| So Demanding Haha, aren't Yorkies really demanding... It is pretty funny. I was going to feed Pnut some wet food mix with dry, He was standing right there waiting, Then I realized I ran out of wet food.. So I had to think fast, I threw some Shreaded Chesse in there. I then went to take a shower, DH was laying on the couch taking a nap.. I came back and I saw a line of dry food, coming from the kitchen to the dining room. At the end of the line was he paper plate upside down!! That little stinker turned the bowl over and ate all the cheese and left all the dry food all over the house!! Haha! Then I hear him at the sliding glass door, he wants to go out on the patio, I told him No its too cold ( raining here) He then starts to bark at me and scratch at the door. Until I let him out.. It is so funny, these guys know what they want, and when they want it you better give it to them!! Another funny one he does, is when I am drinking out of a water bottle he will know when I have a little left, he will sit there and bark and scratch at my arm until I drink it all and throw the bottle to him!! What are some demanding things your furbutts do?

| Why does some of what you describe sound so familiar? Mine has a relatively new habit that has been going on for a few months. If I'm sitting with my feet propped up, she will come and start jumping up and down hitting the bottom of my feet. What does she want? A treat!

| Armani is VERY demanding, Chloe isn't really. Armani has this really annoying piercing bark he uses when he really wants his way- he usually gets his way just so I don't have to hear it anymore. Yeah, Yeah, I know- whose training who?

| Lucy is sooo demanding and she gets her way through her sad little breaths, cries,whines, and big sad eyes. Who can resist that?

| My Muffin did that, too! Kacee is usually quiet, but still demanding in quieter ways. If she gets tired of waiting on me, she will sometimes start barking at me! If she doesn't start barking at me, she will lay down and pout.

| Princess is also verrry demanding! she will bark & nudge to get me to feed her serious addiction to playing fetch! maybe she needs "fetchers anonymous!" sometimes i'll act like i'm sleeping and she'll bring the ball & set it in my hand, then bark or come try to lick me awake! i watch friends & fams babie's a lot and she'll even bring the ball to them...they are only 5 mo. & 6 wks. old! lol. her newest thing is wanting a treat (i keep them on a high windowsill). she will jump over & over trying to knock them down until i give her one. sometimes i'll even pick her up to pick which one and she can't make up her mind! she's crazy i tell ya! crazy!

| Chip is extremely demanding. He'll bark at anything he wants until we give in. He'll literally throw his empty food bowl around the room until we fill it - sometimes he's not even hungry. He'll just look at it when we fill it, then walk away satisfied. When I'm mixing their supplements with a spoonful of wet food, he'll jump on my leg and hit me right behind the knee cap. One day he's going to cause me to fall over. Smokey is so patient and sweet. When he wants something he'll just stare at it or stare at us like, c'mon maaan! Today he wanted to play so bad, so he grabbed his rope bone, put it on my lap and had his front paws on my lap, standing up on only his hind legs, staring at me. I did say to him "What do you want me to do with that?" and he nudged it with his paw and growled a little right on cue, almost like he was saying, "Hello dummy, play with me!"

| Sometimes the bowl quite literally ends up on the other side of the room. The longer we "ignore" him, the louder he gets and the farther it gets thrown. It starts with a little nudge and a low growl, then progressively gets worse. Smokey is funny too... if we don't get the water bowl since we have one of those automatic waterers, he'll be completely quiet until I go to get up, then he goes sprinting (literally) into the bathroom, jumps in the bathtub and starts licking the faucet. LOL I get the hint the second I hear him jump in the bathtub. Chip will get in the bathtub and bark at the faucet. I think it's pretty smart they figured out the connection between faucets and water.

| Couver is the demanding one between my two. He is a ball fiend and is obsessed with fetching. He will find his soccer ball and bark at me until I go over and throw it for him. He does not stop until I take the ball away or throw it for him. Also, he will stare at me and moan until I figure out what he wants... Whether it's that he wants to go outside or go for a walk... When we are sitting on the couch, he demands to lay between my legs. He refuses to sit beside me and will stand on my legs whenever I'm laying down on the couch and won't lay down until he gets me to do what he wants. I think he feels comforted by being close and touching me at all times. He is a very demanding lil guy lol

| Elvis follows me everywhere...I cannot shut a door behind me or he'll flip...or he'll get shut in then flip LOL-poor Roo dog. Elvis also despises being dirty and loves grooming and bathing...but if you say bath or he hears water he runs and hides under my bed...in the middle of it...never wants in or out...just like a kid...if he could talk, "but Mom I'm not wrinkly yet!" Lately its been sink baths to clean his feet. Princess when she wants up will ask...in her own way which is to continually scratch at me until I tell her okay and pat and then she still has to do it several more times until she gets up to lay down-she will also use both front paws and push for the same result...hence Polar Bear Monster aka LOL-she also drags the broom out if I forget to put it up to kill it-no it hasn't ever done anything to her but she has to be put in another room for me to sweep...for the brooms safety. Huh and she eats all my left shoes so I can't use the shoe rack or leave my slipper or thongs for a second...it turns right into her snatch and run to chew game... Scoobers will use his butt to push up against you for whatever he wants and somehow I always know....massage, scratch/rub, potty...something if I ignore him or get it wrong he makes this banshee type sound similar to that of Chewy from Star Wars...it's not a sound any dog should ever make! Scoobers will also sit on me in the most awkward places & positions
