| New to YT & looking forward to getting to know ya'll Good evening everyone. I came upon this site a while back, acquired some very useful information, and find myself returning to the forum often enough to join the YT community A little about us... 17+ years ago my husband and I purchased a female yorkie puppy, Tanna, from a home/hobby breader. She was our baby before we had children, and lived 15 wonderful years with us. About a year ago I began the search to find another yorkie to join our family. I watched the local ads, petfinder, and other rescue sites closely; but I took a very unsettling conversation with a foster mom, as a sign that rescue wasn't for us. I checked local ads, visited breeders in their homes, and (last February) met a hobby breeder who (due to her husband's health and her own) was relocating and ready to part with some of her older furbabies. I fell in love with two of her females... That brings me to Tillie and Bella. Bella had one litter.. Tillie none.. I had them spayed asap. Soon to be three year old females (different moms, same dad), since the day I brought them home, they have followed me around like I've always been their mom. Getting to know their personalities has been a great experience, and they are already protective of our two children. We've had a few little bumps along the way, but we have meshed together well, and I feel blessed to have them as part of our family

| That is so awesome, they are so grateful, I got my Skip that's on my avatar from a young girl, who kept in a cage for 11 months, I picked him up at that age and he has never been in a cage since, It took him a while to look me in the eye, he would turn his little face, he now 3 years old, my little comedian, loves for me to chase him and he is the love of my life. |

| Great story ! i am a new member my self, i was actually introduced to the site by the breeder i got my puppy from. I am glad as i am learning a lot. So far i am reading more than interacting, can not figure out all of the site features yet but getting there with the help of some very friendly members with patience and kindness. Welcome and if you can figure it out maybe you can share pictures of your girls too. |
