| Decisions, Decisions Today we go and pick our yorkie. they are from 2 different litters. 1 is 3lbs 9 weeks old this week and the 2nd is 4lbs..12 1/2 weeks old. I narrowed it down to these 2 cuz the others were too small..that scares me...when they are2lbs..too tiny for me. I read that some people think its too early to take away from mum b4 10 weeks at least..I dont think this will be an issue. my question is..how did u select your yorkie babe? did u just "know"..did the pup pick u? i havent been able to sleep the closer we get to our new addition...i have taken pics..hopefully i can post them..i still need a crate,comb and bowls(today). the pet pen was a "snap" to set up..gotta practice putting it down!!! my cat is looking at the set up..like wtf?? she keeps trying to look at the stand in stuffed yorkie..lol..the real deal should be interesting.

| I always pick my puppy by their little personality. And sometimes the looks or coloring as well. I think you just know which one is right for you. |

| ok where'd ya get the pet pen! Choco here needs one, so i can tote him from room to room when I need to clean house! He is too young and curious to be trusted and I don't want to put him in his kennel. Good luck picking a pup, be sure to post pics when you can.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I didn't have a choice with Cali she was the last one, With Gracie the one I had before Cali, there were 4 in the litter, 2 girls 2 boys. I knew I wanted a girl and when we walked in and sat on the floor they were all crazy and wild except for Gracie. She just crawled up into my lap. I took her. She was the sweetest little thing. I look for personality and then the look I like. Good luck I think you will know. You could just get both so you don't have to decide!!

I ordered it from Petsmart.com on Tuesday!!!it came quickly!! i was worried it wouldnt make it in time. I called the stores in my area and none had a pen in stock so i decided to order.i am gonna try to see if i can bring it upstairs..without pup in it of course!! I decided on this style versus all the others i have seen...it can walk in and out and i can wash and disenfect it. i will DEFINETLY post a pic..we decided on the name KENYON...i believe its Old English.

| I would judge by the parents that I like the best. It seems like I'm always drawn to longer nose puppies, but as an adult I like the shorter noses. I also would take the parent's coat quality into consideration. |

| It looks like whichever one you pick, they'll sure have lots of great stuff! Good luck, and let us know who you bring home!

| We made a selection!! :-) Well folks..it all went well. We played with the 2 pups..we got along better with the one that was my favorite..his face is precious..his coat is divine and he already comes to me when I call!!!! When I started calling him Kenyon he tilted his head as if to say," are you talking to me?" It was adorable. I picked the larger and older of the 2 Will have pics soon enough..i was so excited I forgot to take my digital cam out. I will be busy running and getting last minute stuff like litter boxes and a crate...so i wont have pics until later tomorrow afternoon
