Why are you paranoid about taking her out? Sassy loves to go out. She knows the signs of me getting ready to go (usually, putting shoes on...I am a barefoot person) and is at the door yipping at me to "Hurry up, let's go!!" I bought her that high seat from GW Little so she can see everything outside. I don't let anyone touch her, but I do enjoy all the comments. Just like I did when I took my granddaughter out, because she was exceptional as well.

Sassy is a good girl in the van. If I have to go in a store that she isn't allowed, I leave her on her seat and constantly check on her. Like Starbucks to get a coffee...I can see her through the windows and she does great. The only places that she doesn't like to go is the VET and places that look like it might be the VET If I think I can get away with taking her in somewhere, I just hold her. Even my podiatrist office. They love her there.

Try it! You will probably come to love it, too. Maybe not the first few times but when you see how much she enjoys it, you will want to take her more.

My family thinks I have gone crazy and I told them that is what happens when your husband works 80 hours a week and you have a teenager that has a drivers lisence. I was lonely and I got Hannah for company...its better than having an affair...lol

hahahahahahaha I AGREE !! my husband is sick and the girls are the reason he smiles now - it IS better than having an affair and no one will love us like they do

Oh, how I've changed!! It didn't take long looking at all these cute little pups and searching web sites to find such cute stuff we just HAD to have it. And becoming educated on harnesses rather than collars meant we needed even more!!

I also never thought I'd even think about a 2nd one, let alone long for one and then plan and plan!! With my occupation (yoga & pilates instructor) I have early morning classes and work most evenings, so I'm home during the day. My kids are grown and out of the house and on the occasional week night that I don't teach, the hubby is usually doing work on the computer. My pups have been my salvation. My kids refer to them as their replacements!!

I do, however need to get the VISA bill under control or I'll be joining you all on the street corner!! I don't work less, but I do keep my daytime classes to a minimum to spend as much time as possible with my girls!!

In the photo on your avatar, you don't look like you are old enough to have kids grown and out of the house!!

How many of you sneak it home and put it away before anyone else sees another new baby buy? Hmmmm? This is the one thing that makes me glad to live alone. No one to sit in judgement of my spending on her. LOL But I can imagine what it would have been like. I would probably have Yorkie stash in all the closets.

Oh, I am in a big trouble now..... I just bought small carrier at Target about a week ago (cheap one) and I just saw something prettier on Sunday at the mall so of course I bought it!!! I am sooo broke I may have to pick up more weekend shift just to cover the cost for my preciouse baby girl!!! lol
So what I'm doing now is I've been eating canned soup for lunch!!!
It cost me only $.50 a day!!!
I rather eat cheap food and spend money for my Momiji!!!

Brandi loves to go out......and I love to walk her.......but I'm afraid someone will try to grab her away from me.......Sunday I went to Petco.....and this sketchy looking guy came over and said "can I pet her" and I said sure......and then he's like kissing her.....I was so freaked out he was going to try to follow me to my car.....I considered calling my son (he's a cop) to come meet me.....then I just put her inside my coat buttoned it up and walked to the car (FAST) and got in and locked the doors......do I sound nuts? I'm not really LOL

You should have said no. She's allergic to human males. LOL

I know I would have had to say no, honestly. How big is Brandy?

I really don't know what I was thinking letting him near her......but I didn't wanna seem like a snob.......Brandi is 4 lbs 13 oz now.....

I do know how you feel. I am a very protective person myself. I used to drive my grandsons crazy. I remember the first time my eldest grandson insisted on going to the men's room alone when he was about five years old. I could see the door from where I sat and so I finally gave in and let him go. Pretty soon, I was hanging out by the door there and was ready to go in after him when he came out. I was getting weird looks from the guys that were coming out. I told him that was the last time. He took to long and scared me too much. He didn't understand. *sigh* I am glad not to be raising children in this time. It seems like there are a lot more crazies now than ever.

I WAAAAAY over buy for Jaden and Jewelina! Sometimes it makes me question my sanity when I look at their wardrobes, carriers and accesories I love for them to weath matching clothes so I'm always wanting two of everything! Luckily for me I have a good paying job and no one to grumble over what I buy. I always say if its my money, I can do what I want with it!

Your baby is Georgeous too!

and Yes, GUILTY! I'm a Yorkie Over-Spender! But so is Dan!
