| I'm Obsessed!!!!!! I can't help it, I'm obsessed with a two pound, 5 month old Yorkie. Zoe is absolutely the best thing in the world after my two beautiful daughters and wonderful husband of course. She's just so totally .....there just aren't words. She's changing colors and her hair is getting long enough that she flits around like a butterfly. I get on the computer and she licks my toes. She gets so excited when I come home that she falls over backward jumping for me to pick her up. I just had to post this. I knew you all would understand. I can't share this with my friends, they would think that I'd lost it. A dog no bigger than a squirrel is the delight of my life. Thank you for this forum where we can share our admiration for this indescribable breed. |

| AMEN, SISTER! This is what YorkieTalk is all about! Noone (except you guys) can truly understand the deep love I have and the joy that my yorkie Sully brings to EVERY MINUTE of my life. He makes me happy when he sleeps. He makes me happy when he gives kisses, does tricks, goes on walks, when we go shopping with him in his little bag...when we go to nursing homes and he does tricks and cheers people up......ALL THE TIME! So yes, I totally understand how you feel and that's exactly why I am so dang addicted to YorkieTalk! You guys are the only ones who understand how rightfully obsessed with my yorkie I am, because you are the same way! Great post! Reading it made me smile a lot and give my yorkie one more kiss! High five!

| I can totally relate. I have only had Sadie for ten mos. and I got her when she was 2 1/2 years old. She is the love of my life. I don't even go on vacations anymore, unless, I can take her with me. My parents could not totally relate at first, but they live across the street, and Grandpa and Grandma keep her when I am gone, which is not too often now as she is my priority. The good thing is now they are as addicted to her as I am. It is a win win in all ways. Yorkies rock!

| I know this is al healthy obssesion. I just feel we might turn into compulsive collectors. I think none of us could settle just for one. I don't i could and I still have one. Every day I see another one I want. |

| love my baby...but helpppppppp I dearly love my little Elle. I adopted her when she was about 3 months old. She was supposed to have been litter box trained, but she didnt seem to know that. Since then she has mastered the pee pee pad, except for pooing. I have tried everything to get her to go outside. She will not. I have spent hours with her outside, only to bring her inside and straight to the pad she goes. (I took a pad outside. No go!) Now, she has regressed and pees all over the house. We have been gone alot lately, and i suspect she resents this. We leave her alone in the house, with baby gates to restrict her wandering. She pees at the baby gate, instead of her pee pad. What am i to do? Now, she's peeing all over the house at will. I am going nuts. Any suggestions? I am restricting her movements around the house with the baby gates. ( i forgot to mention she is 2 years old now) |

I would try using a cage or pen. Restrict her area to a small one on a hard floor with her pee pad, food, water, bed and a few toys. I have a little cage 2' tall, 4'x4' square. At least less mess to clean up. I read that you need to teach them where TO GO, much easier than all the places 'not' to go. Maybe her pee pad, and use a leash and find her the spot you want her to go outside.

If it were me, I'd go back to pee pad training. You had some success there. I expect that she got confused when you started trying to get her to go outside. She knew that you weren't happy anymore when she used the pads and couldn't figure out WHAT it was that you wanted. I'd go back to taking her to her pads to pee and rewarding her very heavily when she gets it right. Do NOTHING when she gets it wrong. When she's got the pee pad thing down really well, I'd again try the outdoor pottying. I agree that it would be best to contain her in a small room with lots of pads when you are gone - perhaps a large bathroom or a laundry room? Put pads by the baby gate if that's her preferred location. Good luck!

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Yorkies DO bring out obsession in people - I know both my sons laugh at me and tell me that my girls get kissed more than they did ...and I'm VERY affectionate with both my boys - something about my yorkie girls brings out even MORE feelings and it's a great obsession ! |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I can so relate! Somedays i am so afraid of something happening to her. I love her so much! I never want to leave her and try not to unless someone else is here to be with her.

| Winston has become the center of our lives, both my husband and I can't wait to get home. We take him everywhere we go. We just love him so so much. Our family and friends finally have come to realized that he is our only child. Not that all of them understand the obsession we have for our little boy. I am so thankful for all of you because I know you understand. |
