Yorkie Bite??? I need help. Our 1 year old male yorkie is usually a pleasure. Last night he was not. Took him out for a walk in the yard. Another neighbor had his dog for a walk by our house. We walked towards each other and the dogs were excited. No barking or growling. As they got withing 2 feet my Yorkie started to get very excited. and let aout a growl. I pulled him away 3-4 feet and was attempting to to put my hand under him to pick him up and he growled and bit my finger. Broke the skin. Not real bad but a bite is a bite.
I have 3 kids and my wife always said biting is totally unacceptable. In the past he has never done this but has growled a few times when a lot of kids were gathering around the dog and getting close to his face.
I need help to get this totally under control. All suggestions and advice welcome.
