You should have warned me....

There's not a day that goes by that I don't laugh or smile with Bentley's antics! I, too never knew the immediate love you feel for these little ones.

I got my first yorkie when I was 20. 44 years later I still have a yorkie in my lap. I have had many other breeds but there is just something about the yorkie personality. They all have that ability to grab your heart and stay in it forever.

Hehe. There are many of us here who suffer from Multiple Yorkie Syndrome. Once you get one, you can't help yourself to get another.

LOL- I did the same thing with cockatiels before dh and I had kids.

And after years of fighting me on getting a yorkie (he thought they were too "fru fru") it was actually my husband who started asking when we were going to get Rhett his Miss Scarlett.

You have to not only see it but hold it for at least 10 seconds and breathe in the secret yorkie scent and then....gotcha!!!! instant member. Again welcome. Come here and ignore the discord of the various sects and just drink from the fountain of the all encompassing knowledge...

Hairy Yorkie, Hairy Yorkie, or was it Hare Yorkie, Hare Krishna, Hairy kr..yorkie... I get confused

**no offense meant to any members of any alternative belief systems*

anyone seen my saffron robe??

We just added number FIVE...

OMG, This is too cute and my DH calls me the Crazy Dog Lady! Hi there, I've been lurking here and learning from everyone for months. My little boy Sprocket, came to me about 6 months ago and we are his 4th home. How anyone could have given him up is beyond me because I too am now infected by Yorkie love, OH, those big brown eyes, so innocent, and the who me look? Although I did not know that there was such a thing as multiple yorkie syndrome, I can see it! Shhhhh, I think DH may have also become infected with Yorkie love as he is the favorite (dog) play toy, and of course we don't mention this as DH trys to maintain his status of "oh no, not me", yah sure. Thanks everyone for all of the info and the laughs.

Lol, these are all too cute. I've been feeling the MYS itch lately, little Rizzo wants a play pal, but unfortunatly the time is not right for me to get another Maybe in a year or so

I love the name sprocket, too! MYS. Give an illness a name and the head shrinkers can work with it.

No chance... MYS is NOT treatable and resists all drugs! Even the YA (Yorkaholics Anonymus) closed their doors after many failing attempts to get the addicts 'dry'... the only result of the '12 step program' was that all the attending addicts didn't stop until they had 12 Yorkies...

[nana911]

Well, the first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem. And....
I don't got no stinkin' problem!!!!

LOL, I'm just getting home from work now... anyway, what are all my family and friends doing here?
Not my birthday....I N T E R V E N T I... WTH!?!?!?!

[kdreamson]

For me it's all in their eyes! Yorkies have the most beautiful,soulful true eyes! I never get tired of looking at them. I don't know what it is but you cannot explain it to a non yorkie person.

You are so right! That's why the decal on the back of my yukon says:
"It's a Yorkie thing..you wouldn't understand." I had 5 little paw prints with each of their names, then I got Tia..so I added another paw print with "Tia says me too!" It's a sickness I'm actually glad I'm infected with!...and it's soooo contagious!
