| What are your yorkies biggest fears? TeeJay is most afraid of heights. Everytime I take him to the mall and we start to go up the escalators, I feel his claws gripping onto me. When we reach the 2nd floor, he trembles like crazy. Good thing I live in a 1 story house! He is also afraid of lizards. A lizard ran into my house one day and TeeJay wouldnt come out from behind the furniture. Even when my fiance shooed the lizard out, he was still too scared to come out. So I'm wondering, what are your yorkie's biggest fears? |

| Ahhhhhhh poor baby. The lizard thing is really funny! Buddy was afraid of nothing. He is not timid in anyway until I recently put coins in a can to keep him from barking when I leave the house. This he is afraid of! |

| Punkin has the weirdest fear of those red/orange road cones they use in construction. She is so terrified. She goes nuts and I'm sure she is saying 'Lexie help me those are aliens and they EAT Yorkies! '

| For some strange reason, Hobbs has developed a fear of riding in the car. At least I think it's a fear...it could be anxiety or something else, but I know it's SOMETHING. He gets really really excited when I tell him that it's time to "go bye bye," but when we get in the car he starts shaking really badly and starts panting. He is never relaxed. Since we got Hootie, we have been making both of them ride in a large wire crate together whenever we go "bye bye" in the car. Hootie just cuddles up and goes right to sleep. But Hobbs is too busy freaking out the whole time to even think about laying down. He does this whether he is riding in the crate or not. I thought that making him ride in the crate would make him feel more secure, but it hasn't helped. I don't know what is wrong with him. I feel very bad for him. I have only taken Hootie in the car one or two times without being the crate and that was to go to the vet. She does not like riding in the car outside her crate. She shakes very badly. She loves her crate so that has become her permanent car riding spot. I have a small plastic kennel that I put her in if Hobbs isn't coming along. So, to sum it up, I guess riding in the car is both of mine's biggest fear. I hate that they are scared of it. |

| Logan is terrified of the new commercial where they have all these people walking around in a school with squeakie shoes. Everytime it comes on he goes absolutely nuts.

| Gabby's fear is being left behind when we walk out the door with suitcases in hand - she wants to go!!! And the only fear we've found with Gage is he's afraid of ANY toy that has a squeaker in it or makes any "weird" noise - won't go near them!!!

| fear...? My little 4lb yorkie is afraid of nothing and i mean N-O-T-H-I-N-G! He was skeptical of the blow dryer at first, but that was just an inconvenience. He runs up to anyone and anything to play with it. It scares me though because the first time he met my parent's dog (half rotweiler have German Sheppard) he just ran at her and started jumping and nipping her ears.... She isn't a friendly dog and has actually attacked another dog (almost killed it) that was on our front lawn when my little sister and brother were out ther (she jumped out of the second story window. She is very protective, but fortunately she has fallen in love w/Tony. it is adorable... but yep, my pup has no fear. |

| You know those things kids have that are like big bouncy balls that they sit on...have a handle....and then bounce around on them? Trixie is not too fond of those. Hmmm...maybe because a giggling 5 y.o. attached to one by the butt occasionally shoots by w/out warning. |

| I think Georgie is a scaredy cat (dog). He hates the vacuum, hairdryer, any loud noises, he runs when I carry anything big like he is scared I will drop it (never have before), he is scared of the vet, and takes him a few minutes to get over being at the groomer.

| I just very recently learned that our new pup is deathly afraid of thunder and lightning! We had storms for a few days in a row last week and let's just say, I got NO SLEEP whatsoever!!!! He just cries and jumps around like a lunatic! Then he buries himself soo deep inside my chest or my shoulder its like he is actually trying to get inside me, its horrible, poor little thing! |
