I have lived 47 years without ever having an animal living in my home.  Never thought I wanted one until I met Emme!  She is a 2.5 lb Yorkie and has become a precious addition to our family.  Meet my first furbaby!  Emme celebrated her first birthday in December.  Yep you guessed it, we made it special for her with extra treats.  I have missed so much over the years, thank goodness I came to my senses.

Valerie, our first dog as a married couple was a Yorkie.  I would have another one in a minute.  They are so precious and so smart!  Yours is a real cutie.

How in the world can you have lived without pets? My pets are my friends who are always there for me. =) They make life more fulfilling. You have so much fun, and rewarding experiences ahead of you =^.^=

Oh my -- I can certainly see why you have the wonderful pet.  I have always had a pet -- dogs and cats -- they are the best!  Enjoy

Congratulations on adding a new member to the family.  There have only been a very few years of my life, mostly in college and law school, when I didn't have a pet, and I missed it.

Everyone:  Thank you so much for your supportive comments.  I have had pets, just not domesticated.  We had horses and outside dogs.  I grew up in a home that could take the white glove test and my Daddy thought an animal in the house would not keep the good housekeeping seal of approval.  I thought it was ridiculous when I was younger but I became a clean freak when I married and moved out.   It took me a long time but thank goodness I saw the light!  I am still a clean freak but it is easy with Emme.   She got me through the rough times this past year when I didn't feel like talking!     Thanks again for taking the time to post a comment!

JOANNE:  TAKE THE PLUNGE, IT WILL BE THE BEST GIFT YOU EVER GAVE YOURSELF!

Val, she looks like such a sweetheart!  My daughter's Yorkie is the first one in our family, and we love her to pieces!
