My son is 2.5, he doesn't understand how fragile she is but he does follow my rules when she is out of her pen, he is not allowed to run or jump.. he is to do the yorkie shuffle when walking and he KNOWS he is not allowed to hold her. I don't even let him hold her on his lap. I'm very very careful about him and my almost 5 yr old because I know how easily that the can get hurt of killed. She was in he ex pen and I guess I underestimated her safety in there, I didn't even realize he could reach over it far enough to grab her... now I know better and can make sure that this type of thing can be avoided, but I just wish I had been able to avoid it all together so that Bella wasn't paying the price for my carelessness.
I do know there are some strong opinions on here about yorkies and kids, I've read them and everyone is entitled to their opinions.
I am curious what the poster who posted about rehoming my son meant by that ? |
