New Yorkie Parents - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Hello. I am new to this forum. My name is Tracy. Me and my husband are new yorkie parents. We are very excited to be bringing our 2 little babies home on Sunday. We have a 4hr drive to get them. We have an 11 1/2 wk old little girl and a 7 1/2 wk old boy.
We have pretty much decided on a name for her (Bella) and may be calling the little boy Bandit. We won't be deciding for sure until we spend a little time with them.
I am so nervous. I have been reading this forum from front to back since I joined last night.
We recently lost our little baby Lucky that we have had for 16years. He was a rat terrier. We are so devastated and lonely in this house. We really need someone to fill the void of the loss of our baby. We have never, ever, felt so lost and alone.
I have looked at a lot of pictures on here and can not wait to have one of these little balls of joy running around our home. Me and my husband have SO much love to give.
I will continue to read and learn all I can about our precious new little ones. Any suggestions or information is very welcome.

Thank you all for the warm welcome. I am soooo excited. Tomorrow can not get here soon enough.
Thanks also for the condolences about our Lucky. No one can ever even imagine how we feel unless the person has went through it themselves.
Looking forward to getting to know everyone.

I JUST PICKED UP MY 16 WEEK OLD BABY GIRL LUCY TODAY IT WAS THE LONGEST 55 MIN DRIVE EVER LOL . SHE IS A LIL BALL OF ENERGY AND A JOY ! i would love tips on potty training her i was thinking about trying litter box ? she has went good twice outside and 3 pee pee in side on the tile so that is good and one poo poo . just want to do good with it and she hates the crate ?

LunasMomma · 06-10-2012, 10:28 AM

Welcome, Tracy

I'm sure that you are very busy today getting ready and going to pick up your new babies. How exciting that you are getting two, twice the fun

!!!

The little boy is a little young, that's concerning to me. Please do read up here about hypoglycemia, it's symptoms and how to bring them out of it. If it happens to your puppy, you'll know what to look for and how to treat it.

Keep us posted on how it's going and pictures are welcome

My baby girl is four months now. I got her when she was only 8 weeks and we traveled 6 hours one way to get her!!
