| Does your yorkie know when you hurt ? Its strange but true .. they seem to know when I hurt myself... ( i know they know when I am sad ) but this weekend I wore some different sandals and they put a blister on my toe on the left foot and JAX AND JOLIE were so eagered to lick just that spot . I mean they knew immediately I had a blister and they licked like they were healers . They make you smile when the rest of the world has you down .

| Yes, she knows when I'm in pain and when I'm not feeling well. What else does she HAVE TO DO besides studying me every chance she gets? Of course she has alot of activities - she eats, sleeps, barks-a-lot, poos, pees and plays- And, of course, following mommy everywhere she goes LOL |

| I honestly believe they do. I remember on two occasions (one being yesterday! ) when I really was not feeling well and stayed in bed most of the day. Both days, Trixie separated herself from the other two and lay right with me--quite a change from her normal busy self who always investigates every noise and what everyone else in the house is doing. |

| Mine absolutely do They can even tell when I'm tired from overwork. There's a big difference in their behavior. They look at me with faces I can describe only as sympathetic, for lack of a better word for what dogs think. They sleep in our bed, and they usually curl up around me, but when they know I'm stressed or sick, they try to pile up and sleep on my chest or my head. The only thing I can think about that is that they're trying to protect me from whatever is upsetting me. |

| Oh yes they do! I kicked my desk so hard one morning that I broke all three inner toes on my left foot! It was so painful that I couldn't even cry out, I just dropped to the ground holding my breath, and out of no where Addison comes flying into my lap and curled into a little ball trying to snuggle me the way I snuggle her! I was moved to tears, and not because of the pain! I know she was worried about me, sweet little baby!

Senior Yorkie Talker | Lola always knows when I'm in pain or not myself. If I'm sad she snuggles up to me and gives me kisses and she won't leave my side. This morning I had a headache and she sat on the couch with me all morning. She normally wants to play, but she didn't even go for her toys. Then when I realized the headache had gone away she jumped off the couch and ran for one of her toys. I don't know how she does it!

| All four of mine know what the words ow and ouch mean and come running to make sure Mommy is alright. I get migraines and when I have one, Cassie and Adie both like to curl around my head on the pillow while I'm laying down. |

Donating YT 2000 Club Member | Yes, I think they all know when I'm hurting. They lick me and come to bed with me when I have to go back to bed. |

| Gracie sniffs out all my owies, then kisses them all better. I swear dog spit has magic healing properties, because those owies always heal faster!
