Reunited
December 21, 2007
A couple months ago, when I mentioned to my aunt that I was getting a Yorkie, she had the idea to surprise my two little cousins, Emily and Samantha, with one of the puppies from the same breeder for Christmas. They brought him home today and named him Banjo.
Banjo is only five days younger than my puppy, although I’ve had Bello for almost three weeks now. I was completely shocked when I made the visit to see the new guy this afternoon because of how different the two puppies (both males) ended up looking, even though they shared a father.
For a good twenty minutes the only contact Bello would make, even with Banjo’s best attempts to reacquaint, would be to bark from a distance. They carried on like that for a while, sending paused yips across the room to each other, and then finally warmed up.
And eventually, they were brothers again.

That’s phenomenal! My boy friend’s fam have yorkies too and they are too darn cute.
On a side note, my parents got Rico a few years ago and then one year later my grandparents decided that they wanted a Havanese as well and ended up getting their dog from the same breeder, same father different mother. They couldn’t look more different but damn they are cute when the romp around together.

Awwww….My silky terrier came from a breeder in Hawaii and I had some clients that had a dog that looked EXACTLY like mine. Turns out it was from the same breeder but they were born three months apart.
