Wrapping presents with your yorkie - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Graleyne · 12-18-2007, 01:12 PM

I have found it to be a bit more challenging than shaving your legs with one.

First gather all presents to be wrapped. Chase yorkie all over the house to retrieve presents that were small enough for her to grab and run with. After a couple hours of this finally get smart enough to put small presents out of her reach.

Next unroll paper and pick up your scissors. Remove yorkie from middle of now wrinkled paper that she has been bouncing on becaue she likes the noise it makes. Pick up scissors again. Remove yorkie from paper - again.

Grab scissors and hurriedly cut off what you hope is enough wrinkled paper to wrap gift. Examine yorkie to make sure you didn't cut her and/or make her bleed because you notice that there is a nice chunk of hair laying where you just cut.

Attempt to wrap gift. Pull pieces of paper out of yorkie's mouth that she is tearing off while you are trying to wrap. Pull tape off yorkies paws, ears, nose, and tail.

Marvel at your wrinkled yet wrapped gift held together with tape and yorkie hair.

You can either repeat the above steps until all your gifts are wrapped, OR you can do what I did and put away the rest of the gifts, wrapping paper, scissors, and tape. Leave them for someone else to wrap later.

How funny! Now try with TWO yorkies!!! That was my adventure last night. lol

chachi · 12-18-2007, 01:14 PM

Funny! I wrap mine after everyone including furbabys have gone to bed

Winston's Mom · 12-18-2007, 01:17 PM

That is way too funny. Mine are noisy and want to see everything. Then they want to climb on your lap and sleep while you try to wrap. Doesn't work.....

Erin · 12-18-2007, 01:21 PM

Mine LOVE to walk on the paper!! lol... Loki will also wait until I roll it out and LAY DOWN in the middle of it like it's a blanket. We save all of our bows until the day of gift giving or they steal them off the gifts!!

Hah! That was so funny..I have yet to attempt this little adventure, though..

zoeybear · 12-18-2007, 01:41 PM

So funny and SOOOO true!!!!

celstu1 · 12-18-2007, 01:54 PM

HAHAHAHAHAHA Too funny!!! I learned last year that I had to wrap on the kitchen table and make sure all the chairs were pushed in and under the table so said yorkie(s) could not jump up on the chair then onto table and harass my wrapping!

hehe

LOL! That is Chloe! If I'm on the floor, and there is a smidgy of lap room, she'll curl up in it no matter what I'm doing.

mizzwanned · 12-18-2007, 02:08 PM

LOL So true! I usually wrap gifts on the floor and Teddy and the girls are all over me and the paper when i do.

barbiesMoMmY · 12-18-2007, 02:17 PM

hahaha. this could not be more TRUE! i actaully got an early christmas present due to the fact that hubby put everything under the tree. Barbie must have missed the memo that my presents are wrapped in BLUE hubbys are GREEN and hers are RED. needless to say for some odd reason my presents were ripped to shreds and one was pretty visible

i suppose it sorta worked out in my favor.

Sookie · 12-18-2007, 02:24 PM
