Don't worry, there are plenty of macho guys like me who have Yorkies and who give them proper care. We're just not celebrities .

Both Tom Brady and Orlando Bloom with Yorkies are actually their wives pups Gisele's and Miranda's

At least they dared to walk with them
I know some guy how don't dare to walk with small dogs because they are "men". I find that so stupid!
My boyfriend loves Nena to death! He walks the both without any problem

When I rescued my yorkie I had no clue Tom Brady had one until afterwards. I was already in love with him but more so now LOL (don't tell my DH hahaha)

My hubby LOVES to take my Fletcher for car rides. Fletch LOVES the car and any trip is fine with him. Hubby takes him to the dump every weekend. He always comes back laughing that Fletch is fun to ride with! My hubby would take the boys anywhere, he says he's manly but luckily for me his definition of 'manly' is limited to trucks, sports and handyman stuff...

[Anny Mendoza]

That is a good definition of "manly"
I think every men should go by that definition

Seeing as how YT has over 200,000 members, how many celebs do you think are on here? If anyone has ever done a search on yorkies, this site is the first to come up. I bet there's a whole mess of celebs are here.

Isn't that picture of Ashley Tisdale from a movie and a YT member knew the Yorkie (s) who played the part of her dog?

I remember Joan Rivers saying that Spike basically saved her life after her husband died. She was never able to get another dog after Spike died because she loved him so much, no other dog could compare.....

I remember watching the TV show Green Acres, Lisa Douglas had a Yorkie. Does anyone remember its name?

LOL. That video was taken where I worked for 10 years! My husband still works there.

It sounds like he really cared for the yorkie, but was smart enough to realize he could not give her the attention she needed. I hope she is in a wonderful home now, it seems like he was serious about putting her in the proper home, have to give him the respect for that.

A friend and her husband always walk with their yorkies..I thought it was cute last summer when it was 100+ outside and he said they should take the stroller and he pushed it!! My husband thought I was quite insane when I brought a pink dog stroller home. He also informed me that he would NEVER be with me if I used it!!

Yes, we do have to look on the bright side--he couldn't take care of the Yorkie, so he tried to find a better home for her (although it might have been better had he gone through a shelter). I was hoping to find some followup to the story, but can't find any news about what happened after "Bae" was given away...
