My first Yorkie was Mandy. I saved $25 every paycheck to get enough money
to get one. My daughter was graduating high school & planning to marry and
my son would be graduating the next year and planned to go away to college.
I got Mandy before I had the empty nest syndrome. I had read a couple of
books on Yorkshire Terriers but didn't really know or care at the time about
show standards. So we headed home with our 8 week old, cute as can be, lil'
bundle. Over time I came to see the "imperfections" that made her the
perfect pet but would get a tisk tisk from a show person. I loved her all
the same.
