Yorkie Talker | Introduction, from Marietta, GA! Hello! Myself and Madjester30 (whom you may also see post here) have adopted a Yorkie mix. We get to bring him home on Friday & we're ridiculously excited and a little nervous, but mostly excited. He'll be our first dog, together & the first either of us have had as adults. Hank is 9 months old & 11lbs. We've got toys, a bed, a cage/crate, a baby gate (to let my cats have a separate area), food & water bowls, food, training treats, regular treats, harness, leash, collar, tag, doggie face/paw wipes, a brush, and deodorizing cleaner for accidents. I think we bought out the store! LOL I can't wait to snuggle him on the couch, play with him, and take him with me on walks, to coffee shops, and everywhere else I can bring him. I'll update with pictures soon & I can't wait to learn from all of you! |

| Welcome, congratulations and prepare for the ride of your life with your new Yorkie mix. Pack your patience but you will soon learn that your little furball is extremely quick-witted, very smart and will out-think you most days. Read all you can about Yorkies and their needs. Enjoy your new baby!!!

Yorkie Talker | Thanks! Yes, we thought about shampoo, but bought the wipes for now, not sure if he'll like to be bathed or not & didn't want to add another possibly scary thing, right away. I did inquire with a groomer for prices/availability. |

| Welcome to Yorkie Talk. Congratulations on your first "fur kid". Sounds like you have all the essentials, and it will be so exciting to just hang out with him and bond. Good luck, I hope it all goes well, and we will look forward to seeing pics and hearing stories about him when you get time.
