YT 2000 Club Member | Nosy, nosy...... Nosy Maggie Mae. Today while I was surfing the net Maggie, as usual, couldn't stay out of my business. She always has to see what is going on, that IS her business, she thinks. Sooo, I thought I would take a pic of little miss nosy britches doing her thing, nosy around. The pic is not cropped she was actually this close to my iPad and at times licking it just to check out the taste. She is the noisiest pup I have ever had! Silly girl. Are your babies this nosey too?

| Yorkies Senses are are better than ours. Most Yorkies have excellent hearing and will alert at the softest sound. I would say their sense of smell is just so so in the dog world, but compared to you or me it is amazing. What they can taste is about the same as what we can taste, sweet, sour, salty,and biter. But things that smell or taste revolting to us, can be quite yummy to them. Kitty poo, dead mice and ucky stuff in the grass is fun to roll in or snack on if you are a Yorkie. Even with hair flopping in their eyes, they see quite well, in color and their ability to see movement is highly developed. Sensitivity to touch is simular to ours. Their hair and whiskers are very sensitive. Some Yorkies also feel atmospheric pressure change, and earth vibrations. Some have been noted to feel or sense volcanos before the eruptions, earth quakes, storms, floods, electrical black outs and miles away disturbances. Maybe they still can listen to the voice of the earth. I have received stories about Yorkies that seem to know something is there when we humans can not see, hear or feel anything. Do they see ghosts ? Spirits ? Who knows for sure ? Maybe they were reacting to a faraway siren we can not hear or a baby crying two blocks away, maybe even a tiny earth tremor miles below our feet. Perhaps curiosity isn't really a sense but more a personality thing passed down through the ages. Being a breed that is cherished for it's child like traits and intelligence, Yorkies thrive on companionship. They want to be apart of everything we do. The who,why, what of life fascinates them. If I want my Yorkies to come, all I have to do is pretend to dig in the grass, or cock my head like I am listening or move my head like I saw something and there they are.

| Tibbe is "all up in my business" all the time! LOL. Isn't that how it's said now days?!?!? Whatever I'm doing he's got to sniff and check it out and if I'm at it too long, interrupt! He just hates when the attention is not 100% on Tibbe. That is such a cute picture of your nosy one. I love ultra close-ups of these babies. That eye sure looks familiar! Don't they all basically look just alike? That's what I love about YorkieTalk. It's like looking at family pictures to see all of ya'lls' dogs!

| P-Nut's all up in my business constantly, too. If I'm on the computer, laptop or tablet longer than he thinks appropriate, he'll let me know. He's my shadow all day, every day and "Papa's" shadow at night. In good news, he helped me find the cat today - I thought he'd gotten out, couldn't find him anywhere. Told P-Nut to "find the kitty" and he went right to the linen closet and stared at it. I opened the closet door and there was kitty. Such a helpful yorkie |

YT 2000 Club Member | Thank you, good to know Maggie isn't the only nosy one out there. My other yorkie, Jasmine isn't anything like Maggie. Jasmine is more cautious than Maggie. She will investigate but not in the same "bull in a china cabinet" gusto as Maggie Mae.

| All of you are so correct! Their extreme senses are so strong and well developed. My Cali is a hearing dog so add -18 months of intense " hear everything and then address it" behaviors, sometimes makes me crazy. Sometimes I can just watch the pitch/angle of her ears and know something is going on. Tonight she heard the music that comes on before the news I usually watch and I was down in the basement, so she came to get me to insist that I get up to the living room and pay attention - course, then she got to crawl up in my lap while we watched the news
