you never know what the mixes will look like. i think it's so interesting to see which genes take dominance. she is sure a treasure. :) | thanks I appreciate the nice feedback. I never gave much thought to poms but have always loved yorkies but my last yorkie as cute as he was, was such a handful that he almost ruined me from wanting another dog. About a year after his death I decided it was time, but was looking for something different but not to different. Lola was four months old when I saw her little face in the classified section of the Detroit Free press, after visiting the home where she was for sale, (but not where the parents were) I took a chance and paid $450.00. Since I could tell she was the age they claimed I had a very good idea how she would look full grown (always have bought my puppies, at 3 or more months of age). I post dated my check by a day and took her straight to the vet and had full blood work up done as well as a check up. She got a great report and so far all has been good. But you are right you never know what you will wind up with a mix breed, her brother looked nothing like her, he was smaller and 100% dark brown. I have seen a few since, one was about 20 lbs and all tan, most look nothing like Lola. Besides (IMO:D) her looking so good, she has a great personality, she loves other dogs, loves to fetch, swim and loves people. It's sort of sad because I loved my little guy Kirby, but I have gone from having the most disliked dog in the neighborhood to the most popular. Friends have said they want a "Lola" but not only did I spay her, I tell them I have no idea of her background and could never promise they would even look like her. After spending on average of $1,200 for my other yorkies, my husband and I marvel at our luck with our bargain dog:D:D But shhhhhsh don't tell Lola that, she thinks she is priceless:cool: |
