She is venting here and frustrated, that doesn't mean she's being bad to her dog. So lighten up! |
I am just agreeing with her, when some one says the want to GET RID of their puppy, maybe they should think before they get people like me upset, as i love this breed more than anything on this earth, and i have been in the business of breeding and showing for 6 years and have had yorkies for over 35 years, so please don't tell me i do not know what i am talking about!! This lady and her soon to be husband should be sooooooooooo in love that nothing should be bothering them, and a tiny puppy that is living in a house hold where sometimes they love it and sometimes they don't just doesn't set well with me. You need to be soooooo constient if you want your yorkie to be able to bond to you, it is not only when it is bad, but also when it is good, the love should never differ, and the thought of GETTING RID of her should not even come to mind if you are in love with your puppy, so i have a really hard time with Venting over something that this thread has been going on for a long time, and you are the first one to want to GET RID of your dog. What you soe, you reap. I am a member as are you, and i am just as intitled to be on the side of the puppy, now all of a sudden you have never had anything you have loved so much just because you needed her, she needs to be loved all the time, and she needs to know she is loved all the time and is not going to have to change homes because you and your boyfriend can't agree as to keep her or GET Rid of her, or if she does anything wrong, she is a puppy, you've had her 2 months, not very long to even get a really close bond going with the feeling you have been holding about her. Everyone here agrees this is a very hard breed to housebreak, and some never make it, but they haven't gotton rid of their dogs, and some have, I think you are one of the ones that needs to rehome your puppy and you will be doing you a favor, your soon to be husband, but most importantly your poor babie. Or take the advice so many have offered you, and stick to a constient program. Only you knows what you are capable of doing, and only you can make the choice, and you are the only one that can take the advise or throw it out with the newspaper. You have choices, you need to take advantage of everything said on this post, and make up your mind and stick to it for the sake of your puppy. I know you would not feel to secure if your parents kept telling each other they were going to have to get RId of you if they could't get you potty trained, and that takes several years! Best of luck in your choices, i wish you nothing but the very best! Which ever route you chose to take, does not sound like an easy one.. I'm sorry you have to make a choice!!!!!!
