Wirehaired Yorkie?

[wollfy]

I just found out that I might get a Wirehaired Yorkie next week. I have never heard of it or seen one before. But his name is Buddy James. And is 6 years old from what I know. My mom's co-worker is moving away to her new job and she can't take him with her. So my mom said she might. He isn't for sell but she is giving him to us for free. But I am kinda worry though. My parents always at work. I can't balance 5 yr. old snoodle, 9mon. old yorkie, and 6yr. old wirehair all at the same time. Plus school is starting next week. So this is a lot of pressure for me. But I don't wanna turn him down..he sounds so adorable and I would like around dog. But not so quick since I just got Jeremiah. What should I do?

That's very nice of you that you are taking him into your home!

That is a toughy to me. I think they will be okay though because the new edition that's coming in is a little bit older, i don't think you should have much problems, but i'm no expert.. but i do want to say congrats!

Hey lady. Where have you been??

I've never heard of a wirehair Yorkie. Do whatever you feel is right. No one can decide for you.

Wirehair Yorkies looks just like black and tan Australian Terriers . The coat never grow to floor lenght .

So is a wirehaired yorkie a 'yorkie' just with an off-standard coat? Or a different breed? Or?

Oh I see. Thanks for telling me.

A wirehaired Yorkie?? Its a fault in the coat. Not a different breed.

It is great that you are thinking for the well being of the pups. This is a desicion that only you can make. Maybe you all can give a a trial period and if doesnt work try to find him a anpther home for him. Please keep us posted how things go.

Can you do a meet-up to see how the three dogs get along?? If he's six, he should be well past all the puppy shenanigans. But, he will be upset to lose his mommy so you will have an adjustment period. Let us know what you decide.

This is what they look like as adult . One of my friend have had one in litter . The dogs in the pics are Australian Terriers .

They are so good looking. Best wishes in your decision.

Stilling deciding on what I should do. But I think I will get him. Hopefully. Thank you Olivier for showing what one looked like. I tried to search on it but I founded nothing.

iheartyorkies, I totally agree with you. He will miss his mommy since he has known her all of his life. And he will take a long time to adjust to us. But then I am also worried about Jane. She has been the family dog. Everyone loves her but she is still trying to get used to Jeremiah and she is stilling trying to get over the fact that my great grandfather just died. They had a very close relationship. Because on the day I got Jeremiah was the day my great grandfather died and its like you bring this little thing home but where's my papa? Jeremiah he adjusted to Jane very well though. So I think he will get along with Buddy. Well hopefully.

Thanks for your advice everyone...I really appericate it!

I am so glad for you . Those Yorkies needs to be loved and appreciated too even if they don't have full floor length coat . As my friend always say , It take him less time to groom but more time to play with them .

Maïa , my first Yorkie had a wirecoat , she was black and tan and most of all she had a splendid temperament . I was devastated when she died at 17 years old .
