[COLOR=Plum]Hello everyone,

I'm Lori, mom to Chica. Chica is 1 yr. old and the joy of my life. She's just a great companion and the best little dog I've ever had. Nice to meet all of you!

Hi everyone,
My yorkie and I are fairly new to YT and we're from Southeast Florida. We've ready so many great posts that are helpful and we also try to help give advice whenever we can.

Yorkieluv · 05-11-2005, 09:10 AM

Sorry, I'm losing it...not southeast, southwest florida!!! Duh. Lol!

. Our "baby," Reagan, just had his 1st birthday last week! He is an adorable pup and so gentle! I can't wait to get home from work to see him! We haven't had a dog for several years - though we have had cats. Now, we have one of each. It is really nice having a dog though - especially a yorkie! We are in the Tampa area. Loving the weather!

I wish I lived near you Yorkierose! I respect you so! If I did...I'd be camping out on your door step

Not a stalker...I promise! Just an admirer

When you speak... I LISTEN!!

Fond thanks to you for all your help through my struggles

Hi everyone,
I also live in the Miami area, West Kendall to be more precise. We have a four month old beautiful Yorkie named Pebbles. My mother in law plans to get Bam Bam. I have two sons 17 and 11 and have been married for 20 years. I am a teacher and very happy with my life.
Take care and welcome to all the new people in YT

I just found this site. I live in Mandarin and have two yorkies, Chloe and Lacey. I got Chloe, who is 1 from Atlanta and Lacey from Palm Coast. I hate to admit what I paid for Lacey but could not be happier with either one. Chloe is silver/tan, weighs 7 llbs, is very smart and Lacey is 9 mo., more the "typical" blue/tan and weighs 3 llbs, just loves being the alpha dog and sticks closer to me than glue. I am retired, so have plenty of time to be with my girls. I've been reading on the general discussion site about problems with training, whining, etc. Maybe I am lucky but my approach was to crate train and then teach them to go outside. They go to bed around 8pm, in their crate, in another room and get up about 7am with me. They have never cried at night, both are potty trained and are wonderful dogs. I'd have a houseful if my hubby would let me. One thing I know, though, they need a lot of attention and if they don't get it, they can get into trouble with chewing and/or wetting. People who leave their yorkies all day and expect a dog with the bladder the size of a fingernail to hold it might have the wrong pet. Anyway, it's good to hear from people in Fl., I had a time finding mine in this area.
