My yorkie is 18 months old now and is the light of our lives. She keeps us very busy playing with her toys. My son decided I needed a dog from his dog's litter.....didn't care for pets in the house. Well this baby melted my heart and I took her home with me. She's not only in my house but in my bed with the husband and I. She's no dummy either. At 18 months she seems to understand more that we really care for her too. She a very good traveler and wants to go everytime we do. Loves barking at cows, kitties and any other animals she sees out of the window. Loves people and thinks everyone should stop to pet her. All our neighbors know Abby and love her. Abby only weighs 4.8 pounds. She sure holds our hearts in her tiny paws! I didn't realize how much like children dogs are. Some say their only dogs but I say they are very close to human.
