Meet…our new baby Yorkie…Cairo:

It didn’t even take 24 hours for the deal to be sealed. I couldn’t eat, I couldn’t sleep…okay, okay…I could always eat. But the point is, I couldn’t get this little, cuddly, furry, ploofy bundle of energy out of my mind. The very next day, I was back in Tiendesitas, withdrawing moolah that I should be saving instead, and bringing home the latest member of our ever-growing family. So now the dogs are a little ahead, 4 dogs to 3 cats.
Surprisingly, our Chihuahua Nairobi was pretty cool with her new baby brother. She’s usually neurotic and possessive, but she was pretty fascinated by Cairo. She didn’t give him a hard time, but she did try to hump him a couple of times (I swear, I really think she’s on the lesbionic side of the fence…). But all in all, they pretty much got along well quick.

I’ve always wanted a Yorkshire Terrier, but I always read that they’re yappy and hyper little dogs. But then I never thought I’d ever get a Chihuahua either, so I guess it’s a challenge. On day one, I already see potential headaches. I don’t think this dog has ever been groomed. He hated the idea of being brushed. For an extremely hairy dog like a Yorkie, not liking grooming is out of the question. It’s like finding a drag queen who didn’t like lip gloss. Besides, he was getting hurt whenever I tried to comb out his matted hair. But it was a battle of wills I was determined to win. With a lot of patience and constancy, I wore him down a little and every now and then he’d give it up and stay still long enough for me to brush him.
I swear, there’s nothing like a cute puppy to keep me grinning silly-ly (silly-ly?!?) the whooole day. Such a cuddly little ball of fluff. Some say he looks like an Ewok while others say he looks like Chewbacca. He could look like a matted ball of pubes for all I care, I just love carrying that little rascal around. His fur could either end up blue or black as an adult. I hope it ends up jet black like it is now.

I’m sorry if I’m rambling like a proud new parent with a newborn baby. I’m resisting posting hundreds of pics of Cairo because he’s such a handsome fella. I truly pray that we have a looong life together, living and loving, a man and his best friend….


Awwww sooooo cute!! Mas cute pa sa’yo, lol!
Cairo is so adorable! I have one dog at home, mixed breed, don’t know what. Been wanting to buy a small dog, but don’t have the budget nor the space yet. Hope Cairo lives a long life. He really is so cute!!!
Grabe, Chico, super cute !!!!!!!!!!!! to the max!!!!!!!!! Si Cairo yung cute ha!!! Pero cuter ka, ha ha ha!
i really love his ears!!! such a cutie
parang stuffed toy!!! nice pick!
cute dog… and that coming from a person who hates anything with four legs and fur is saying something… =) seriously cute dog.
Way to go Chico! Cairo looks very adorable.
Next up… a new cat (??)
oh my gosh! he’s so cute! i always wanted to have a puppy like him but my mom doesn’t like dogs (she kills them… unintentionally, i mean… she doesn’t have the patience)… I’d probably just get a stuffed toy who looks like him… haha…
i want one! but I have a bunny kaya sya muna
oh you got a yapper yorkie alright! he is beautiful. i like how you named your kids – capital cities. hmmmm…i’ve been contemplating if i should get a pet or not. i live in a pet friendly neighborhood…it’s a friendly zoo here – humans and pets alike…however, the spectators are the pets. congratulations!
i want one!!! ano price range ng mga yorkie sa tiendesitas? so inggit.
Super cute! Your next pet should be named Manila =)
kawaii!! made me remember my old dog. he’s gone now. How I miss those grayish black fur.
Hi Chico… congrats on your new baby… he looks very cute…
Let me see.. what’s next in your ever growing family… a new fish? a new cat? he he he
Hi Chico, it’s me again. Can you take a picture of your ever growing family? I know it would be a challenge for you to put them all together in one group. But I’m just so curious as to the appearances of your other babies….
Wow! This puppy is sickkkk!!! I’ve always thought that the griffon in “As Good as It Gets” was the cutest a dog could ever get, but this yorkie makes that dog look like a … um, dog!
Congratulations!
why can’t you post the top ten signs you’re not your parent’s favorite?
awww.. he’s so adorable!!! i also want a yorkshire of my own and your post is convincing me to get one. haha..
btw, love your entries! keep up the good work

I want to die of envy!

hi chico!
congrats on your new pet dog
We’ll be getting a mini dachshund as well, next week.
Do you know of any Philippine-based Forum site for Dogs or pets.
thanks!
i hate you Chico!!! i’ve been drooling for a Yorkie for weeks now! I HATE YOU!!
(he’s such a cutie… *gigil* *gigil*)
waaaaahhh!he’s so cute!
i want a yorkshire too!
How cute~~
I didn’t know they sell dogs at Tiendesitas. How much is he? My baby wants a dog as well, and I’m thinking of getting one.
he looked like a stuff toy!
chico, about u thinking that nairobi might be a lesbo-dog for humping a another dog, its practically normal, especially if its hormones are up(inheat-will show signs of humping objects as well)..
ur yorkie is so cute..what cats do u have?i have for persians..nwy, take care.
eeeknan,dvm
what a cute little dog!!!! i’m more of a cat lover, but after seeing Cairo, i think i’d want to have my own Yorkshire Terrier! ^_^
am such a doggie lover! and seeing your new baby made me want to have one again! he’s such a cutie cuddly lil puppy! kainggit!! hehehe..
oooh, such a cute and cuddly dog!!
my vote goes to chewbacca.
awwwww ang cute!!!! i wanna have one!
hey chico! i have a female shitzu who reigns the house but when i got married my hubby brought his female siamese cat. it’s been about four months already and they can’t seem to get along…
help! how do we make them co-exist somehow???
by the way, another kitty cat will be arriving soon. another female since hubby doesn’t want cross breeding…
wow ng cute cute naman ni baby yorkie. how old na si baby yorkie?
Cairo’s food bowl should be made of aluminum since plastic can cause allergic reactions. Purebred dogs are very vulnerable to plastic food bowls.
soooooooooo cute!!!!
ooh, he looks like a stuffed toy! I knew you’d make this decision… it’s all over your last post [dogma].
naalala ko tuloy si chica, my dog. she died. what an elegant dog, my chica. =sniff=
ang taray ng puppy.. try mo naman great dane.. thats a big challenge..
its me again.. sana si del may comment din dito…
hehehe
hi del..
hi chico, nice to see and read all ur blogs. i and my bf are your avid listerner everyday. hope you will greet us on air. i always wish to hear ur voice on the phone but it’s always and always del who’d answer the phone and bit suplada on the phone. thanks
awww….inggit ako… ang cute nya! i want a new pet,but i swear if i bring home another dog,my mudra will kick me out of the house already! lol
i’d like to call ur puppy, archie
i agree, he reminds me of archie too
such a cute pup! nakakainggit naman!!
so cute!
man, that is one hella cute pup! i just couldn’t help go “Awwwwww!” first time i saw the pic. XD
waaaaah. for the longest time, gusto ko ipangalan sa magiging anak ko if ever ang Cairo. And you gave the name to a pup. Anyway, cute pup naman. Hehehe.
awwwww! such cuteness =) he seems such a bundle of joy, congratulations =)
i don’t usually like dogs but your cute little Cairo made me think twice. I want to have one. Sobrang cute nya talaga. No wonder you got him immediately.
Ang cute niya!
your dog is the uber of cuteness! how i wish i could have one too… unfortunately, my mom’s going to kill me if i bring home a terrier… the hair will most probably cause my dad to have an asthma attack of the third degree! hayzzz…
Chico, Cairo is the cutest Yorkie I’ve seen. He’s given cuter than Jai’s (of the Fab 5) Yorkie. Now you made me what to get one too.
oh, how adorable.
i’m looking to buy my own teacup yorkie, how much are they in tiendesitas? thanks
heya, is she a pure yorkie or a mix? I have a chorkie (Yorkie mixed with a chiuaua) and she looks very similar to Cairo? xx
