How long did it take to REALLY love them?

[Zeus' Mom]

I fell in love with Zeus the minute I saw his pic and then when I met him, it was all over, he had me wrapped around his little paw! That little boy has brought so much joy to my life. I couldn't imagine what life would be like without him.

Straight away here too. She came waddling, (just eaten), down the little corridor and paid no attention to the 4 strangers in her way! When I held her and looked at her cute little face I knew there was no point going to see anymore puppies, she was the one. She cried abit in the car but when she got home she wandered round the room without a care... she's naughty, into everything, playful, stubborn and a real pain at times.... but then she's loving, cuddly and a Mummy's Girl... Typical Yorkie!

I fell in love with them the moment I saw them. I remember the lady opening her door and my eyes went right past her to the little puppy in the playpen behind her I didnt even think and walked right past her picked up the puppy and said OMGOSH this is mine. She laughed, when I think back on it I think how crazy that must of seemed, I didnt even know if that was the puppy that she was selling. lol But She talks about it from time to time and said she knew I was going to be the pefect mommy This was my little Mickey
With Minnie it was the same only I had to wait for the Breeder to get back from the vets. She ha dthe whole litter with her but as soon as I saw all the puppys I picked my Minnie up and knew she was the one.

Ok here's the rundown on my 4 angels:

CODIE
I fell in love with Codie the second I saw him. When hubby and I went to pick out a dog, I swore up and down that I strictly only wanted a girl. I kept telling hubby not to try and talk me into getting a boy because I wanted a girl ONLY, period, end of discussion. So anyway, when we first walked in, I played with a few girl pupies and they were cute but I didn't feel a spark. Then I spotted my Codie across the room and practically shouted out loud, "I want THAT dog! I don't care what the sex is!!" And from then on the rest is history. Codie is my soulmate. He's the absolute love of my life. I can't imagine living without him.

KATIE
Katie was love at first sight too. She was truly a special little girl. We were extremely close. She loved her daddy and always kissed and cuddled with him but we had a special relationship. She NEEDED me. She felt safe with me. My Katie was such a beauty and so gentle. Now she's a beautiful angel at the Rainbow Bridge. Not a day goes by when I don't think about her and miss her with all my heart.

TIA
Hubby bought me Tia soon after I lost my Katie and my mother. Part of me wanted another dog but another part of me didn't (I felt torn and guilty because of my love for Katie -- I didn't want to replace her). When Tee Tee first came home, I loved her but I wasn't IN LOVE with her. Then that same night, she got VERY sick and we almost lost her. I stayed up with her all week and pretty much every night that week to take care of her and we really bonded. It was during that time of holding her all night long that I fell in love with her. She's such an incredible little girl. She really helped me cope with the loss of my mom and Katie. I thank god every day for giving her to me during that dark time in my life.

CALI
As most of you know, I found Cali through a breeder here on YT. I fell instantly in love with her PICTURE lolol. But then when I flew out to California to pick up her and bring her home, I was TERRIFIED of her because she was so freakin tiny! My fear of hurting her held me back from falling totally in love with her because I was constantly afraid to hold or even touch her. Hubby was so NOT afraid and held her all the time in the beginning. But after I got over that initial fear, we really bonded. Now you can't pry her out of my arms! I think her tiny size is so endearing and it makes me always want to shelter and protect her. She has the cutest little bark.

I can really and truly say and I'm in love with all my babies. They are a true blessing and I thank god every day for entrusting me with their care and love.

Me and Windor's Mom had been looking for pups at reasonable prices and came across a newspaper ad that had just lowered them a little because they were going on a cruise within a week. I knew I didn't need one but we went, and I was hoping the entire time I wouldn't like them and could keep my money! The breeder opened the door to her house and I saw them, turned around to my truck to get my checkbook! So, love at first sight! we both bought one (2 sisters)!

[Bama Yorkie Mom]

I fell in love with Kizzy and Maggie as soon as I saw them and held them.

[JESSY_RN2B]

Honestly, I feel in LOVE the day I saw his picture on YT. After that, each day it grew and grew. When he arrived, it was surreal.............all bliss. Today, I love him more than ever. Of course, I love the poodle and cat as much. Just that each one has a special place in my heart

[ARCHIE]

I went looking for a little girl and fell instantly in love with Buddy!
He was pretty big next to the others and so chubby and soft.(14 1/2 wks
6.5lbs.)
He did not connect with me. Would not make eye contact at all he just
wanted to get back in his crate! Poor thing did not know anything else I
suppose when I look back now. I bought him on the spot. I know I was
very lucky not knowing a thing about Yorkies except I like the looks,
they did not shed and I am a fan of the terrior. He threw up on me on
the way home and we have been attached at the hip since he came home.

I looked at about six or seven the day I got Horatio. I really wanted a girl again and they only had one and she was too expensive for my budget. Horatio was in a cage alone because he was three pounds and the others were under three. Because of this he was also the leat expensive. My girl had passed away four months before and I needed another Yorkie. I could not go one more day without one so I took him. He was very cute and sweet...but, it took me about two weeks before I actually could say I loved him. Now, he's my everything and I love him to pieces.
