Arrival Story: A beloved chihuahua died, and my wife wanted another small dog. She scoured the Internet and fell in love with Yorkies. Amazingly, a couple weeks later, a friend showed us an 11-week-old Yorkie she had just bought but had to get rid of because she was allergic to him. We took it as fate and have been delighted ever since.
