Donating YT 10K Club Member | Does your yorkie help w/ chores? I have two chores that Trace thinks I need help doing. One is sweeping which means puppy belly cleaning the floor, I've read others help sweep too. The other is gardening. I have a large yard with extensive flowers and I'm always deadheading old blooms or pulling weeds. Trace is very persistant in helping deadhead flowers and his usual method involves standing in the middle of the plant, unfortunately he's just as apt to bite off a blooming flower as a dead one I get a kick outta seeing a flower tucked in the side of his mouth, so I can't get angry with him.....he is just helping momma afterall |

| Bronx loves to help his dad gardening. They are growing a vegetable garden. The other day, Bronx ran in with a potato and set it in his toy pile.

| Yes, mine really like to help with the laundry. They like to get the warm clothes out of the dryer and run around with them. They love to play tug-a-war with my bras. They also love to help in the garden eating anything that blooms.

| Riley likes to help dust the living room furniture. Well, he really doesn't help, its more like preventing me from getting it done. When I wipe the tables down, he tries to grab the rag and make a run for it. He even jumps on the tables to get the rag but he usually just slides across. LOL! What a great little helper, not! LOL |

| Pleeeeeeeeze!! The "Prissy Princess" just watches at a distance!!!! Until I start to vaccum ... what great fun, she thinks we are playing! If I touch one of her toys with it, she runs up and grabs it out of the way!! Now, if I could just get her to drop it in her toy box!

| chores Starsky like to help me pull weeds. I pull them and then he takes off with them. I end up with weeds pulled through out my yard! Some time the weed can be bigger than he is! And like everybody else he loves the laundry, clean or dirty! What's up with Yorkies liking laundry! As far as I am concerned they can have it! I hate doing laundry!!!

| I dont know about helping. Mines liek to UNCLEAN my house. My yorkie likes to scatter my laundry or put her food on the couch. I sew for a living an honestly I can be a little messy(You'd die if you saw my sewing room). Well chloe likes to grab scraps of fabric or feather boas and take off into the rest of the house with them. Its her favorite thing to do. I try to get on to her but she looks so darn cute so i ended up picking her up and kissing her. So she thinks I am encouraging it.
