Puppies of any breed are a handful and take a lot of patience. If they can get "out", they will - if they can chew it up, they will!! An exercise pen is a great idea - gives them a lot more room than a crate. You can put food, water, pee pads, toys and a bed in there. I personally like the metal pens better than the soft-sided ones. When I first got Sadie, we had a soft-sided pen and she got her head caught in a tiny opening in it - fortunately I was home and heard her screaming!!!
Good Luck with your new puppy. Everything will fall into place after a while, and you'll be another joyous Yorkie owner!! They're worth every minute of it. |
