Donating YT 11K Club Member | Do people ask you this? Sometimes when I am walking Teddy and London people I am familiar with but don't really know actually ask me if they can have London. When they do that I think they are joking and some are so i just laugh it off and say no way but i think some people are actually serious 'cause they ask me again. I mean what in their right mind makes them think I will give them my London?? At least 5 people have asked me this in my neighborhood, it's so annoying. And 2 of those people were complete strangers. And they only ask for London 'cause she is "little and cute", well she is but there's nothing wrong with Teddy Anyway does this happen to you??

| A few do, but I think they are only joking.

BANNED! | It happens to me also and I hate it. I don't understand how people can expect you to just say ok I will give one of my kids away,lol...Are these people nuts or what??? They wouldn't just give away their skin kids, so why do the expect we would do it with our furkids. |

| Maybe they think you are a breeder, the other day my hubby was walking Phoebe and he hear one girl telling the other one, oohh how cute we should steal, this puppy, I told my hubby maybe they were joking, my hubby said he doesn't think so, boy my hubby was and he doesn't get mad easy, he is a tall guy, I don't walk my Phoebe alone never only with him and my pepper spray |

| Kinda off topic, but the question I get asked the most (and I am sure you do to since you have two as well) is "Are they related?"

| I get that too. Sometimes as a joke, and sometimes seriously. The worst was the time that this girl kept on trying to give me her number in case I needed to give him away someday.

| I work in dog boutique/grooming salon and always have Lacy at work with me. We don't sell any animals at the store...just clothing, accessories, and specialty items. My boss and I usually have our yorkies running around behind the counter. Sometimes people ask if they're for sale. Nope..they're ours (and we don't sell animals). A lot of customers talk to Lacy when they come in as well and I've heard some people say to her, "Do you want to come home with me?." One guy kindof freaked me out one time. He was really really strange and from out of town...like there was just something off about him. He came in and bought some cans of dog food and walked around the store. He kept buying a few things at a time...paying each time..then deciding to buy more. Well then he was going to leave but he starts talking to Lacy and saying, "Oh I bet you want to come live out in the country with me and be a country dog and stuff like that." He then starts to walk out of the store but then just stops and stares over at us...kindof freaked me out...I was glad when he left. A lot of people come in the store and say they want a dog like her and that she's so cute and all. By the way - I want to steal London ;-) Just kidding but she's Adorable!!! I haven't seen any pictures of Teddy i don't think, but I saw the ones you posted of London today. Plus - everytime I see you post about her it makes me want a puppy even worse because I have planned to name my next baby London for like 1 1/2 years now! I was so excited when I joined YT and saw a yorkie named London! I love that name and I think it would go well with Lacy
