But... the one I will add to the list.

I post more pictures of my Remy, Bailey and Sammy on Facebook that I do of my humane family. I say the reason is because they don't threaten me to take the pictures off like my girls do lol

..pick up poops and examine it

And to add to it. I love doing it so much for my wee hairy muffin that I realised he would be way happie with a brother. So I got a second one hahahahahahaha

First of all i thought i would never have a yorkie.It took my wife two years of saying plzzzzz.Heide then had her way and we went and got Gabby.I told Heide do not expect me to walk her ever. Well here r things I thought I'd never do until I got a yorkie:

*thought I would never say come give Daddy a kiss .
*thought I would never say let Daddy brush you.
*thought I would never walk her all dressed up or walk her peroid.
*thought I would never carry on a conversation with Gabby.
*thought I would never tell my daughter that Gabby is her sissy.
*thought I would never Kiss a dog.
*thought I would never sit around thinking bout my Gabby when she is not around.
*thought I would never feel like I would have to protect gabby from everything.

I know I am missing many others.I am just glad my wife talked me into getting our baby.I love this little girl sooo much.

I got married 2 weeks ago and I had a friend get my boys, bring them to us during the photography hour so that I could get pictures of my husband & I on our wedding day with our fur kids!

Never thought Id put a blanket over me whenever I sat down so my fur kids could go under all the time, they both love being covered up and warm when they sleep.

Pull poop and hair out of a bum when it's dangling because they ate my hair.

Add water to their food because they like it that way, or hand feed them because they will eat when I do.

Take my dogs on vacation with me because I can and because I can't bear the thought of being away from them for more than 1 week max!

Put clothes on my dogs to keep them warm.

Fence in an entire yard to keep them safe.

There is so much I never thought I'd do before I had Yorkies. Its amazing actually!

awwwwww you are the CUTEST!!!!! My husband treats my dogs like royalty! He complains about them jokingly and then I catch him snuggling, calling them over, feeding them by hand, going shopping for doggy stuff. He goes outside ahead of us and checks for coyotes, and he even put up another spotlight on the dark side of the house so we can see anything that may sneak up there. He carries them, holds them, takes them to the groomers, takes them for car rides to the dump and buys them their own doggy ice cream when we go to the ice cream stand. I love my husband all the more for his kindness to my babies.

I can add one more thing to your list, I bet you would never have thought you would have a membership on a website full of mostly women to just talk about yorkies

[DBlain]

so many things I never thought I would do

yes, examine poo, and wipe her clean after she does her business

dress up my little girl in tutus and southern style dresses

pay 3x's as much for Lola's airline ticket than for mine

Drive close to 100 miles each way to attend a yorkie party, because Lola likes to play with other dogs

Host a yorkie party which means I have to take up all my furniture, put down plastic covering over all the carpet, then rearrange the furniture to make a better play area for the yorkies. Then put everything back when the party is over

Search the internet for hours picking out the perfect holiday dress or yorkie related item. Stress for hours over which pattern of fabric and style of bow I should buy for her next custom made outfit

Spend more on her hair products than I do on my own.

Shower with Lola

Have more pictures of her than anyone else combined on my camera and on Facebook

Chase people down if it looks like they have a yorkie when they walk by my house, because I am always searching out a play date for my little girl.

Spend $200.00 to move our dock and hoist to a different part of our lake front, because Lola loves to swim and the dock and hoist currently sit in the best swim area

Spend hours talking about Lola with my husband.

I have always done this with every dog that we have had....

celstu1, thats great that he treats your furbaby with soo much love.I could not imagine being with a person who did not feel the same way towards my Gabby as I do.I thought I was the only man that walked into a pet store with a yorkie to buy her clothes,now I know I am not by reading your post and others here on YT.

Lol... Heide and I are always on the look out for people walking there yorkies. I'll be out walking Gabby and see a person walking a yorkie and soon as I get home I will be like Heide, I seen another yorkie and they live just around the corner. So I am a stalker...lol

Hmm, suprised Heide has not showered with Gabby yet.Doesyour little one like showers over baths?

Wow, sounds like a lot of work to have a yorkie party.That's great to be able to find a party for only yorkies. I see your from MI,I used to live in MI. Some of my family live in Dearborn.

OMG.... Heide and I have so many pics on our phone and FB of Gabby also.
