My daughters were spending the entire summer with their dad and I was sinking further and further into depression. During all of this I received the absolute most wonderful gift ever, my mom bought me a beautiful yorkie baby boy. His name is Motley(like the band, he is WILD&CRAZY). He was only 7 weeks old when I got him(yes my mom and I now know that was way to early). Even though he was so young he was completely potty trained in 3 days, no accidents what so ever. I can def. say he helped so much with my depression, and because of this I completely spoiled him beyond belief he is in total control of this house. In the last 2 months he has became aggressive with every one and every thing but me. He doesn't just growl he has actually bitten. I am heartbroken I can't even take him places with me anymore out of fear he will hurt someone. He gets plenty of exercise and is healthy. I think I just need to find a way to become the "pac" leader. There are so many different methods and confusing advice some say follow Ceaser's methods, others say they don't think his way is good. I would just love some advice from others on how they got their little furbabies to behave. (He's a little over a year old!)
I know it sounds weird but hold him to your face and bite his nose (just hard enough for him to know you're not playing). Works like a charm
