| I have wanted one for over 20 years before getting one. I waited until my kids were grwon. We always had large to medium size dogs (GSD, Golden Ret., Cockers, Shelties )and got my first toy breed (maltese) almost 4 years ago. I really couldn't decide between a maltese or a yorkie and was talked out of the yorkie by my sister-in-law. Got the maltese and still wasn't satisfied. Decided..why not one of each. I have been a dog owner for 40 years, got my first puppy (a cocker) for a birthday present as a child. Can't ever imagine not having dogs in my life... I think I like em better than people. LOL

| We got Gucci on Sept 2004 and she was 12 weeks. SO that means we have owned a Yorkie for around 10 months. We wanted one for a couple of years after meeting my sister's Yorkie. |

| Wow - with this poll you can really see the popularity of this breed jump. I got Deegan about 3 months ago. I have always wanted a yorkie for years and years. But I had two dogs at the time, ( a sheltie and a shepard). I don't want to get such a small dog with a german shepard, and then after she was gone, I didn't want my sheltie to think that I didn't love him anymore or anyless. See, he was getting old, and I wanted him to be loved and have all the attention as much as possible until it was his time to go. I couldn't bring a new puppy in with him like that. So I waited. My sheltie pass away lasy July. I greived for about a year and then got Deegan.

| How long? I got my first Yorkie in 1972. If I could have three wishes, one would be to spend an entire day in a grassy fields with all the Yorkies I have owned over the years...we are talking over 75 wonderful Yorkies. I can close my eyes and put a face to each name. |
