Awesome story. You're both blessed. He's lucky to have been rescuedand you to end with such a great dog. You'll both be good for one another. He's sweet. Welcome and Good Luck. :thumbup:

Addison looks all Yorkie to me and what a handsome little yorkie at that!
I'm so happy for both of you!! It sounds like a match made in heaven :hug:

Aww! What a handsome little man.

Congratulations and welcome to YT!

Welcome to YT!

He looks all yorkie to me and completely ADORABLE!

I have two big boys. Chip is 8 lbs and Smokey is 14 lbs.

Hello and Welcome to YorkieTalk! :) Addison is adorable and bless you both for giving him such a wonderful home.

Welcome to YT and congratulations!! Addison is gorgeous ... and all Yorkie, IMO! Sounds like he has settled right in and that's wonderful. Sometimes it takes them a long time to learn to "trust" and understand that there are loving people who are honored to have them share their lives. Most rescue's have a certain look in their little eyes and there's no greater reward than the day that look is replaced by one of trust and love! :) God bless you and your husband for loving a rescue!!

He's adorable!!! He looks purebred to me. What a lucky guy that you adopted him. Such a great thing to do. There are a few good things about bigger yorkie's, they can hold their pee pee longer, my little Maggie was 5 lbs and she always had to go potty. I am fostering a 13 lbs dog and this guy has to be dragged out of bed in the am to go pee. I love it. Your not always so worried about them being hurt. Theres so much more to cuddle and love. Congrats.

Congratulations to both of you & welcome to Yorkie Talk.

An update on Addison...
 

I cant thank all of you enough for all of the wonderful comments and support! He is doing great, has stopped the "startled" look in his eyes every time a loud commercial comes on or some other loud noise. He now watches every move I make but is becoming comfortable enough to stay in the chair, bed or wherever he happens to be when I leave him for a moment. I took him outside for a while today and we ran and ran. I wish all of you could of seen him running so happily and free. He seems truly at peace now and I am so very excited as I realize this is only the beginning of seeing all this precious boy has to offer. He has put on weight and now his backbone is not the first thing you feel when petting him. Its only been about three weeks and I am amazed at his transition.

He has had two "accidents" in the house, but always seem to be very close to the door. I cleaned it up out of his view, and he does make a genuine effort to do his business outside. I am positive he will find his way and understand all of the ins and outs of our home. This will take some time as any new home has to seem huge to such a small guy.

For all of you considering adoption, I have no regrets at all. I do realize we were extremely lucky getting him at a year old, as a home pull instead of breeding farm. He also was not at the rescue long. But the trust is coming fast and I have to believe any animal deserves a chance. Purebred yorkie or not, they all are special!

My husband adores him (Addison quickly won him over) and now I catch him laying with my husband. I was very glad to see this as I was concerned with his abusive history Addison may harbor fears yet. Not so with us, thank goodness.;)

I see your at Ft. Mitchell KY, my son is stationed at Ft. Campbell. My nephew in Iraq. Bless all of you. My son is coming home for Thanksgiving, and absolutely loves dogs, he cant wait to see Addison. They cant have dogs in their dorms can they? LOL
