| I lost my Yorkie Hi, I'm new to this forum and this is my first post. I lost my Yorkie, Truffles, on 12/24/10. That was one day after she turned 15. I guess she had been 'going down hill' the last couple of months. And, finally, when I woke up that morning, Christmas eve, I knew I couldn't let her go another day. She wasn't suffering, but, her appetite was so bad the last few weeks and she really wasn't doing much. With the holiday and some family issues, we knew we had to 'do something'. I called my vet and he told me to come right over and an hour later, it was all over. It's been a very hard couple of months ever since and we miss her more than I ever thought we could. It's just me and my husband now and it's very lonely without my spirited little girl around. I guess I'll post an 'introduction' on another thread,but for now, I figured I'd post this. Pam |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I am so sorry. It is so heartbreaking to lose one of our babies. I hope when the time is right you find the perfect yorkie to share your heart with.

| So sorry about Truffles. It's never easy when a pet dies they are a part of the family. You came to the right place for support there are so many wonderful people that understand what you are going through. I know how you feel I lost my girl in October and our house is so quiet and we miss her terribly. Let yourself grieve and try to remember the good times. Truffles will always be with you.

| So sorry for your loss. I had to put my 17 yr old cat down in July and it was tough. Hope you feel better soon. |

| Pam, I'm so sorry you lost your precious Truffles!! How sad!! Have you considered adopting a rescue...or getting another yorkie in the future? I'm only asking because my daughter lost her yorkie to a tragic accident..and so we got her another yorkie..not to replace Lily...but just because we knew how desperately she wanted a yorkie in her life...and she said Jazzy helped her thru so much grief! It's something to consider....especially since it's been a couple months.. Welcome to YT.

| Thank you for your sympathy Thanks so much for the sympathy all of you have given me. It really helps to have support. I could go on for hours and days about my special girl and how much I miss her but, I think all of you already know how I feel. It's good to know that I'm not alone in my grief. Yes, I have been thinking of another Yorkie. I can never replace Truffles, not ever. But, knowing that, I'm also pretty sure that I'd love to have another little Yorkie girl to share my life with. Yorkies are so special. I'm sure, though, that I'd like a new puppy rather than adopt an older rescue. I want as much time with a new pup as I could get. Thank you again for making me feel welcome.

| Pam, I'm so very sorry for your loss. Truffles sounds like she was a special, well loved little girl. I lost my 15 year old, Alexander, on December 16 so I understand your pain. It helps to think of them at the rainbow bridge, happy and healthy and playing with the other pups who are waiting to be reunited with their parents, too. God bless and big hugs to you and your husband. Bonny

| There is nothing as special as the memories of so many years spent with a special little yorkie. There is a bond that forms that is like no other. RIP Truffles. You were very loved.

| I lost my Yorkie Thank you, everyone, so much for your sympathy. It helps to know that others share your grief. I cry whenever I think of Truffles and I wouldn't want her to think I'm trying to replace her. No one could. My husband says I should just think of the happy times and that she is happy now, at the Rainbow Bridge. I know I should take his advice, but, all I can do is cry. I feel so sorry for all of you who have lost your babies. I never thought I could feel this way. I didn't just love Truffles. I was in love with her. I'm sure I'm not saying something new to anyone. But, thanks again for all the consolation. Pam |

| I am deeply sorry for your loss. Even as our babies age, I don't think there's anything we can do to prepare ourselves for losing them. Nothing can ease the pain but time. It definitely helps to have people who understand your loss and loneliness, and we are here to help you any way that we can. In June we lost our little girl, Ashley, just before her seventeenth birthday. We miss her dearly and the pain is still so great. It is a tribute to Truffles that you want to bring another Yorkie into your lives. My husband and I hope to be able to do the same. When we lost our first Yorkie, we didn't think it was possible to love another little one like her. Then we got Ashley and her two sisters, and we fell hopelessly in love with each of them. Every little one is so different, so there is no way one will replace another. My little girls have such a special place in our hearts, and although they are no longer physically with us, the powerful love lasts forever and they will always be a part of us. I hope that, with each passing day, the beautiful memories of moments shared with Truffles replace the sadness you are feeling.
