Be Honest, Do You Like To Show Off Your Yorkie!

[chachi]

I definitely like showing off my yorkies. I like dressing them up and takin g them out. They are so cute and always get alot of attention. I lie dressing My 5 year old girl cute so they are just like a couple more children to me.

Oh my gosh yes !! I love my little sweetie ! I love showing her off....people are amazed at how small she is :-)

[mustangbee]

Oh yes, I love to take Princess everywhere!!!! She's my baby girl!!!! People always stop to say hi to her. We love to walk around the Mall in her Pink Stroller.

Of course, she's so pretty and very well behaved.
I took her to an auction the other night and right in the middle of the auction the auctioneer over the loud speaker pointed to Jasmine and jokingly asked if I wanted to sell that dog. I of course said No. He said "I'll bet you could get a lot of money out of her." I told him she was priceless and no amount of money could buy her. He said "I don't blame you, that's how it should be."



I love my Jasmine & the boys.

We take ours on walks from spring to fall. We love showing them off as well as we think it's important to keep them socialized that way. The more people and different things our yorkies come in contact with the more comfortable we feel that they can tolerate anyone and any situation.
When nikita was alive i'm sure we drew quite a few crazy stares though..a pit bull 2 yorkies and a big mixed breed dog..lol

I know we all love the compliments we get when we take our little dogs out.

But - let's remember - other dog get a lot of attention also. Whenever I go to Petco, there are few dogs in that store (large or small) that don't get a lot of attention.

My friend has a beautiful standard poodle, and he says he can't go for a walk without being stopped constantly by people who want to visit with his dog....not with him - with his dog!

Dogs are great. I enjoy seeing different breeds and mixed breeds out and around.

I love taking my little ones out with me. In fact they went to their very first baseball game yesterday. My brother was starting pitcher so we couldn't miss that important moment. It was funny because he plays high school ball and of course when I showed up with my little ones all the little girls were like that's the kind of dog I want. If they only knew how much work it is I don't think they'd want one. They are just like an actual kid. People just compliment both of the pups everytime we are out around town. Harley just can't get enough of them Lexi on the other hand I think wished for a more private lifestyle.

Sometimes it's fun, and I know it's good for Shelby.

Sometimes it's embarrassing. I am not used to being noticed and I sort of hate it.

I think I would have picked a breed that turned less heads if I wanted a dog I could walk around with and not get noticed..... Boy that sounds bad!

But really! Its hours of grooming! Its an expencive breed to start with, Their up keep, and clothing costs are sky high! Their shoe collection can compare to yours! And when it comes to hair products, theirs take up just as much room under the sink as yours do and cost just as much!

If the people who stopped us and poo pooed over our pups really knew what it takes to keep our little darlings so lovely.... ugh...

Of course its for the attention! .... From the dogs that is....... I just love pixie kisses!

[JeanieK]

You bet I do. They are natural show stoppers and you don't see all that many of them, at least not around here. Many people dont even know what kind they are. I've never taken one out dressed up. That would be fun.

[BabyFidgette]

Me? Heck no! That's so rude to push your dog onto someone else. Oh, hey, take a look at my new pics of Baby

[londonteatime]

Honestly? I like the attention but it scares the heck out of me because I'm worried someone will try to steal him. It happens all of the time down here -- I live near the Border. I've had two other dogs stolen -- a guy broke into my house specifically to steal the dogs! Nothing else was gone! I got an alarm system installed after that.

Soooooo, none of my neighbors know I have a Yorkie and I want to keep it that way. Neighbors saw my bulldog when we were going to the vet and I actually had strange people showing up at my door to ask me if I wanted to sell her. It worries me.

I have to admit when I see a pit bull I can't hardly keep myself from going up for a pet or two. I think they are a beautiful breed. I know there is alot of controversy about this breed but these people didn't know my nikita she was as gentle as a newborn lamb and so beautiful. I miss her. Anyway so snowwa your right it's not just yorkies that draw attention. They are all beautiful in one way or another if you ask me.

Vivi always attracts attention...my daughter says it is like travelling with a celebrity. Vivi loves it and so do we !!!!

[StewiesMom]

I love my dog and I am proud of him, but I am either mortified or annoyed when people stop me to talk about teacups, asking who his breeder is or wanting to pet him. I guess I am just used to walking my Lab mix. No one gave her a second look even though she was 1000x smarter and more friendly toward strangers than Stewie - I guess she just wasn't as "cute" and "trendy" so she didn't get oohh'd over.

I love showing off pics of him at work or school. I have a ton I also email pics to friends and family once a week - like he's my child
