I'm sorry you have to go through this. I'm glad you came on and asked about it, so you know what the options are and you are educating yourself. It's almost automatic reaction for people, if you get bit, you will get angry but some people get violent when they get angry. Maybe he didn't mean to so he doesn't want to tell you. But regardless of that, he has done something to her Mona, I can ALMOST guarantee it. Otherwise, yorkies are social and want to please and be loved and love back. She would otherwise have no reason to be so scared.

To be honest with you she hasnt really been around a lot of men. One or two and one stepped on her by accident and she wouldnt have anything to do with him after that. But nobody has yelled at her. Ive raised my voice a few times and of course shes poutied the entire night but the next day is fine. My daughter and I have laughed and called her a little drudge holder. God I hope he hasnt done anything to her, I am literally sick to my stomach right now.

I'm sorry that you're so sick over this. I really hope everything work out for you and your precious little Yorkie.

Ok, I think I need to clairfy what happened, she was so happy to see him, he sat on the couch and she jumped up next to him and when he went to pet her, she peed on the couch, so he said NO Kissie, bad girl. Which we ALL know is a NO NO. He grew up with 5 sisters and is very close with him family, another reason I fell in love with him. He is very good to all of them, including my grandma. Thats why this is so upsetting to me.

That post made me so sad for her....He did something to make her act like that - no yorkie goes thru drastic changes for no reason and I think you really need to take a long long look at this guy -

Usually if our feelings are telling us something - there is a reason.

MEN LIE and not too many people are going to say - "SURE.. I HIT your tiny dog......" they just won't - they'll LIE.

I feel so so sorry for your yorkie. and you too but the worst part is he could kill her and maybe it would be accidentally - but obviously he's done more than yell.

I don't know why her eyes are bloodshot...but to me it sounds like she's crying....

My Husband yells he is just a loud type of person and My dogs have never cowered to him. I think something else has happened too. I dont think your dog would cower that much just because she is afraid of men either.

Please do not make excuses for him or try to explain it away. he has hurt your dog, plain and simple. of course, he will never admit it. This man is bad news. Little dogs are like children, they love you unconditionaly even when you are mean to them but this man has traumitized your yorkie.

Wow! I just read all this and it makes me soooo sick! I agree with everyone...something has had to have happened to me her this way. Yelling at your furbaby doesn't really teach them anything, but they do get over it and go back to loving us with that good ole Yorkie love again. I am very worried for your little girl!!!
Man....I am sitting in looking at my little guy curled up on my desk and it brings me to tears to think of something happening that would make him ever act that way...I can't imagine! Please take care and really think about what is best for you and your girls.

Wow. I really believe something's going on there. If I were you, I'd carry her around with me while he's there, just keep her in your arms and see if she calms down and realizes she's still number one. If that doesn't work after a few times - something's really wrong. It could be he tried to play with her and scared her or something - but I'd be really careful.

I wonder how he reacted when the dog bite him and you were not around? Why is the dog so frightened it worked its way out of the harness to get away from him?

If your boyfriend didn't do it then someone else did something if this just started.
I totally agree here. I really think you need to rethink this. A dog doesn't go from being so excited to see somebody she pees to biting and slinking and being overly submissive to the person without a good reason.

Well...I read your posts again....and I hear you on being worried about accusing someone before really knowing if it's true since you haven't seen it actually happen - but DOGS send us signals and it's up to US to understand them - and your poor little yorkie is sending you some SERIOUS Signals.....

And she is not used to men being in the house and when he raised his voice it scared her and she will not forget. She just acts so timid around her. I would definitely want to know if my boyfriend is that kind of person before I continue any kind of relationship with him. Makes me sick to my stomach to even think about it. I saw her walk by him the other day, he was just sitting on the couch watching TV and it looked like when she realized he was sitting there, she rolled on her back with her legs in the air and just laid there, looked like she was playing dead. We both just looked at each other and couldnt believe it. I called her over to me and she acted fine. It was crazy....
I am so sorry you and your baby are having to go through this. Through the previous posts I haven been trying to over look the horrible idea that your boyfriend could be/or has hit your poor baby but when you said that.. It couldn't be any clearer.. When any dog does this they are struck with fear and are showing complete and total submission. When dogs are in a pack there is an exclusive heirarchy and your boyfriend has obviously moved his way up to the top in your babys eyes and that could only have happened through violence.. I am scared for you and for your baby.. I hope I am wrong but I fear the worst..

Get rid of the boyfriend, he sounds like big time trouble brewing..you can not replace your Yorkie, but you can get a boyfriend who doesn't yell at your Yorkie. In fact if you want a great companion in a man, watch how he treats his mother and animals..that is the way he will treat you. Good Luck
Excellent tip.. and very true.
