For those with three... - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Bitsy's Mom · 11-15-2009, 01:43 PM

I am so glad that I came across this thread. I have been lurking for the past few months watching for just the right puppy, working on the husband and trying to decide if three was just plain crazy. I am so gald to hear it is not. Thank you.

I also have a dominate male so after doing some research and some advice from YTr's have decided that our 3rd baby will be a female....hoping to avoid any aggression in the house along with possibile marking(though my male is neurtered). My family loves our little boy and girl and they are well behaved and love visitors. When we go out, we usually bring only one though, leaving the other at home. I am hoping that by having 3 that the two left at home will now have company and not be so sad.

Hubby has finally agreed to three and we are now looking! Wish us luck in joining the merry club of those with three.

I tried to post this picture earlier.

Gus is dominant & territorial, but Niko won his heart in a couple of days. Picture was taken day 7 after I brought Niko home.

I have three and day to day things are just fine, there are only a few things you need to consider. It is more difficult to walk three (My little girl will only walk by herself and the boys just want to be in front of each other)

I have to juggle when they get groomed because it's absolutely too expensive to pay $90 bucks a pop to get them done at the same time.

Vet expenses are also tripled. Thankfully all mine have been healthy and have only had to go in for routine checkups and shots.

But I wouldn't give up Ranger for the world, he's added so much joy and excitement to our house!

I got Saydee, my second, just three weeks ago, but I'm still lurking in the nursery threads and drolling over all the sweet baby pictures. I would love, love, love to get the third one, but I really, really, really must not go there now!

Bitsy's Mom · 11-15-2009, 07:21 PM

Awww...Gus and Niko look like best friends already.

In connection to the sale of my puppy to you, I apoligize that i did not find the open fontanel before our transaction went as far as it did. As soon as the vet told me, I felt the honest thing to do was notify you about it and return your money once you decided against taking her. I am just glad I was able to retun your money in a timely manner the neext day. I have always been honest as people know I am and the mother has been removed from my breeding program as I feel that is where it is coming from is scheduled for spay. This entire litter was sold on limited registration. Again, my deepest apologies and I only wish you the best in finding your right baby.

My family thought it was crazy, & I started having doubts.

I got the third, & they think it's great.

We say "go for it", our mommy did and we're all so happy she did!

Yeah my families are all into the 1 dog rule. I got two and they called me crazy and thought I had a zoo here

said I should charge at the door for the petting zoo.

Sounds like a good idea to me.

I gave my daughter bedroom furniture this weekend so I could turn the extra bedroom into a sewing room. She ask if I was trying to make room for my kennel.

Crickettsmom · 11-16-2009, 10:52 AM

Yeah, some of my family think I am crazy for having two, but they are NOT dog people. Wait until I get my third, they will start calling me the crazy dog lady. I just love them so much!!!

I don't think we're crazy, the others must be crazy for not wanting so many
