Describe your love for your dear yorkie (s)... - Page 3 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Winston's Mom · 03-30-2007, 10:50 AM

I don't have skinkids, Winston and Maggie have filled that void in me. They fill up make my life with such love and joy. I can never wake up or go to sleep mad/sad/upset because they both make me so happy. I think of them all the time at work and when I am away. Just think about life without them makes me cry.

I love all of you because you all understand what it is like to have a Yorkie. We are so blessed!

Chachi and Jewels are My babies. I love to make them happy. It makes My heart melt when they give me kisses or curl up next to me. I even love their cute little barks. I couldnt imagine My life without them.

I love the way she has to sit on my lap in the car, but mommy wants her to be safe and not to do that........

I love the way she greets me at the door, and always makes me smile.

I love the way she lets me brush her, and it's our cuddle/bonding time.

I love love LOVE her in so many ways.........she is my love and my life.

Only a yorkie lover could really understand

I AGREE WITH YOU AND MY KISSIE IS MY BABY. I ADORE HER...

Reading all your posts..... seeing how all you wonderful people love your precious little Yorkies, from the little teacups to the lovable "Porky Yorkies", makes me want to share for the first time about my little guy Tigger. It's very hard for me, because I cannot even talk about him without feeling like my heart will break all over again...

I had him for 13 amazing years. He had just the sweetest nature and bounced his happy bounce all his life (like Winnie the Pooh's pal), until he suddenly fell ill in late August 2006 with kidney disease. His health declined so rapidly, I felt like him (and I) had been run over with a giant steam roller. I had him at the vet every 48 hours like clockwork, to ensure he was hydrated and to confirm that above all, he was not suffering. For 2 months, I nursed him, held him, cried over him and held him some more. I kept asking the vet... please just give me one more day, one more week with him.... and then maybe, I will be ready to let him go. All the time that Tig's doctor assured me he was not suffering, I treasured him. comforted him. You see, I did not want him to go to Yorkie heaven in the cold confines of a vetenary hospital. I did not even want him to go in his sleep, in case he might be alone. I wanted him to go with my arms around him, soothing and easing his journey. That is all I wanted.

After 8 weeks of this, I left him for just one hour on ONE night. He could still go out his little doggie door, into what I thought was his VERY sheltered little pet run. He was taken by a Hawk.... my precious little boy, after his very brave battle, after his Mommy did everything and anything to make his departure safe, nurturing and loving... he was taken so brutally by that horrid creature.
It was like that bird clawed out my heart. My husband tried to comfort me, he said that it was God's way of taking a terrible decision out of my hands. I do not agree. My utterly defenseless fragile little boy did not deserve such an ending.

I grieved for him, what seemed like an endless amount of time. His little galpal Spanky, I though would simply die of grief. She was always the "Porky Yorkie", gobbling anything in sight. She wilted to a fraction of her size in a matter of days. My husband tried so hard to comfort us both, poor thing.... always asking me what would make it better. I had no answer for him.

In February this year, he brought home my little Mango. She will never replace Tigger, but watching her in all her demented puppy glory, makes that pang less hurtful. Spanky is still grumpy around her and pretends to not notice her, but once again, she is my old Porky Yorkie, appetite fully restored. Trust one precious Yorkie baby to mend at least two broken hearts. That tiny little creature is like a huge miracle, giving us the power to heal........

I just want to add one more thing.... I wish more than anything that I had found YorkieTalk while my Tigger was ill. Only another Yorkie lover could have understood the depths of my desperation to heal him and the terrible sadness and anger I had at his departure......

patty58 · 04-03-2007, 05:52 AM

OK, I am medicated!! and I hardly ever cry, but your story brought back memories of my beloved cocker, Kinzee. I also vowed that he would not suffer and I kept that promise but it broke my heart. I could not even think of getting another dog. My grown kids wanted to immediately get me another dog. Finally after about 6 months my son and his wife brought Murfee to me. It was love at first sight. I will always love my Kinzee but my Murfee is my life now....next to my grandkids. I feel your pain. Thank you for the post because it brought back wonderful memories of Kinzee and all the love that I had for him. Only REAL animal lovers know that feeling.

Diego · 04-03-2007, 06:02 AM

I have unconditional love for my little rescued Yorkies . I respect the way they are . Those little ones had horrible stories behind them and if I see they are happy , my heart is full of joy .Here is an example :

Frimousse was only 2 years when she arrived here , she already have been placed 6 times . Her story said that she was very aggressive . I never saw a manifestation of aggresiveness but she was really shy . She was always hiding under the bed . 10 days ago , she came to me and gave me lots of kisses . I started to tell her how she was wonderful . I am very proud of her .

cheyenne2000 · 04-03-2007, 08:35 AM

I can't even begin to say how much my babies mean to me. I twisted my knee Sunday nite and have to use crutches for a while, well Shooter is afraid of them

so I don't use them at home. You should me hopping around the house LOL!!!!

Sawyers mommy · 04-03-2007, 09:52 AM

sawyer is everything to me. I have 5 children, grown now; and they call at least once a day; but they have their own lives, I have Sawyer. I have 8 grandchildren that I would give my life for. They all love me, but as each gets older, they spend less and less time with me, and more with their friends, as they should. Sawyer is the last thing I see at night, and the first I see in the morning. To say I love him is just not enough. Our fur babies will never have a life too full for us, or grow so mature that we are not the greatest thing in their world; we will always be their world, and they are ours.

Looking at my boy is like seeing a blue sky for the first time, and it always will be.

I didn't know how to answer this question until I had a scare last night. To me the love for my dogs is indescribable. Now I can. Last night Queequeg was in a "flying" mood again and on her way down she smacked her head into the metal leg of my computer desk on her way down and let out a scream. I've never been soo scared of losing something in my life. She's been checked out and is fine. I'll just never forget the feeling I had when she cried. It was as if time stopped and I just wanted and needed to know that she was alright. If I ever lost her I don't what I'd do. She's brought so much joy and peace to my life. It sounds corny but she's taught me so much about myself. I can only hope and pray that I can make her as happy as she makes me everyday. When I look at her little face when she's giving me the "loverly" look or when she's sleeping on my lap.....I just feel at peace and so happy. I feel this way with all of my girls but there is just something about my Yorkie that is different. She is so amazing and I am so grateful and honored to have her in my life.

Ozzie'sperson · 04-03-2007, 01:57 PM

All these tributes to "fallen" Yorkies say it really well. I dread the day it comes to that for my Ozzie.

We've ALWAYS had every kind of animal imaginable (from a field mouse to a box turtle to cats and dogs of many varieties) in my house. Even had another Yorkie years ago. I really loved many of these creatures, in fact almost ALL of them, but never like this.

He is almost without fail the first face I see in the morning (usually licking me to indicate that he needs down to go potty) and the last one I see at night.

This little guy really IS my companion. Maybe it's because with the possible exception of when there is food in the room, it's all about ME. Where am I? What am I doing? Why can't I stop that and just pick him up/play with him/chase him? He's so possessive that if he were a man -- and not so darned cute -- I'd probably LEAVE him.

That's not corny...it's sweet and we understand!!!!

MY pups are my babies and my best friends. I do for them befor myself. I cannot imagine a life without them. I am a nurturer and they fill the void.
