Lindsey, if going to Australia is your dream, you can find a way to make it work. Go for it while you are young, or you will have regrets. If Layla is truly the only thing holding you back, carefully consider your options and work it out. Your parents may very well benefit from your gift if leaving her here is the best option for her. Once there, if you decide to stay for the lifetime of another pet, you can get another yorkie. It won't be Layla, but you can love more than one.
