I did my girls no favors letting them be so dependent on me. :( :(

They withdrew so much when I was gone for a week 2 years ago and layed by the door just waiting and waiting for 6 straight days. They love my husband but I'm the one that they're with all the time and when I'm out they won't eat or do anything till I come home ....

they go NUTS when I walk in the door - simply nuts.....it's like a 20 minute kiss-a-thon and sometimes they get SO excited they even let out little screams - happy screams - but it's also panic cause I was gone and HOW DARE I ???:D

Mine would need Therapy.

Mine do that too, when i come back from a store, as soon as they see my Truck in the window , i can hear them screaming, not yipping...screaming :rolleyes: specialy Rosi !

I have always said that Simon loves everyone so much if he was a human child he would be the type that would go anywhere with anyone. He is so happy around people I really think he would be just fine.

Hallie would be so devastated I really don't know if she would survive.

Sasha (even though it has only been 1 week) would have a hard time, Seth would be fine as long as hubby was with him. They both would be ok, I think they would do fine without me but.... now that I have both of them if anything happen to them I just do not know about me. I am watching them play right now and they just are phenominal. I love them

True Love?
 

As much as I hate to admit this......Artie, is very attached and would be devasted but he would get over it. Abigail and Tiffany are'nt that attached and would probably adapt/adjust to a new owner if they had to?
I'm sure I Love and Need them more than they do, me! All 3 are Trained well and very happy/stable. They are of course spoiled rotten! I'm sure anyone else would take care of them as well as I do or even better?
I actually worry about their future and if they will be all right? Accidents do happen, as well as un-known health problems, they could get stolen? Anything could happen......I do know I am not the type of person that if something did happen to any one or all 3? That I would not try to replace them since they are so unique in personalities/charcter and very high maintenance. I would be too devasted to even get another Yorkie, or even another Breed of dog. It's obvious that I care more than they do?:aimeeyork

Extremely. They would be traumatized for life.
This is what I picked, as much as they both love my Hubby, Its me who they look for when they are sick or hurt, Its me they run to get a good spot with when they sleep. I should never of let them depend on me so much, because of this reason, I can go to the bathroom and come back and they acted like I have been gone for ever. They are with me 24/7. so yes they would be lost with out me.

this is very scary thought to think . lexi would be all of the first 3.
i tell my mom sometimes , if anything happens to me, you must take lexi,
she tells me she dont know how lexi would survive without me... she sees lexi
go crazy when i leave the house.. she stays by the window and waits for me until get back... she idolizes me, i swear.. you really have to see the way
she looks at me sometimes .. she goes gaaaa gaaa over me..i feel so bad
when i have to leave her for a second. can imagine a long time or forever.

Hootie, Hobbs and Lamar are all three VERY VERY social. I have taken extra steps to make sure they are all three properly socialized dogs....i.e. leave them overnight or over the weekend at my sister's house and parents house, let my mother-in-law take H&H to work with her for the day, let them go play at a friends house without me there, and I take Lamar to daycare 3 times a week and to obedience classes once a week. To date, I have never seen any of them be put in a situation where they were not completely comfortable...they love people of all shapes, sizes, and colors, and are never nervous in strange places. I see so many dogs who are nervous and shy and reserved and it just breaks my heart. When I got my dogs I knew I wanted all 3 of them to be confident and comfortable around strange people and in strange surroundings. If that means that they would get over me quickly if something happened to me, so be it. I know they love me to death, but I would rather them get over my quickly than live a life of misery.

For the poll, I put they would get over me in a year, but to be honest, as long as they had a good owner, they would probably be happy anywhere.

Ozzie is MY boy. He loves my mom, too, but even she says she doesn't think he would make it if anything happened to me.:(

Oh good Lord, mine would be traumatized for life LOL. That's an easy one :p Stedman is basically glued to me at the hip - and Tatum is fast becoming the same way :eek: They wouldn't know what to do without me right beside them all the time...and I don't know how they'd ever cope with not being spoiled rotten like they are here :p

I answered this survey awhile back, but never posted. Here is my take on things.

Ginger seems to be completely and thoroughly attached to me. She sits in the window and waits for me to come home, has her spot on the couch beside me, and is never far away. You would thinks she'd just have a heart attack if I never came back. However, if she could live with my parents I think she'd be just fine. I take her there pretty frequently when I have to be away for an entire day. In the beginning she moped and fretted and fussed and was miserable. But she adjusted quickly, and found her own routine for when she's at Grandma's house. Of course, that's in part due to the fact that she figured out I always come back.

Bernie, is also attached to my ankle. He FREAKS when I leave him at Grandmas and eventually lies down and pouts. But Bernie's already had multiple families (his first, his foster family, now us) and I think he hasn't quite decided he can let me out of his sight (maybe I won't come back).
That being said, he's unbelievably laid back, and he adjusted to living with us quite quickly. I believe his power to adapt is extraordinary. Once he got used to his new situation, I think he'd be fine.

Now, would I survive without my yorkies???? That's entirely different!

:aimeeyork I really want to believe that she couldn't get along without us. But I have a magazine that says that Yorkies are very adaptable. They bond easily a second time. I guess I am glad, because I would have a real hard time thinking that she would not survive if we weren't around. I don't know if I will survive without her though.:(

I think mine would adapt eventually. I say this as I have gotten adult dogs from Germany and they usually attached pretty quickly. I could tell they were close to their owners, as they did want to sleep in bed here and stuck close by. One girl though did have a more diffecult time and refused to eat except for boiled chicken. We were buying up every type of dog food to try with her. We finally found one that worked. Later though she would eat about anything. I think she was just enjoying watching us try to cater to her. I even cooked her liver (ugh!) which she would not eat. What we won't do for our fur children!

My Fritzel would be devasted if he was not with me anymore. I adopted him when he was 2 years old and we bonded right away. He does not really like anyone else. He runs and hides if anyone comes to the house. He goes nuts when I get home. My husband says when he comes home Fritzel comes out to see who it is then looks disappointed and goes back behind the couch until I come home.

Cody would have a hard time because he is a mama's boy. other than me and nana he doesn't let anyone else hold him or touch him. he follows me EVERYWHERE
