| wont come Hi all. I have a new yorkie "Kewpie" she is 17 weeks old, and a real sweetie pie. The problem is, she never wants me to catch her to pick her up. I dont run around making it a game. Even when I know for a favt that she wants to be picked up, she backs away from me. This is driving me crazy. any advice? |

| Welcome I think it's common when they're young. Mine did it too even when I knew he wanted to be picked up, he grew out of it soon |

| Yorkies are funny with that , just give her a treat when she comes to you ( and only then ). This works every time for me.

Now he is a year and 8 months and I just got him to come right when I call him. I probably wasn't consistent enough though lol but he does come really good now Last edited by ilovejoel; 08-10-2013 at 10:59 AM. | |
