One way to get round this in the future is to socialise him as much as you can with kids. Everytime you go anywhere you'll no doubt see kids eyeing up your yorkie - they do with my two.
Ask the kid if they'd like to pat your dog and then you're in control. i've done this heaps because sometimes small kids come out of nowhere and I want my two to be bomb proof around them - if a kid gets bitten even if it's the kid's fault it's my dog that gets put down. (Well that's the law in NZ I don't know about the US). |
