| New Little Guy Tomorrow I am so excited. I was approved by a Yorkie rescue and am traveling tomorrow to pick up my new little guy. His name is Nicky and he is 3 years old and weighs 4.5 pounds. That will be a good size match for Joey. I had asked about him last winter and he had just been adopted. Then I got a call this week that after all these months the family dumped him back at the foster mom's house with no explanation. Now Nicky is afraid of the foster dad whom he used to love and really prefers women. They are afraid that the the husband of the woman who adopted him might have been abusive. Well I live in an all girl household so they remembered my application and called and it happened so fast. Foster mom says he is a great little guy, was a puppy mill rescue. I am so excited and a little nervous. Sadie and Joey are taking the drive up with my daughter and me. Wish us luck. Will post pictures as soon as I can.

| Congratulations! And bless you for reaching out to take care of this little guy! What a difference you will make for him. I can't imagine what he has been through at the mill, and then just when he probably thought he was getting a real home, he winds up losing that too. Now with you, he will be able to really find out what life is about. This is a wonderful thing you are doing!

| Thank you. The foster mom said he just loves being held and snuggled and just needs reassurance that the world isn't such a dangerous place for him. I can't wait to hold him in my arms. He has been through a lot.

| Congratulations, some of them are so fragile-not just physically but mentally also. When we first got Sissy she didn't like to be held or snuggled at all. I don't think she knew what it was. She is 4 now and loves belly rubs and when scared or in an unfamiliar place loves tp be as close as possible and is the queen of kisses. Be patient, give him time and I'm sure he will understand he is safe and make you proud of your decision to take him.

| Cant wait to see pics of Nicky. Remember to have lots of patients, they have experienced things we will never know about. They do come with bagage, but dont we all. In time Nicky will feel secure with his new surroundings and will be a very loyal little guy. Please hurry and tell us all about him. |
