Hi~! I'm new here and found you all somehow searching. I've posted on other forums of issues relating to my Yorkie but this looks like the place for me to be~!

I got my Yorkie at 10 weeks old and this past week, he turned 1 year old. He's been a real joy for me in so many ways. This is the first dog I have ever had and I did research on dogs in general before committing myself.

He's not much of a barker, unless he sees you walking on the street from the door or fence and then he's a real yapper~! And oh, the mailmail or anyone that comes to the door he's worse. Other than that, he's really quiet and I hardly know that he's around.

The only problem I have dealt with really was his eating habits. Does anyone here have/had problems with their Yorkie being a picky eater. I've gone thru numerous of foods and now he's on Royal Cainine.

Anyways, lately he's not eating....very much till early evening to late night. Eating isn't a problem, cause he loves those treats~! I use to hid treats and a lot of them in or around his toys before I go away for the day. This way, it seem to occupy his time, but then he would eat. I've cut back on them, but feel awful and then I end up giving them to him tho he hasn't eaten. Any ideas here~?

Thanks everyone and hope to meet you all soon.
