| When you are upset at your furbaby... Do you call them different names?? When Sammi does something to upset me, like, eat my shoes, pee pee on the floor etc I call her SAMANTHA JEAN! When she hears that she darts under the bed! Anyone else have "other names" you call your furbaby when they make u angry/upset XOXOXO Fran and Sammi

| Haha I do the same thing! I call them by their first and middle name. If they have done somehting really bad they will get the whole name. Simon Samuel Foore and Hallie Ann Foore, they know if I call them that they are in trouble and they usually run into the bathroom and try to hide! |

| Saying "No" Dutch most certainly understands the pecking order in the household-- perhaps too much so. He is completely submissive. It's so bad that if I tell him "No!" in anything other than the softest, most loving tone (ironic given the message), he will pee, and not just a dribble. I figure the best I can do is gradually increase the severity of my tone and hope that he grows out of the submissive urination, as the vet suggests he may very well do with age. Not having a corrective word is not an option; I think that would give him undue freedom and avert proper training. Does anyone have suggestions for simultaneously correcting verbally while not inviting submissive urination? Thanks in advance. |

When and IF we scold them, then we spend half an hour loving on them and telling them how sorry we are and beg them not to be mad at us!!!! They have us trained so well

| Simon I TRY to yell at Simon, but screaming SIMON PICKLE sounds more like a cartoon than a scolding. He's pretty preceptive and will drop his but and roll into belly up submission, with tiny ears back and "but but but I love you!" appealing eyes. I can't scold that! Plus for the most part he's well behaved, just a litltle mouthy at times when he simply cannot help himself lol. Jeni |

| Of all of my Yorkies I can honestly say there has been only 2 fights-once when 2 moms with babies tied it up-daddy was stupid enough to try to separate them with his hands in their face, and got a nip for his trouble. Mercy me!! I thought a rattlesnake had gotte him. the secod time was TODAY. We were lucky enough to get the Morris chair that had been Les' grandads. It needed repairs and the man was coming to give us an estimate. The 7 dogs were in an X pen in the kitchen. Suddenly, mommy's spoiled brat, Remi, started a fight wit one of my little choc boys. Hubby is saying "Stop it! Stop it!" Well, we all know how much good that did. Mom( that would be MOI) ran and grabbed Remi by the scruff of the neck and flipped him over in an alpha roll/flip. You would have thought I had knocked him out, he went limp wich is exactly what the roll is expected to do. Remi was as meek as a lamb and wanted no parts of me for hours. No prob-he got what he deserved.. |

| p.s. I am from the south and when you get called by first and second names you are in big trouble so you tuck your tail and beat it. First, second AND last, you just stand still and start begging and prayin'. Yor are in such deep doo-doo that you gotta dig your way out with a shovel. So, it depends on the degree of trouble you are in... |
