Linus has all the same problems. He is a picky eater, but I think it's kind of funny, and I like that he isn't crazy about food, jumping on people for it, etc. He also has a sensitive stomach, he tends to get colitis if he eats fatty foods. And getting him to poop on his pad has been a long (and ongoing process!). Just be patient with the potty training, I've heard that yorkies don't like to pee and poop on the same pad sometimes. I got Linus from a great, reputable breeder, so it might just be breed-related because they are so little.
All in all though, the frustration is worth it. Potty training will eventually happen if you keep at it. And I do think that yorkies are the most loving, hysterical, tricky, and fun dogs every (but I'm biased because Linus is my first dog!). Good luck! |
