Yay! I am so glad Dash is home with you tonight.. You're gonna have to take pictures to share with us
I usually set my yorkies food out just before we have our dinner. They are nice and full and hardly bother us. I think the 1st few weeks they were probably at our feet but since we never fed them from our table food they took the hint and never bother us now.
The 1st thing I taught both of mine to do it sit, its really easy to teach them especially with a treat as a reward.
