In June 2015, a few months after we lost Brandy (and I worked through some house upgrades), we brought home two 8 week old Yorkie puppies. After an unusually long period of contemplation, Myra named them Milo and Tazzie. I'm not sure how she came up with his name, but there is no doubt where we got the inspiration for Tazzie's name. She can be a real devil, much to the irritation of her older brother Milo.

It's funny how different these two are, both physically and in character. Tazzie is a fairly average size, about 8 pounds, but Milo is nearly twice her weight and size. Tazzie can easily walk underneath Milo. Tazzie is more of a lap dog, and much more yappy, where Milo tends to be more independent, sometimes even aloof, but doesn't bark nearly as much as his sister.

We've not had problems with our yorkies digging up the yard in the past, but these two love to dig. You can see the dirt on their noses in a few of these pictures.
