies have brought so much sunshine into my life...Anything I am ever going through, my babies are here to give me love and kisses. I hope your new baby will help lessen the pain you feel...You touched me with this thread...

Connie · 11-01-2007, 09:59 PM

Ahhhh...I had to go back to previous threads of yours to read about Allie being stolen. I am so sorry for you and little Allie. I will be praying for her to be safely returned to you. I've heard of so many finding their puppies when all hope is gone, so let's hope Allie finds her way home to you.

As for the little puppy, don't feel guilty. She will help you through the sadness. They have a way of making us laugh, even when we're feeling sad and I'm sure you could use a smile and a laugh! *HUG*
