I'm glad that he is doing so great but I don't think you can find an experienced and reputable breeder willing to let them go that young. Do we have any breeders here on YT that would?

Boy this is true! I almost lost Adie because she got sick the day after I got her. She was only 7 weeks.

Hope Andy is your "Dream Dog!" He sure is dreamy to me!

I had a friend who brought her puppy home at 6 weeks and spent the next night in emergency hospital because the puppy couldn't handle the stress of a new environment and she paid a huge bill for it. Another friend lost her pup after only a week because the pup caught some disease due to the lower immune system younger pups have plus she was inexperienced too. I know some people like to bring home a younger puppy like 6 to 8 weeks instead of a 12 weeks old but personally, I feel like its a russian roulette game. I am sure there are puppies who would be just fine but younger puppies are more sensitive to environmental changes and weaker immune system.

He is soo cute! He is such a swwet laid back puppy and is so quite already in his little carrier! He is eating chicken right now cause he doesn't seem interested in his regular food so I gave him skinless chicken tonight. And put some in his food with his regular hard food mixed with a little bit of wet puppy food. So we will see if he'll start eating that. Otherwise he has just been sitting there cuddling me. He gets up and walks around little but I think he is still getting used to us. I'll post a new thread all about him and how he is doing when I get pictures of him. MY CAMERA BATTERIES ARE DEAD

So I have to wait till tomorrow or the next day. We are still in the midst of traveling to get back hom and are staying the night here in fl tonight. I keep all of you updated!

I am so sorry for your loss! So mad that the breeder didnt give you 72 hours which is the usual in a health guarantee to take your baby to get checked outand to see if there is anything genetically wrong.May I please ask what your vet said your sweet baby passed away from?

I fell in love with yorkies when i was 13,and that was all she wrote.....

I have a boy "Andy" reserved for her and she will be picking it up when she comes here in about 4 weeks - he will be 12 weeks old and ready to rock and roll in the Yorkie world

I feel honored to be able to give some joy to someone who has had to go thru what she went thru this morning and someday maybe she will have the opporitunity to pass it along.

Just doing it cause I love Yorkies and YT,

You are such an amazing generous woman! I love how often sad stories have happy endings here at YT.

Mayfateleadyou: Congrats on your new baby. He is an absolute doll!

DONNADEE · 10-05-2007, 06:21 AM

yorkiesmiles · 10-05-2007, 06:42 AM

I am so thrilled for you that you got to start this new chapter in life early! Hugs to the new baby and to your wonderful hubby.

The generosity of yters makes me proud to be a part of this giving forum. I too have benefited from the generosity of others here - in the form of free dog watching -- I want to be a blessing to others, as you all have inspired me.
