Chloe is the one that picks fights with the other yorkie girls and attacks them at random...it's a looonnnngggg story but she didnt come from the best place. It wasn't my idea to breed her, but they wanted to...and I love her, so I agreed to take care of her during whelping and raise the puppies. She's a sweetheart to us, and to Maddie, who is her best friend, but she hates certain ones I have and will just go after them in an instant.
What happened to her paw is that this time she went after the wrong girl, Mikayla, who has a young puppy nursing. They fought and Chloe tried to kill Kayla, so I reached into the pile to grab Kayla...because all I could think about was saving the momma to a 2 week old baby (at the time...she's now 5 weeks). I managed to get a hold on Kayla and I pulled her straight up and out, but Chloe was holding fast to her back leg, and when I pulled Kayla up, Chloe was just hanging on by her teeth. Before I could get Chloe off, she fell and hit the hardwood floor, landing on her paw. It's broken, she has to keep the splint on for another 2 weeks at least (6 weeks total from the time it happened).
So that's the story...
It wasn't fun, I had bites and scratches all over my arms. NOt the first time I've been in the middle of a yorkie fight either, my mentor's yorkies get into it all the time when I'm there because they all want attention at the same minute. Last time it happened one of hers bit my finger down to the bone.
I stop feeling pain though when I'm trying to save another ones life. I don't hesitate to reach right in there and grab whoever I need to...lol
What is it with these yorkies?
