Majority rules!!!!!

rilysmom..... sounds like a done deal, definitely get her if she seems right. Having 2 is terrific, and by the way having 4 is really fun too. I got my second, Meika, when Tiki was 5 months old, and it was perfect (I also have a 13+ yr. old schnauzer). The little girls were so fun, I got 2 more baby sisters (Morkies) when the first 2 were a year old. My furfamily is complete for now, and I love the way they play together, yet always have plenty of lovin for me.

Getting a healthy dog from a good breeder is of course very important, cause you will already double your vet costs with 2.

Looking forward to hearing more about this girl; good luck!

The lady is a wonderful breeder and I have seen some of her other puppies...one that is a full brother from another litter and he is gorgeous! I feel it is a great opportunity to get another one, but should I wait until Rily's is older? I work, but my husband is home and he is great with dogs. In fact he is a "puppy stealer."

Well, if your husband is home, I would do it. Although, its hard to train two dogs at the same time.. I would probably still do it though esp if you know the breeder is great! GL!

cliffick · 10-07-2009, 10:22 AM

I would do it! I have my two girls and one of them (my Maggie) has 3 boys. I am selling two of the boys only because I don't feel like I could give all 5 the attention they deserve. However, it is getting harder and harder to sleep at night thinking about the day they go to their new furever homes!

Knitter · 10-07-2009, 11:10 AM

YES. Any other question I can answer while I'm here?

penpen7073 · 10-07-2009, 11:39 AM

I would get her now so they can grow up together ! I want another girl but my husband wants me to wait tell we get are house built. but that will be another 5 month away

I cant wait I really want another furbaby so sophie can have a play mate

rilysmom · 10-09-2009, 06:15 AM

Thanks to everyone for all the positive encouragement! I got to meet the little angle and she is gorgeous....but, it is not looking to good for me...the lady has decided to not breed the momma again, so, her daughter now wants to keep this little girl (the only girl in the litter.)

She will have another litter ready in a couple of months, so I may be able to get one then. BUT, I so wanted this little girl...she is so cute...I held her for about an hour and she curled up and went to sleep in my hands....How sweet is that?

Sorry to hear it might not work out. It's really not nice of the breeder to offer her for sale, let you see her and get excited about her, then change her mind. But if this is how it turns out, maybe that means there is an even better match for you in the future. Things have a way of working out. I wish you all the best.

Judy, this is not Kelly's little girl is it? I just saw this thread. I hope it works out for you. Elaine

rilysmom · 10-20-2009, 06:15 PM

No, this wasn't Kelly. This happened a couple of weeks ago....I guess MauiGirl was right....There WAS something better for me in the future. I thank God I didn't get the first one. I'm so happy you helped me connect with Kelly and her baby girl. Thank you so much for that....I wouldn't have known about them if you hadn't posted about Cosmo on here!

You are right....but I'm so glad it worked out like it did. I was sad, to say the least, but I have found another gorgeous little girl. My DH and I are driving to NC on Friday to pick her up. Her pics is in my other thread http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/gen...ster-rily.html

Britster · 10-20-2009, 08:10 PM

Congrats!!!

I've been facing the dilemma of adding another dog as well. Not to invade on your thread, but Jackson is an awesome dog. I worked really hard with him as a pup, he's a wonderful companion, my little buddy. He would love a playmate/sibling. But I worry about how much it will change things. Jackson is 1 year old now. Will it change him? Will it be just as easy to travel? How much more will it be to own a 2nd? I also think... I really don't want more than 2 dogs at one time (3 would be my limit but even that is pushing it) and should I just wait it out another year to see if the right dog comes along? I don't want to get a 2nd dog now and then see another one in a year.. LOL .I have all kinds of doubts and questions. I'm still just gonna wait it out.

CONGRATS ON YOUR LITTLE GIRL!!

Oh I am so happy for you. I'll check her out on your other thread, and look forward to hearing lots more about her when you get her. You know these little buggers are addicting. I have absolutely got to stop looking at furbabies, my house is full.

I know! I had/have all these feelings and questions too. But when I saw this little girl's picture, I knew she was the ONE! I believe when the right one comes along, you will know it too! I wish you the best and Jackson looks like he is eat up with personality! I love it!
