Re: Hair

Thanks for the encouraging words. I'm just tired of looking like a boy. Esp. when I take my boobs off (I had a double mast).

Cute Yorkies too! I am a dog lover - have two. A border collie/springer mix (adorable girl) and my boy, a Shiba Inu/husky mix that I rescued from a Canadian Indian Reserve where many dogs are shot to, they say, control populations.....anyway, they are my babies.

Do you breed Yorkies?
