I know it will all be worth it when I have my Twix. I want a black and brown one and already have the name as Twix even though I am sure that will change LOL!

Love Twix the name and the candy. Just a heads up they all start out black and brown but their coat does change as they get older so be prepared for the possibility of a Twix with a silver coating.

Hello and Welcome to YorkieTalk!

Glad you found us and looking forward to getting to know you better.

YorkDaddy · 05-06-2011, 02:18 PM

Thank you again for all the welcomes!
@ Buster Brown....I HOPE that Twix will turn silver too. I love when they are black, brown, and silver! We can match...I have 2 "silver" hairs as well that I've had since I was 25!

Welcome to YT Jay, this is a great place to get all questions answered. Best of luck in searching for your Yorkie.

Hmm a considerate and thoughtful man, a sense of humor, distinguished silver hairs. YorkDaddy I have a feeling you are going to be quite popular on YT.

Make certain that puppy-proofing includes electric cords, etc.

Welcome to YT.

YorkDaddy · 05-08-2011, 12:19 PM

Stop that...I'm shy and you are making me blush lol!

Thank you again for the welcome and advice!! Very much appreciated. I am moving a little sooner than I thought (HOPEFULLY) *fingers crossed* to a home with a backyard now instead of a balcony so I am very happy about that.

Now I have to find my Yorkie sooner...but everyone is going for around $1000+ and I can't do that....ouch! I found one who was charging $400 but it seemed to be all about the money, she couldn't answer any questions and basically had a buy the dog now and find out the answers on your own type of attitude. NO DEAL!!!

Anybody in SC, NC, or ATL know a reasonably priced loving/caring breeder?

Welcome YorkieDaddy!
I agree with what the others have said -- I think it is all about the breeder -- part of my great success with my Yorkie was the support and vast knowledge that was shared by the breeder. I still contact her for advice.

Take your time -- don't be in too much of a hurry -- this relationship will last for many years and you need to be sure to have a good one!

The folks on this site are awsome and I have learned sooooo much from all of them!
