Default New to YT

Hi everyone out there in YT....A couple of days ago 3 to be exact we got a 2 month year old Yorkie. We named it MELO since it was so layed back and cool but it is also a name of a basketball player named Carmelo Anthony. The first day he was so scared he did not come out his cage so the next morning i let him out so he can sniff around and get used to his new environment and now he warmed up to us and follow us around. He is a lovely dog and we are in the process of training him. I had a few questions and I will search for some answers in the fourm but thought i throw the questions out there anyway....

1) What age can i put a leash around him and walk him?

2) I found this werid but it might be normal behavior, but when i let him out of his cage and he walks around for a bit and he sees me he gets on his stomach and starts to growl and bark don't know why....


3)He pees on the wiwi pads but he don't like to poop on it.

4)He is in his teething stage but instead of licking our hand he tends to bite it how can we control that do we say no bad or do we shut his mouth to show and tell him that is wrong.


I appreciate any answers and we are newbies dog owners but we want to train him right at this age or we will regret it later....

I am happy to run into this site it is AWESOME.....
