Ah, gee! My chihuahua took me on a chase once and we had traffic stopped both ways! I was so scared and embarrassed at the same time. There I was chasing this little thing in circles. She was having the time of her life (she was still a puppy). I soon had a fence put in at that house. When I got Muffin, our yorkie, we had a fenced-in yard for her, but I used to take her out in the big unfenced part of the yard with me (she was a puppy, too) and that soon ended, because she decided to take me on the run of my life. Needless to say, after that she didn't go out without her halter and leash.
I read in one of our yorkie books that you should teach them the sit/stay command just for this type situation, but they have to be so old to learn that. |
