Birthday: May 5th 2004 Likes: Yummy Chummies. Playing keepaway. Pet-Peeves: 1. Having to walk in the house with his booties. 2. Having to come in the house when he's out playing. 3. When his pesky little sister Jillie steals HIS toys. Favorite Toy: The grunting, squeaking rat. But he's addicted, so we don't give it to him anymore. Favorite Food: Orijen mixed with home-cooked Favorite Walk: One lap around the park, summer and winter. Best Tricks: Sit, down, stay, come, heel, run, watch, around, come back, tunnel, spin, shake, high 5, high 10, low 5, jump, walk on a platform, jump through a tire, touch his nose to a mark, crawl, table, teeter, bang, roll over, sore paw, limp; get tissue; speak. 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. Bio: Eddie is a proud graduate of:
