Millie is our absolutely beautiful, adorable, sociable, loyal friend. She lives with us in Brampton in our house with our son Zach and our other dog Dixie. Dixie is a border collie mix, which is the smallest (40 lbs) dog we have ever owned. Buying Millie was quite a decision for us, knowing that she would only be between 4 and 10 lbs full grown! Millie is, afterall, a purebreed Yorkshire Terrier, or Yorkie for short.
Millie is full grown having just celebrated her first birthday. She weighs in at a whopping 5.8 lbs! Aside from teaching her not to bark (and yes it is mostly possible) she has been a very easy girl to train. We don't seem to have the typical "I'm so excited I could pee" thing going on, which is always nice for guests visiting our home.
The whole reason for starting this blog on our dog is because we are crazy! No, actually, we are doing it because a while ago we decided that breeding Millie would be a good idea. Don't try to convince us otherwise, there's no turning back now:) Millie's temperament and cuteness factors are way up, so we're hoping she'll pass these qualities on. We have had friends, family and neighbours fall in love with Millie very quickly, just as we did, and we hope to create new families with "little Millies". The rest of this blog will follow Millie's "pregnancy". I put that word in quotes because we won't know if she's pregnant for a few weeks yet.
So, fingers crossed and hopes high, here we go for what may be a very exciting, educational journey into the somewhat unknown. To boldly go where no Millie has gone before, yadda yadda yadda. Whatever the case, check back often and read on!
