| Does your YORKIE like to Sun Bathe? I have a puppy (only 3 months) but since we got him, it has been so cold (it never went above freezing until this last weekend,) but for a good portion of the time it was in the single digits, so it's been COLD!!! Today, I wanted to vacuum, and usually I put him in his ex-pen while I do this, but today I decided to put him out on the deck (he hasn't figure out how to go down the steps yet).........and he has been laying in the sun and he is in heaven!! I opened the deck door and said "c'mon' and he looked at me and put his head back down to bask in the sun!!! I am really glad because I would like a nice safe place for him in the summer (yes he will have protection from the sun etc....) once it gets REALLY NICE OUT. Also with the snow melting, he has been a PIT to clean up, so the deck is clean. |

| Jaxon is a total sun worshipper! He'll find any spec of sun coming into the house and that's where he will lay down. It's been cool here too and no sun today. It's supposed to warm up though.

| Sugar LOVES lying in the sun. Even in the summer when it feels like 200 degrees outside, he wants to go outside and lay around by the pool, even if it's only for 5 or 10 minutes. This time of year, he'd be happy to live out there if I let him.

| My precious Chester loved it and so do my girls. Guess I should get them some tanning lotion As for navigating stairs - once they figure out one, the rest is history. Darla started up about 4 or 5 one day, the next thing I know, she's bounding all the way to the second floor. She's only 6 months old now. |

Donating YT 14K Club Member | My girls absolutely LOVE to lay out in the sun. I have to watch them, though because of the hawks in the neighborhood. Good thing, though, they don't like going outside unless I'm out there with them.
