Casso | 05-23-2010 08:02 AM | Hi I'm a newby Hello all. I'm Casso and my little yorkie is Teddy. He will be 14 in October. He is one of 4 family dogs all from the same breeder. Two Yorkies and two cross Yorky/maltese. The other family dogs have always come to stay at Ted's place when their Mums and Dads are on holiday. We've sometimes had them all at the same time. My husband Dave called them "The Black Paw Gang" with gang names. There was Slinky Soo because she liked rolling on her back to show the boys her knickers, Dynamite Dolly because she wobbled her bottom as she walked but that was because she was born with peculiar joints which would some times dislocate when she was a bit overactive and then we would stroke her gently til they went back. The vet said she would have to live with it as he did not recommend operations. They were about the same age as Ted, 14. Then there was Torpedo Tim, the youngest. His name is because when you went into his house he would jump about three feet in the air to greet you. Then there is Tear em up Ted. That's our Teddy and he wouldn't tear anyone up as he is a real softee and loves everyone and Dave wanted him to sound macho. I have a photo of them and will see if I can post it. Unfortunately Dolly died of a heart attack last year and Soo is not very well at the moment but the vet is looking after her and has prescribed some medication. I am so pleased to meet you and look forward to some chats. Casso xxx |
