Hi everyone,

I was reading posts and I thought I would introduce myself to some local folks. I live in Knoxville and am hoping to get a yorkie in the next year. I would absolutely LOVE to get to know you all especially the ones in my area!

Hey it is great to see someone on here so close! I live in Morristown and just got my first yorkie furbaby about 3 weeks ago!

Hi there! I'm a Carson-Newman graduate and my yorkie, Sully, was born in Lafollette, TN. If you would like our breeder's number let me know! We live in Johnson City now.

Welcome to Yorkie Talk! I live right outside of Chattanooga, so not to far from you! We'll help you anyway we can. I just got my little Millie Sage about 1 1/2 months ago.

My best advise - read as much as you can and be as prepared as you can be. I highly recommend the "Yorkies for Dummies" book. Lots of info, but very easy reading. Most of the advise in the book is right on!

Also, I was very suprised, but I really bought a lot of stuff before I got my yorkie (stuff that was recommended in the book and other websites) and I have used every bit of it!
Nothing was a waste of money, so far.

Hi and weclome to YT,,,, You sure did come to the right place to learn about yorkies before you get one. This site is full of information. I thought I did all my homework before getting us but after a year of having him and almost 3 months of been a member here on YT,,, I have learned so much more. Good luck to you and once you do get your furbaby,,,,, please share some photos. We love sharing pictures here!

knitbritt · 08-31-2005, 02:51 PM

Thanks for the warm welcome guys! YT is the most informative and friendly site I have ever been on. I almost bought the dummies book. I may have to go back and get it.

Thanks for the offer of the breeder contact too. My mom has a yorkie she may breed when she comes into heat again, but if there aren't puppies I will definitely take you up on that.

As for buying stuff....I have wishlists for a ton of things, but no purchases yet. It seems like everything I see there are alot of options for. So far the main decision I have made is harness not leash....I'm still on the fence about the rest as far as products go.

Congratulations on the new baby! How have the first three weeks been? I am really nervous about that first adjustment stage. I hope to get my place completely puppyproofed beforehand.

Thanks again!
Britt

A warm welcome to yorkietalk,I live hundreds of miles away in another country but still wanted to say hi.Prudence is my first yorkie and is 6 and a half months old.

Hi! Nice to meet you guys. Lilbumbleybees, I will definitely post lots of pictures. I have only been to Chattanooga once, but it seemed like a neat place.

Dianne, thanks for the welcome. I hope you are having a great time with Prudence. Has it been difficult with her being your first yorkie? We had dogs while I was growing up, but I haven't had a puppy since I moved out.
