| #3!?!?! So...yesterday we went Disneyland and we had fun there. But the night before I talked to my sister (who has our babies grandmother...Lace) about her yorkie and she asked me if I would like to take her. She is an older yorkie, 8 years old (9 in December) and such a sweet heart. She has a nice set up at my sisters but for some reason she is allergic to something. I think it is the grass in the back because growing up we had a dog that was allergic to it also. Long story short, she was outside a lot and my sister though it would be best if I took her. I told Jer about it and he was on a mission..he was a bit upset (and so was I) that they kept her outside so much so that she was so uncomfortable. So after watching the fireworks at Disneyland we went and picked her up. we got home at about 3 somthing in the morning. We got her settled in and went to sleep. She is a sweet little thing, and just loves belly rubs. She will lay on her back and just look at you and if you ignore her she licks your hand and then plops down on her back. They have her competely shaved down but she is such a doll. I never realized how small she was 5 1/2 pounds. My sister took her a bath before we picked her up last night and I am going to go to the store and see if I can find something for her skin. She has been itching it off and on. I also think that maybe with a higher quality food she may itch less. I think her allregy was from the backyard but you just never know. Does anyone have any suggestions. She itches mostly on her back legs. So now it looks like we have #3. She is such a doll and a pleasure, and maybe she will teach the pups some manners...hehe... It is so funny because she reminds me of Bella. I'll post some pictures as soon as I download them.

| She has been following me to each room and finding a spot to sleep. We are calling our house her retirement home. She is so calm and relaxed...

| oh, look how red and itchy her bum looks in that last picture. Bless you for giving her this wonderful 'retirement' home. I've gotten Itch Relief shampoo from my vet before, it worked wonders & was no more expensive then any other shampoo. Aveeno oatmeal bath is a good thing for itchy skin too. What do the twins think of her?

| She is a cutie What are you feeding your other 2? It might be food allergies causing the itching but if you think it is environmental, you could ask the vet for allergy meds or even Benadryl can sometimes help. I hope she was on heartworm meds since you said she was spending so much time outdoors. It sounds like a trip to the vet is needed for a HW test/meds and allergy meds and medicated shampoo too.

The twins saw her, I don't want to overwhelm her too much. So I let her sniff at their xpen. They are ready to play. but I want her to settle in. We use to have playdates with her and Suri and they had a great time. ...so I have not doubt they will get along. I can't believe we have three now, but we talked about it and we are able to so we did. She is going to get spoiled just as much as our twins. Jer is already in love with her and our soon to be ex roommate wants to adopt her! But she is going to live out her life as a spoiled yorkie with us...as it should be!

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | congrats on the new addition! she is very cute and i'm sure will fit right in with your two babies. I'd just switch her to the wellness asap. Since its a good quality food it might be the only thing needed to help with the allergies. Wellness has their regular small dog kind and senior food, plus is has Simple Solutions for allergy cases and Core with no grains.
