Ditto!

I ususally tear up when my pups leave. People ask me if I'm ready to give up the puppy..hahaha..just like Pat said, they are our kids and always will be!!

That's what I love about my breeder. She has made it clear that if there is any problem, day or night to call her. She almost sounds like she'd be mad if I didn't!! Just knowing that she was (and is) always available to me made me feel so comfortable from buying from her...

Mercy me!! These babies are our family members and they go to homes where they are also considered family. Please do not contact a responsible breeder and have "How much are your puppies?" as your first question..
The Yorkshire Terrier magazine for Oct/Nov has some of the best info on our breed..
We are a passionate bunch and as I have felt before, on some things we have to agree to disagree. That can be a good, or bad, thing..
My question would be "Can you imagine your life without your baby?" If the answer is, "I can"t" then the price you paid was the right one for you.
