Here's a little bit about me: My name is Jamie; I'm 24 years old. My puppy's name is Addie. She is the first yorkie I've ever owned and the second pup. She's a little over a year old. I had a teacup poodle before Addie, and it took quite a while (several years) to get over the sadness when she died.

I had just begun thinking about getting a dog from the shelter when a friend of a friend was giving Addie away at 9 months because (with a baby on the way and several children already in the house) they felt they could not give her the love and attention she deserved. So I met with her, immediately fell in love and took her home. It was difficult at first just because she came to me with so many fleas and she wasn't potty trained at all. She didn't understand what outside was and we would stand outside for more than half an hour with no success (what made it worse was the freezing temperatures. Yikes!). Finally, though, I managed to teach her what outside was for, and it's been fairly smooth sailing since! (Aside from her eating everything she can get her little paws on! She's made me an extremely clean person now!)

Of course, I love every minute with her!

By the way, I'm really excited to have found this forum. I can't wait to begin exploring it!

welcome to YT!:D

Hi Jamie from another Jamie :) Welcome to YT! and congrats on little Addie. She sounds like a typical busy body female yorkie! My Mayzie at 3 will still eat anything and everything that gets left laying around. <sigh> But they are great little companions!

Welcome to YT..and congratulations on your baby..:)

Welcome to the YT family. I'm sure you will love it here, I do, its fun and informative. A winning combo!

Thanks to everyone for the warm welcomes! I really think I'm the lucky one for having the opportunity to snatch her up!


I'm working on getting pictures up! Hopefully it will get done sooner rather than later. As a proud mom, I love to show off pictures of my baby!

I already love this place! People here are so friendly and welcoming!


Hi, Jamie! I'm glad Addie isn't the only one who eats everything and anything. :) Now that I have her, I really don't know what I would do without her!
