Yorkie Doodle Dandy Spring break is over and I've tiredly prodded myself back to my college classes. Well, I actually found motivation in an unexpected corner! In history we are studying WWII, and I was delighted that our professor mentioned the Yorkie Doodle Dandy story! Basically it's the story of a 4lb yorkie named Smokie, who ended up being considered a WWII hero. I rushed home and looked up all I could find on the Internet, and learned a lot about my current topic in history along the way, lol. Thanks to Smokey I'm confident I'll ace the next test. :) |
It always helps to study yorkies in class.:) This is the story about Smokey, if anyone else is interested: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoky_(dog) |
I teach Jr. high history and I tell my students the story. They all know about my love for Yorkies (Mrs. Beasley). |
There is also a book, written by her "owner," William Wynne, you can order it from Amazon: |
I saw, and ordered the book! Lol, my husband will kill me, he thinks I spend way too much on books. :) Especially since I buy for my Ipad too, hehe. I think that makes a total of 3 Yorkie Books that should be coming home any day now. :D |
