| Behaviour Problem I got Lilly a year ago from a neighbor who kept her in a cage and just used her for breeding. She was then 2 years old. She is an adorable Yorkie. She was abused and still remains skittish. Her main problem is when people come into the house sometimes she "punches" them with her teeth. Meaning she goes to nip but doesn't close her jaws. She does this if anyone is showing agression towards another even if it's playful actions. I have tried everything but she continues to do so. I know it's due to the fact she was a caged dog for 2 years until we got her and she was abused. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. |

| Yes I have watched the dog whisperer and have used some of his tecniques. He is amazing. I will not discipline Lilly physically as I do not believe in that and she has been through enough with her previous owners. I just show her a tremendous amount of love. My husband gets mad at me as he says I baby her too much, but she deserves it. She is my baby. She is the perfect dog for me. I love her to death. She is so possesive with me that she barks at my husband when he kisses me or even touched me LOL In a playful way of course. Thanks for the kind words. She is such a special baby. |
