I have been in this house for almost two years. I haven't ate anything different or been around anything different. When he is in my lap, my eyes start watering and burning.

I understand completely! If my pups are in my Bfs face too much he starts itching and his eyes itch! so yes it can happen

I have bad allergies to cats but with my yorkies im fine!

Joy, he's beautiful. I wish I had the money for him, as I only live about 20 minutes from you, just past Stateline, in Alabama. We do all our shopping in Waynesboro. Perhaps if you decide to keep him, we can get our babies together for a play date!

Hi Joybelle. I'm sorry you having trouble. I know others have mentioned this already but I thought I'd add to it. My son who has very asthma and allergies and who gets very sick around dogs and cats does very well with my Yorkies. I have five. I'm not saying that allergies do not happen with Yorkies and some people but it is very rare. I'd hate to see you get rid of your baby and find that something else is causing this.

A quick little story; I had a Sun Conure (Small parrot) for threee years. Had her out of an egg. She was my little baby that would sit in my shirt while I cleaned. Well, I became very very ill and the doc. could not figure out what it was. He finally came to the conclusion that it was my little conure causing me to be so sick. He said that I had "A" typical Pnemonia and that all birds carry the (Something I forget what it is) and that it only effects "Some" people and that I was one of them. He told me that I needed to find a home for my Abby or I would never get better. I was terribly sick. Well, I found a loving home for her with a semi retired couple. Gave Abby away with her cage, playstand, food etc. and only asked that they love her like I did. I cried for months after and I never did get better. Turned out to be something else - Chronic Leukemia.

I would really reccomend before you give your baby up to go to a good allergist and make sure that it is really him causing it and nothing else. I'd hate to see you go through the heart ache that I went through.

Best of luck
Elaine

good luck on selling him

Some people can still be allergic to them, my friend is allergic to Rocky (don't know about Bella because she doesn't have hair) but she's not allergic to long-haired chihuahas...wierd huh?

I'm so sorry to hear about your story

Are you O.K?

That's a good suggestion to go to an allergist first just to be positive.

I am sure you are going to have tons of fun with your new little one. He is absolutely adorable and I love how his ears are standing up soooooooo straight!! Too Cute!

I have a serious question to impose here....but only because it relates to my 10 month old yorkie, Johnny Cash. I looked at Skip's photo and noticed a similar trait that he has with my Johnny Cash....they have what appears to me to be unusually large ears. People comment on it all the time when they see Johnny Cash. Is this a normal size ear for a yorkie? I know, odd question, but Cash's ears do seem quite large to me.
