| Should I walk my Yorkie before or after I feed in the morning? Hey I just got my 3 month old Yorkie yesterday and I'm wondering if I should feed him before or after taking him outside in the morning? |

| Always take him out as soon as you get up as like people they NEED to potty when they get up too. You should do both but a longer outing after he eats. Welcome to YT ! |

| You may want to wait for about an hour after he eats to walk him. Welcome to the Yorkie talk family!

| I do as lillymae does and outside is the first thing we do. However, seeing as how your Yorkie is only 3 months old, I'd wait a bit before doing long outdoor outings since your baby does not have all its shots yet.

Banning Thread Dictator Donating Member | I let out back when I first get up, feed after that, then go on a walk in the next hour. That's just our routine. I find they're hungry when we get up. Not sure if there's a preferred method.

| My boys are starving when they wake up. They use they piddle pads to potty, then breakfast, and then walk. During the hottest part of the summer, Teddy will self-regulate and eat less before we out. Heat is the only thing that has ever caused us problems with meals and activity close together.

| daily routine Agree, mine do potty duty as soon as they get up. Out the side door and back in the front. Then breakfast and then a nap. After they've had their beuaty rest we go out for real. |
