"it is also important to teach her that you are alpha dog & not let her run everybody off"
Well, I think I'm as alpha as I can be with a Yorkie, lol, but I just wanted to clear up what I meant with my comment about her and the Maltese pups...she just ran circles around them until they were plumb tired out! She still wanted to play and couldn't understand why they were already tired! I know they were a bit younger, but she was playing with three of them :P. I guess lborman is right, since I do think my Yorkie is perfect! Any recommendations for male versus female and age? I humbly admit...I was a cat person until my Yorkie. Not so sure about doggie dynamics, and while I think most sites say male and younger, they don't say how much younger and I worry she'll hurt a younger yorkie because they are so small until they hit about 6 months, but is 6 months too old and will it cause dominance issues more so than a small new friend she can 'train' to her liking?? |
