I had a picture in my head of what I wanted... Black & Gold yorkie...
I went to a bunch of breeders...
I went to go look at this little girl Yorkie about 20 min from my house... It was a little short black & gold Yorkie...
The puppy was cute no doubt...
Then the breeder had one of her little dogs on her shoulder, that barely had any hair on her legs, and just a tiny little thing, I asked if I could hold her (she was blue & gold) and I fell in absolute love with her... Just holding her fragile little body...
She told me that she had no health problems except when she was born she had a staff infection and it caused her hair on her legs and ears to not grow... And... she was born without a tail, and it was checked and the tail is NOT growing inside, so she had a complete bill of health!!!
I confirmed this with my vet, and decided this was the little girl I wanted, she was so sweet, playful, long legs, and when she is in grass, she hops like a little bunny ... SO ADORABLE!.... Nobody wanted her because of these reasons, and it was actually these reasons that made me want her... She was adorable, special, healthy, playful, funny, and smart!!! She is SO SMART! Those ppl really missed out!!! Their loss was my gain, because she is the best tempered, best attitude little Yorkie I have ever seen...
I instantly bonded with her, and I begged the lady to sell her to me. Roxy was only 2.3 lbs and 6 months old. I got her for 600. But she is priceless to me...
Now she is silver with black tips, but I'm sure it will be all silver soon, and she is also gold with black tips. She is the most beautiful & cherished thing me & my boyfriend have. When I'm not near her, I feel so alone, and when I can't help her I feel absolutely helpless... She is my heart.
AND SPOILED! lol

The point of my big huge long story is...
When you find that right baby, none of that will matter... All that will matter is the bond you make with that baby. You won't care about the color after awhile... You'll just care about the little soul of that little baby.

Never let a color make your opinion for you, because that might change anyways... its the bond you make with that puppy is important... you'll know when you find the right one... at least I did.

It's so refreshing to read this! It's true, too, I think, because if you're looking for a little one to love and cherish that will love and cherish you, too, then nothing else matters.

Our other dogs were older; we knew that when they passed on, we wanted/need a smaller dog. We're down to our last pup, a rescued tripod (only 3 legs!) who's 15 years old and has kidney problems (and is incontinent ). I didn't want to be alone when it's her time to join our other dogs ...

My husband had his heart set on a little girl for years. It's funny, HE'S the one who wanted a doggie to spoil, dress up, wear ribbons and show off to everyone. I asked him to keep an open mind. When we went to look at the pups, it was a little boy who stole his heart. So, instead of a prissy li'l thing, we have a rough 'n' tumble terror (oh! excuse me: terrier!!! ).

This pup is for lovin', not showin'. If we could keep him like he is now, a little furry black and brown fuzz ball, we'd be in hog heaven. I know his coat will change, and I don't know what it will change into. But he will be well-loved regardless of his coloring.

When the match is right, your heart will know - and it won't make a single bit of difference what color the pup is, if it's ears are too big, or even the gender. It will be RIGHT. You'll see!
