LOL... I can laugh about it now but at the time is wasnt quite so humourous.

Especially since it was 5:00 in the morning and I had to get out of bed and give her a bath.

YorkieTime07, I totally agree with you. That is me to a TEE! and I am sure we have lots of company here on YT ....

my babies' clothing budget is higher than mine.... But they look so cute.

we are all guilty of loving our babies so much!

You know your husband loves Your Yorkie when he buys a life jacket for her so she can go on the boat, and HIS dog (a retriever) isn't allowed on the boat.

You know you love your Yorkie when you make her salmon for dinner.

I'm new to the site but love that we all do the same things with our Yorkies!!

You know you love your yorkie when you are out shopping or dining and you can't wait to get back home to see them....

You know you love your yorkie when you let them sniff the cork that comes out of your wine bottle! Emma LOVES the smell of red wine-she can hear a cork pop across the house, and comes running!

CO_yorkie_momma · 07-06-2007, 09:55 PM

You know you love your yorkie when you have hundreds of pictures of them and dont have any recent ones of your family.

you know you love your yorkies when the brand new capeting that you would not allow anyone to walk on with their shoes is now covered in so many stains that you are going to have to rip it out and replace it with new floors.

The expensive hand made stuffed animals that you have around your house are all blind and deaf because they no longer have eyes or ears or stuffing for that matter.

You decide you didnt really like listening to that cd player, or using your headphones, or using your playstation paddles, watching that movie, using your cellphone, etc etc etc because they are all chewed up and they dont work anymore.

you really love your yorkies when you have such bad allergies and are so miserable there are times when you would like to chop off your head but you still continue to let your dogs sleep with you anyway.

ImCKN · 07-06-2007, 10:31 PM

Reading these and realizing that we all are loved so much. I want to add:

You know you love your Yorkie when:
You call the vet to make sure the waiting room does not have a big, aggressive, or contagious sick animal in it before you get there.
The vet gives you his home number so you can call him whenever!!
You put out a birth announcement when the puppies are born.
You have a 4 page application for those who express interest in adopting one of the babies
You tell a family that has cash in hand, but not the love in their heart that they will not be adopting one of your babies.

You know you love your yorkie when:

You cry for an hour after you leave her for a couple days to go on a vacation and then worry about her the whole time you're gone

You don't really trust anyone at all to take care of her for you

You are willing to spend much more on an outfit for her than yourself and shop for her way more than you do for yourself

You put so much more thought into what she's eating than you do for yourself

You don't move when she's asleep beside/on you because you don't want to wake her no matter how bad you have to pee

You sleep on the very edge of the bed because she's already claimed her spot in the center of the bed which doesn't leave you much room, but you don't want to move her

You don't go some places because you can't take her with you

You know you love your Yorkie when while visiting your one daughter in England and your other 21 year daughter (who loves my baby almost as much as I do, nobody could love her as much as I do) is tasked with looking after my fur-baby at home is threatened with a change in her living arangments (she is still living at home) if something should happen to my baby. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!!!!!!!!

My response: "Hell naw, Izzy came first, I wish I would get rid of him for a man who acts like a girl because of a 5lb dog. They have to understand up front that Izzy is part of the package...and it is a good one I must admit!"

proud of you, big time!!!!

I just love everyone's posts-these are all great examples, and so true!

I have a few more to add:

You know you love your yorkie when...

You see them in your peripheral vision-even when they're not there!

You check under your computer chair before moving it so that you don't accidentally step on them

You carry your little ones up and down the stairs, and on and off the bed as much as possible, so they don't have to go up and down themselves, even though they are perfectly capable of getting there themselves

You wait to throw the yogurt lid away because your yorkie just LOVES to lick the yogurt lid!

You are late to work because you had to stay and chat about your yorkies with the groomer, the doggie daycare staff, your neighbor, etc.

You have an audience while going to the bathroom, because your yorkies don't like to be shut out of the bathroom!

You get up at least 1-2 times each night since exactly February 22nd, because your yorkie cries and needs to be tucked back into her bed

My mom use to do that with our last baby (may she rest in peace). She would let her lick the yogurt lid when she was done. She knew when mom had it and didnt miss her chance

i miss her sooooooooooo much.

And i dont get no privacy in the bathroom anymore. they got to be right in there with you and if you close the door you just see these little paws and eyes lol so you just have to let them back in

You know your hubby loves his Yorkie when he includes her in his marraige proposal to you:

"You and Mitzi are going to be my life!" So happened on November 19th 2001. We got married on November 22nd 2001.

Now... who can top this????

chattiesmom · 07-07-2007, 05:18 AM

This is a FANTASTIC thread. Thanks to the OP, Suzy, for starting it. I have some more. You know you love your Yorkie when:

You are happy to drive 65 miles (with gas $3+ per gallon) to buy their food

You yell at your skin kids for yelling at your furkids when they bark

You tell your adult skin kids that the Yorkies are permanent and they are not (so deal with it)

You are a better woman than I. I love my babies, but I wouldn't turn this down (maybe because I've had the good forture to stay at two Sandals and I know how you are treated)!!!!!

But, may I add that you know you love your Yorkies when you voluntarily plan a 15 hour (each way) road trip - when you hate road trips - so you can travel with the hubby to see your son, but you don't want to leave the babies behind. Then, you have more packed in the car for them than you do for you and you're making pit stops because it's time for the babies to eat and potty!!!!!

And I agree completely with all the other posts. I buy organic food for them, but it's too expensive for us and I am in SOOOOOO in debt from buying them clothes and toys!!!!!!
