| Life before your yorkie? What was your life like before you got your yorkie(s)?!? I can barely remember . I've only had Sophia for a bit over a year, and Brody for much less! I remember being bored a lot & having more $ in my bank account... but that's about all I can remember! Now my life just revolves around these dogs & I wouldn't have it any other way. I can honestly say I don't get bored anymore , and I'd gladly give up all of my $ to have these pups. My life has changed so much for the better. It's amazing how much love these dogs have to give and I'm so fortunate to have both of them. I get so sad thinking about what my life would be like without them. ... so what do you remember about your life before your yorkie?!?

| The question is "Is there life before a Yorkietalk?" Just kidding. Mrs. Beasley is over ten, my oldest grandson was 4 months old when she came into our lives. She is as much a part of the g-kids lives as she is ours. They expect me to take her to their ball games. Mrs. Beasley has been a great addition to our family.

| I had more money, no dog clothes, no bows, and I didn't home cook for any of our dogs. What I didn't have before I got my Yorkies was two precious girls to give me kisses each morning, a greeting committee when I come home, the joy of hearing their paws running through the house playing, and all the love they bring. I have all this now. My girls have filled this void.

| After my Shih Tzu passed away I decided I was never going to have another dog so I spent many months without one. One day it dawned on me that this was just no way to live! When I went to pick up Gracie I was all excited about getting a puppy. On the way home I was thinking, "What the heck have I gotten myslef into??" That was the last negative thought I had about this little girl. She has given me a few challanges but she has been well worth working though them. She is just the best little girl I could have gotten. |

| Aww Sarah I feel the same way about Luma. I sometimes will think of this and ask the bf, what would we be doing right now if we didn't have Luma? We've only had her three months...THAT seems ABSURD!!! I can't believe my little girl has only been in the world half a year. I love her so muxh, and we didn't see getting a yorkie as making a sacrifice. She just made our life even better. Without her, I wouldn't have explored College Station and found the dog park, a place we ennjoy going to just as much as Luma does. Without her we wouldn't know the lovely woman who bred her. Without her we wouldn't be as close of a couple as we are now. And I wouldn't have any of you! *Shudder* what a bleak world lol!!

| Good morning all! Life before Harry.....hmmmm!!! VERY quiet! Much TOO quiet!! We too lost our Rosie labrador a few years back - and I said "never again" due to the heartbreak, and thinking we could never go through that again, just couldn't bear it. But time does soften and heal, and bitter tears turn into happy, unforgettable memories... So anyway, I was a childrens Nanny, but gave it up a couple of years ago as my parents are now elderly and need a lot of care...however the rest of the time seemed so empty and quiet and dull - Andy working all the hours and my kids have left home....so then came Harry!!! And he's actually done my parents the world of good too - another aspect to their lives... Fortunately England's VERY dog-friendly on the whole, I don't know of a country pub with great food in our area that doesn't take dogs, for instance, so Harry's just kind of slotted in with exactly what we used to be doing - but made every moment of every day a million times better...

| I was never home and party party party all the time. Now if the boys can't come I am not going and I have a few drinks when we go out but nothing that would cloud my ability or judgement as I have to always be aware of my boys. Can't believe but they have changed so much about my life and I couldn't be happier |

| My life before Georgie involved a lot more being out and about and a lot less being at home. I personally love the latter I feel like he definitely prepared me for motherhood. As a puppy we had sleepless nights, accidents and playtime at 1am He has brought so much joy to our lives and my husband and I love him to pieces!

| Thanks for sharing, Everyone. Personally, in a short phrase, there was less love. Tatiana brings a large measure of love and heart-warming to my life. She's a gift from God, as far as I'm concerned. |
