| When your yorkie is a BRAT!... Sunny may look sweet, but he is running this house like a little dictator! -He likes to get my dad up in the mornings by barking at him impatiently. (Basically, he expects him to leap out of bed and run down to the kitchen immediately; anything less...*BARK!*) -He pesters him when eating breakfast for a handout. -He pesters throughout the day for treats. -He starts staring at my mom for his dinner at 2:00. -He monitors my dad throughout the day; when he sees his eyes close he wakes him up with an annoyed little yell. -My mom is not allowed to speak/laugh at certain times during the day when she's watching TV with my dad. If she does, he barks at her as if to say "Shut up!" When he's had enough of her at night he barks until she goes to bed. And yet we love him! |

| Brat I know the feeling! But I guess it's my fault for not correcting earlier. But I have found to my cost that these smart Yorkies soon figure out that one lapse in our attention becomes an ok thing to do for them! One look into their cute eyes forgives a lot!!! |

| sounds like you've been staying at my house! our little guy is 8 months old and he is a terror and i'm not really sure what to do. i was told that he would settle down a little after we got him neutered but he is worse now than ever. |

| Brat Sounds like there are a few more brats around! My boy is nearly nine now and a lot quieter (and cuter it seems), but the barking is hard to take! I have to be very fast on the TV mute button as he hates so many noises and barks like heck. I tried many anti bark methods but he seems immune to them. I wish you luck with your baby and hope you are able to get the bad habits out before they become constant! My boy loves people and is the biggest suck up you could ever find. Others can't believe he has brattish ways at home! |

| I LOVE brats, my boy can be a bit demanding but not controlling. He's a rescue, a surrender and really is a perfect lil boy. My now passed girls I raised from 8 week old babies, spoiled, demanding BRATS, I just loved my lil brats and I miss that in my boy.

| Yup it's safe to say he has the entire family wrapped around his paws. I think they are taking applications for the SRC..........also known as the Spoiled Rotten Club Duchess is pretty cool but she gets really demanding when she wants a treat or if when she wants to go outside. |

| Talk about a BRAT!!! This is Maddie my Grand-dog. I puppy-sit her when my daughter and her family is out of town. She is just a biddy 3.8 lbs but Holy Moly what a Devil-dog. She comes in a Rules the house. -She wakes me by continuously whining beginning at 6:30 a.m so I can serve her breakfast. -She takes over Deuce's fluffy bed and won't let him sleep in it. -Deuce goes over to kiss her and she just turns her head. -She barks and follows me around beginning at 4 pm to serve her dinner. -Then she stares me down until I give her a treat afterward. -She takes over my hubby's ottoman and won't move when we're watching TV. Whew! We are glad when she goes home. But we miss her so much!!!! Shhh! I took some photos of her to surprise her mommy with for Christmas. I think this one is my favorite.
