What a heartbreaker ~ and I seriously doubt he is out of solitary confinement for the whole four hours during the evening you are home. (Through your own admission you tire of him during this short period of time) I hope you and Heidi take a serious look as to what is best for this little guy, what you are doing to him is neglect at best. It tears out my heart, can't you at least wake up a bit earlier in the AM and take him for a nice walk or something, come on 15 minutes, what a dreadful situation for Tanner...........  The fact that he has not warmed up to you is the least of my worries......... |
I hadn't seen that - Crated that long ?? from 10pm through 5:30 pm with a 15 minute break??

NODAK - NO wonder this puppy isn't bonding - he doesn't know
how to act out of his crate - that's WAY WAY TOO LONG ...
please take everyones advise and change how you care for this puppy....Yorkies are especially people oriented and you're doing him a big dis-service keeping him penned up this much. Poor little guy - he's just a baby ....puppies love to play and really do need human contact. That's just too much time spent alone for him
