Manny the tiny Yorkie
Tuesday, December 02, 2008
Ley and Rachelle Vaughn love their little friend Manny so much that he rides inside Rachelle's coat when they go for a walk. He only weighs 1 1/2 pounds so he is quite a tiny dog. 6 months old, Manny "Eats more than he weighs every day," said Rachelle. His size means he gets cold easily so he has three different coats he wears to keep warm. When he's home he enjoys a little toy duck which is actually a cat toy (don't tell him however), since most dog toys are too large for him. The Vaughns got Manny, who is a purebred Yorkshire Terrier from a breeder in Darrington. To learn more about this fun breed of dog see http://www.akc.org/breeds/yorkshire_terrier/index.cfm
