When I was forced to quit my job last May I knew I was in for a lot of time spent alone at home and even though I had a cat to keep me company around my apartment, I'd always wanted a puppy. I wanted to get a yorkie because my cousins had had a couple and they seemed like such cute, cuddly, pretty little lap dogs and I wanted that kind of bond with a loyal pet like that since my cat isn't very cuddly or playful at all. So anyway I ended up getting my little Bailey and she is like no other yorkie I have ever seen. She won't let me put her in all the cute clothes and bows I buy for her, doesn't like to cuddle by me or sit on my lap, she just likes to bite and bark and tear up stuff. I have tried to hard to get her to potty on the puppy pads or outside but of course she sticks her nose up at that and poops and pees on my floors which is frustrating. I love her to death and try so much to teach her things and play with her but it doesn't work. She is 10 months old already and absolutely will not use the bathroom on the puppy pads. Only time she will potty outside is if I take her straight there early in the morning. Sometimes I just wonder why I had to get the rambunctious biting disobedient one who just does not want to be trained, but then again that is always my luck in life! Do you ever just feel so frustrated because nothing you're trying works and all the biting and barking and disobedience is soo annoying you don't know what to do? I wanted her to be a little buddy for me and I got into trying to teach her to sit and to potty and stop barking etc. right after I got her but hardly any of it works and I don't have hundreds or thousands of dollars like all the other yorkie owners I've ever met to just take her to some snooty obedience school or doggy daycare or whatever they have these days. Sometimes it just seems so useless like she is always gonna be so wild.
