Welcome! Kirby is a little doll...makes me want to just squeeze the little fluff butt:D He's adorable!

There's a link at the top of the YT website that says "Donations" right under the banner! I like having a big avatar! haha

Welcome to YT! Kirby is a cutie pie:D My niece has a Morkie Olivia and she is a doll!

Kirby is a doll, please don't let the groomer change him to much, he looks so cute the way he was. My last male was named Kirby, after all they are cute little vacuum cleaners, if I got a second I always said I would name him Hoover.

On the posting thing, I really wish they would explain this better to newbies. But until you have a certain amount of posts they hold some of your posts from being seen. So you might type a post and then it will not show up right away, but then 10 hours later it will show up right in the place you typed it. This is very annoying when you are trying to answer someones questions. It is especially bad in the sick and injured section when the newbie is trying to deal with a health scare. I love YT but this is something they do that seems to hinder new members more than it does save us from trolls and trouble makers, but hey what do I know it's not my forum, so I don't make the rules:D Welcome to Yorkie Talk and once you get over this temporary hurdle, you will love it.

Gosh he is handsome. Welcome to you and Kirby.

aww thankyou! He does have a fluff butt for sure!
Olivia would be such a adorable name if he were a girl! I might have stole it on ya!:D
Yours is such a dollface too!
Ohh those groomers:mad:, don't even let me get started. I would never be so angry or frustrated with the groomers at out local petsmart if the case were they were extremely friendly, and just did not do their job right. But they are miserable, cranky know-it-alls , who don't do the job right, first and onlytime just because I got a coupon.First of all to his kirby's horror i do brush him every day with a licking brush (as gentle as i can be) we were sort ofplaying innthe brush beforehand but he got a bur in his coat, i tried getting it outand did, but figured hey i am bringing him to the groomers anyways to get brushed and washed. Now I don't knowif it's because I looked kinda like a paris hilton that day, with my flashy clothes on, hair and makeup all did, andthese girls all in their 20's like me were in their scrubs, thought I was just a ditz that didn't know a thing about how to look after a dog (funny thing is a just graduated to be a vet assistant) were very rude,asked if he had his shots (rude) when i said he had they looked at me as if they didn't beleive me. Just very rude, iwon't be going back there.
