| need help with my rescue Yorkie I got a rescued Yorkie (2 yrs. old) last Nov. and he had been abused. When I brought him home he immediately clicked with my other dog, a MaltesSiPoo(spelling?). His main issues were that he was extremely untrusting and aggressive. He also chewed through 3 leases in the first month. When people would come over he would go crazy and when they first came in the house he would bite a hand or butt (not the cute puppy kind of bite). However, the past 3 months or so he has done a much better job of settling down. Until this past weekend that is. He bit my sister-in-law in the butt when she came over. Did not break the skin but did hurt. Also, in the last month or so, he has started to bark at me for no apparent reason. I have tried most everything to get him to stop but he will just bark for 5 or more minutes. I threaten to put him in the kennel and that quiets him for a minute or so. Then it starts up again. Both dogs are pretty co-dependant on me. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, has anyone tried that Plaque Attack? |

| I suggest you find a trainer to help you out. It's very sweet that you gave this little one a warm place to call home. Now comes the hard part where you teach him the rules of the house and that his past is no longer part of his present or his future. Good luck, and welcome to YT!
