Welcome to YT! I enjoyed your story and yes, regardless of how we acquire our babies, we love them to pieces! You sound like a great mama and I can't wait to see pictures of your little "sheltie"!

Sweet story. Welcome!

I have 2 Shelties, 2 Yorkies and an Eskie.

I had wanted a Yorkie for years, but my husband didn't want a small dog. So about 13 years ago I 'settled' on a Sheltie with a second one following 2 years later. (The 4yr old Eskie has her own story!)

While they are all my babies, and smart, sweet, loveable animals, and I love each of them dearly, the Yorkies truly are special! They have so much personality and attitude! They have really captured my heart!

With my Shelties getting on in years, I finally got my first Yorkie this spring and the second one earlier this month. The fact that they're small , easy to handle and don't shed is just an added bonus!

Oh yeah, Welcome!

I so enjoyed your sweet story and just like your dog "union" was obviously meant to be...I think your finding this forum was as well!! Can't wait to see your pictures and hear more about you and your new love

A BIG warm welcome to you from my little bunch!!!

Welcome to YT! We have a Sheltie(Jilly), a Schnauzer(Tara), and a Yorkie (Olivia)here at my house. I love all our girls, but Jilly can be waaay too hyper for me sometimes. But if Lola would like an internet sheltie pal, she can get an account at www.dogster.com and ask Jilly to be friends! www.dogster.com/167545
You found a great website!

Congrats on the new baby.

Sounds like you made a good choice for both you and your husband!

You probably will be happier with your yorkie anyway, since you stressed that you just wanted company. It's been my experience that yorkies are more for laying on your lap...while shelties are play, play, play, run, run, run, play, play, play, play, play. Probably not a good choice if your husband didn't really want a dog in the first place.

A good friend of mine has a beautiful sheltie...and although I love her...I wouldn't want to live with her 24/7!

(the sheltie...not the friend)

I don't know how much you paid for your baby, but THAT is not the point of my post. The breeder should have helped with your vet bills!! The condition of the puppy does not affect how much we soon grow to love them, does it? They have a magic all their own and seem to put a spell on us hoomans.. I look forward to pics too...
