| Lost my two yorkie pals within 6 weeks Until August, I had two wonderful Yorkies, Angel and Jasper. They had been with us for 11 and 12 years respectively, and were great friends of each other and of my husband and I. As you all know, Yorkies are incredible creatures full of love and personality. To me, they are the ultimate of dog friends. When I first began looking at this site, it was because my Jasper was ill, and that is why I logged on as "Jaspermom". I wanted to see if there was any good advice about what he was going through at the time. Mostly I firmly believed it was grief that he suffered from. Six weeks earlier Jasper's best friend and life companion Angel had been accidentally killed by my brother's dog who was really just trying to peel her off his face, and ended up breaking her fragile little neck. They were getting along soooo well. It only took a second. My poor brother suffered greatly from this, and I do not think he will ever forgive his dog, or himself. It was a very difficult time. Jasper was 12 at the time of Angel's death, and for the past three years has not been at all healthy. We knew he did not have that long, due to his multiple illnesses, and had been thinking it for awhile. We never expected that Angel would go before Jasper. Her death hit Jasper hard, and he never recovered. Six weeks later he waited until we were out, and passed away quietly. I miss them both so much. Their deaths were too close to each other. There was no time to get used to Angel being gone, and then Jasper was gone too... When Angel died, I swore no more dogs. I couldn't take the pain of losing them. But after Jasper passed away, I couldn't take the emptiness either, of the house or of my heart. Less than a week later I asked my husband if he wanted another Yorkie, and he told me he was just waiting for me to ask. So now we have Wosie. At 3 1/2 months, she is a lot more of a challenge than I ever remember my other two being, but she is also the light of my life. I adore her and am determined she become the sweet, loving, and well behaved wonder-Yorkie her two predecessors were. Wish me luck! Thanks for letting me tell my Yorkie story. I feel so much better telling, even though there are tears in my eyes while I type. Dang, it's still hard...

| Sorry My dog passed in Jan. and I still miss her everyday. Time does make things better. It is funny how weird things remind you of them and the great times you had together. Have fun will the baby. Tauni |

| Tauni, my heart is just aching for your loss. I am so terribly sorry. I lost my Yorkie while I was on vacation back in May (he escaped from our home and was picked up by someone that didn't return him) and my entire summer was one big haze. We just got our new Yorkie, Jagger, right after Labor Day and I have to say, my heart is just healing beautifully. But, there are times when I am still melancholy for Coty. Getting the new puppy was just what God ordered! Even my 14.5 yr. old Yorkie-Poo Tyson has been renewed by this new addition. I am glad that you got Wosie! She will light up your life. God bless you.

| So sorry for your loss, but in my opinion you did the right thing by getting another to share your love. You will never replace the ones that are gone, but everyone has enough love for much more than 2. I have lost several over the years and I know for me it is best to get another immediately. I once had to have one put to sleep, and when I got out into the car my new puppy got in my lap and kissed my tears away. She knew how sad I was. Your new puppy will never take the place of the others, but she will make a place of her own. |

| What a sad story. I am so sorry for your loss. I had a golden named Kimba that my husband bought me when we were dating. She got cancer in 1995, when she was 13 years old and we had to put her asleep. It was horrible. Kimba was our first child. We still talk about her all of the time. I knew I had to get another golden especially because I was pregnant with my third child. I didn't want to deprive the kids of having a pet. Well, Sammy got cancer when she was only 5 years old and passed away. That was all I could take. We haven't had another dog since. Flash forward to Feb. 2005 on my 40th Birthday. I got my first little dog- a yorkie named Roxy Girl! My family and I couldn't be happier with our only little girl (she has 3 human brothers) The only problem is she started having seizures last night. She just had her 5th one at 7:00pm tonight. I wrote all about it in the "sick pet forum" Good luck to you with your new baby. Say a prayer for my Roxy. Roxy's Mom, Maria |

| I lost my two Yorkies in February. Like you, I never expected Gracie to go before Scruffy. She was young and healthy and Scruffy was old with multiple health problems. I feel your pain. Even though we have new babies to love, they can't replace the ones we lost. God bless you and I hope you get better soon.
