Drove out to a stop on the New Jersey turnpike and we sat for an hour waiting--while the puppy bus was also waiting at a different part of the parking lot. Caught them in time, got this charming dog but a moment of worry entered my heart as I saw his very long legs and I was reminded of a similar-looking dog at a visit to an emergency room a number of years ago, whose owner said her boyfriend had bought him from a pet store and the dog was sick all the time, had two sets of teeth, and mis-formed internal organs. i was afraid to love the little doggie too much until the vet looked at him.
He was shy and scared but wanted to be held (no problem!) and cuddled all the way home. And then he distinguished himself by doing his business like a well-trained big dog!
Since that moment, he did everything to win our hearts, slowly getting more comfortable here, but never letting me out of his sight. And curious!! I never saw anything like it. (I've put some photos on my grandson' blog at this URL:

You will see on that site I'm looking for a name for the little dog. He came with the name 'Romeo' but his personality is emerging and I want to help a name that will fit this gentle, playful Yorkie, so I'm still waiting a few days.
