| My new baby! Hi! My 17 year old baby girl, Twisty passed away this past September. Many of you may have watched her tribute video in the RIP section. I miss her dearly. I got a portrait painted of her with angel wings that I look at every day. Losing her was the hardest thing I have ever had to do, but I am happy to say that on January 8th I welcomed a new 8 month old boy into my home. I would like to introduce everyone to my sweet boy, Philo! Isn't he the cutest?? |

| Thank you ColesMommy01! I just can't get enough of him! My friend said I should have named him Radar because of his ears - lol!! He is actually pretty calm to still be a puppy. When he is on his little bed, he don't move for anything - well, except food! Twisty was a very picky eater and Philo is NOT. I haven't found anything he doesn't like yet. When the kids get home from school he is all rested and ready to play then! We are just thrilled to have him as a part of our family! |

YT 500 Club Member | Twisty How lucky you were to have the love of your life for 17yrs. I know the angel wing portrait is beautiful. My little guy left us only 1week into his 7th birthday. It's been absolutely horrible this past year. I can't wait till my pup arrives. But, I have already started comparing him to my late baby. I can't imagine this one being as good and cute as my first. Please keep your fingers crossed that I can be the best mom to him as I was with my Titan. |

| You will be a great mommy! I was a little nervous about getting Philo because Twisty was just a perfect angel. She was well behaved, loving and oh so sweet. I actually felt like I would be cheating on her! But, Philo is just as sweet and loving as Twisty. I had gotten use to having a senior dog and I didn't know if a puppy would be overwhelming or not. Philo has brought so much joy to our lives because he is playful. My 7 year old daughter took Twisty's passing very hard. Philo has made her happy again. She says he is the 2nd best dog in the world because Twisty will always be #1! I too worried about comparing him to Twisty but I guess it is just like people - they all have their own unique personalities. Once you get to know your new little guy, you will see him as him own little being! Twisty was my best friend for 17 years and there is no "replacing" her for sure - she is always in my heart and I hope one day we will be together again. Until then, I have no doubt that my granddaddy is taking good care of her for me! |

YT 500 Club Member | Thank you You are so sweet for your kind words. Thank you for your wisdom. AMEN! Just as my mom & dad are loving my little one too. We will see them again. I told my little Titan we will cross "Rainbow Bridge" together. |

| Your welcome! As they were putting Twisty to sleep, I told her until we meet again. I didn't say goodbye because I know we will be together again one day. Then she passed away in my arms and I gave her a kiss. It was the worst night of my life. I called my mom on the way home crying and I told her I would never have another one because it is too painful when you lose them. Then as time passed I realized that I can't not love another one just because I am scared on losing it. They bring so much more joy than sadness! So when I heard Philo needed a good home I just had to have him! I understand all your thoughts and emotions right now. I hope you get your little guy and fits right in like a puzzle piece - just like Philo did!! Keep me updated please! |

| Thank you everyone! I think he is just perfect - but I may be a little biased! I just love him so much! I didn't know I could love this much again after losing Twisty. I can't imagine life without a yorkie!! |
