| Do you walk him, Yorkies might be small but they need to be walked like all other dogs. He needs to get rid of some of his energy and a walk is the best way to do that. Also I am not sure if you can do this but I feed Milo all his meals out of a treat ball. He has to play with the ball to get the food out, and this helps him dispense some of his energy. On the down side is there is food all over the kitchen floor, but thats ok he loves it. |

Oh yes, he has a morning walk of 30 minutes, then mid afternoon for 20 minutes and about 5 to 6 before dinner he gets walked roughly 40 mins to an hour, then later hubby walks him for another 20 minutes two times before bedtime. He is a Pommie both he and bandit are pommies, my yorkie scooby died a few weeks ago. But Bandit is not hyper and never was, bijou is very hyper. So walking I do a lot and he loves it. I dont have a yard where he can safely run freely that is the problem, we have an open yard and small. So he must have built up energy waiting. He has tons of chew things and also meat bones and all sorts of things to chew, bite and use his teeth on. He is just a little bouncing ball of fur and is nearing 6 mnoths in a few weeks | |

| Ah, he hs the puppy zoomies...does he run around in circles? When we were in puppy kindergarten we played a games with our dog called freeze we would run around with the dog for a min. and them yell freeze, and stop. Its a mental thing for the pup the stoping and starting tires them out |
