| Yay!!! Finally!!! I am SO excited to say that I am FINALLY getting a baby!! His name is Dash (like the little boy from The Incredibles) and I can't wait to go pick him up on Thursday. He's 4 mo. old and weighs a little over 2 1/2 lbs. He is so precious!!!! I will definitely be posting pictures as soon as I get them (and would love to get help making an avatar ) I want to thank everyone here on YT for all of the advice I've already received - I've been a member for several months but had no idea when I'd actually be able to get a Yorkie, so I've had lots of time to learn about them before making the BIG DECISION!! I am so very excited and look forward to getting to know all of you even better!! |

| Thanks guys!!! I am literally COUNTING THE HOURS until we go pick him up!!! Until then it's work and puppy-proofing the house!! I have a random question - do you prefer a harness or regular collar/leash? I think I'm going to get both, because I've heard that the harness is better for just playful walking but the collar and leash is better for training. Let me know your opinion. THANKS!!! |

| Congrats on getting Dash! We would love to see pics! Harness is safer for these little dogs...Some yorkies' tracheas can collapse especially the little ones, so it's not good to tug on their little necks. You can still train with a harness and leash. Can't wait to hear about Dash! |

Yorkie Lover Donating Member | Congrats on Dash...that is a great name!!! Magic and Sailor can not wait to meet the new little guy...I am so glad that you became knowlegable before making the big decision, if we only had more people like you... I would defintely tell you to get both...we use a harness when on walks or outside for some reason (other than pottying) as we don't want to pull on their necks...but we use collars to wear all the time, except for we are not there, that way in case they were ever to get out the door we would be able to find them!!! Congrats again!!!

| You know, I have never heard of any dog named "Dash" and I give you 100% thumbs up on such a great name!! I love it! And it fits the Yorkie's personality perfectly, LOL ... Saying his name just makes ya smile. I am so excited for you and look forward to seeing the pictures you share. Congratulations on your upcoming adoption. Thursday will be here before you know it!
