| I hope you are using a floppy frisbee and not a hard plastic one. I think one of those could hurt a Yorkie and maybe even knock out some teeth!! |

| I wouldn't even worry about it. If your Yorkie is little - a frizbie may seem a little "daunting" to him right now. I would just play with the frizbie occasionally and suspect he'll be less afraid of it in time. And - playing with the frizbie with another person (instead of him) might help him become less afraid of it sooner. I know some of the things that my pup was intimidated by a month or so ago no longer frighten him......even certain noises. Good luck! Carol Jean |

| I have heard... From professional frisbee people to get the hard one and feed them out of it.
