| What do you do to keep your yorkie busy? Besides bully sticks. He can go through one a day and I realized that I give him too many bully stix a week. A kong keeps him occupied for 5 minutes and his toys requires me to play with him because he gets sick of playing alone. I was wondering what you guys give your dogs to play with when you can't play with them every minute of eveyday.

| I'm lucky that Jake is content to play alone with his toys if I'm busy. If I put a little peanut butter in his kong and then freeze it, that will keep him occupied for a long time. He also likes chewing on flossies and pigs ears -- or actually, the alternative to pigs ears. |

| I got another dog to entertain Oscar What about those mini tennis balls? Ruthie is really good at playing on her own and likes to push the ball around on the floor and chase it.

| I bought another yorkie too. It has helped a lot too. They both still lay around off and on but they play together a lot. But ive kinda quit the trick trainings kizzy was doing so well with. She will still do most but not as quickly. Maggie will sit, laydown, stand up, crawl and speak. So I think Kizzy helped her by knowing these things. But i've never got kizzy to crawl much and maggie will crawl for a long way for a treat. But kizzy will fall dead from saying bang and she will laydown and cry on demand, plus roll over, sit, laydown, stand, turn around,fetch, and she has a couple of flatter toys she can catch in mid air. so all in all their doing good together. I'm glad I got maggie and Kizzy. They have lots of fun together and kizzy dont seem bored like she use.
