So, what made everyone here decided that a yorkie was the dog for them?

For me, I loved the long flowing coat and color, the wonderful terrier expressions, the personalities...

I got one and I was hooked...

Statistically, the average breeder remains in a breed for five years. The mark you leave on that breed, good or bad, is entirely up to YOU!

Hmmm... I hope that the lack of response is due to vacation time and not the fact that no one Knows why they wanted a yorkie. LOL

My in-laws have had yorkies and litters for years and we never were tempted and really didn't like the breed much. But last year one of the litters had this beautiful girl, who was next to the largest puppy. She was adorable. We decided that we didn't want to bring home another dog, as we have three already, large mutts. When we went back to visit two months later guess who was the ONLY puppy left, OUR little/big girl. We brought Pixie home and love all 5 lbs. of her VERY much. I don't know what made us love her more than any other puppy (she just looked at us with those beautiful eyes and expressions), but it has worked out great, and we're wondering why we waited so long for a yorkie.
