Just got home from the vet and she has a floating knee??? Does any one know anything about it?? Should I be concerned??
Also I do not work during the summer and I am not looking forward to going back to work. Any advise how to help Chloe not get separation anxiety. I will be gone 5 - 51/2 hours a day? Look forward to meeting all of you. Anyone close to us??

Not sure if where in MI you are but we are just outside of the Flint area. If you are somewhat close we do have a meetup group for our yorkies almost every month.

Congrats on your first yorkie and welcome to YT! It is so addicting and you will make so many friends- these are amazing little dogs! I cant imagine my life without them!

I am not sure about the floating knee but I am sure someone can give some light on that.

As far as separation anxiety, it is hard especially at her age. You want her to be socialized and then be okay when you are working. I would make some trips with her and some without to get her used to being home alone and to get her out. I would also try using an x pen. I leave the radio or TV on for my two when I am gone because something is always on here. Anyways best of luck and cant wait to learn more!
