| Vets I finally got a Yorkie after not having a dog for 40 years. Why did I wait so long? Anyway, are all vets available if a pet gets sick in the middle of the night? I will ask about my vet, but it is Sat., and the office is closed. Just curious. Thanks. Kate |

| No not all vets have 24 hr service. On mine if its after hours they refer you on their answering machine to a 24 hour clinic.

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Congratulations on getting a new puppy !! I have the same answer as Chachi - In a city like Houston we have 24 hour emergency clinics - if you need your vet after hours - they refer you on the recording - When I got Chanel I had already looked at all the pet hospitals in my area and it was a good thing because we ended up in one the first week over coccidia - so you're really smart to be asking this |

| I asked my vet about this and then went to the 24 hour hospital so I would know exactly where it is - I'm bad with directions on a good day.

| I guess you could say I cheated because I got out of training a puppy as Sadie came to me just a few months shy of being 3 years old. I never got another one until now because I get too torn up when I lose a pet. I also am one of these people who plans my entire life around a dog when I get it, and this is not always good. But, my parents live next door to me, and Sadie has a second home so I can come and go pretty much and she will have a good place to crash. I just love this dog so much. My neighbors probably think I have flipped out. LOL Sadie loves to be brushed, wear bows/berets in her topknot, and just in general she loves it all. She even likes to wear sweaters. I had it on her just once as we had a cold day last week, so now I know she will wear them when the cold weather comes. My 86 year old neighbor does not like dogs, so he is getting a real show as he looks right at my house. LOL Kate Quote:
