Ok to make a long story short(er) hehe
when we got lorelai, my mom wanted dewie- although I was devistated, he was always a bit much for me to handle, and my two younger sisters who adore him live with my mom- so I figured it would be a great home! So they've had him for the past 3 months or so. Well I get a call Monday night from my parents saying that they are extremely sorry but can't take care of him- for reasons I will explain, but mainly because they dont have as much time to spend with him as they thought. So I said no problem, I miss him anyways, so I took dewie back.
WELL, here is my delema. I knew I was going to have this problem, but I figured with dedication and help and advice from my favorite YorkieTalkers (that's you guys!!!) hehe
I can get through this some of my sanity! Ok so I would like advice on if you think he will change in these areas, if I change some things... I will list his problems and possible solutions that I have kinda come up with. Oh and at my moms he was in a kennel for most of the day while everyone was at school
Okay so....
1. He is crazy hyper...BUT I am hoping if I take him on daily walks and have him play with our lab Duke, it will wear him out...and he wont be as hyper...
He also is not fixed...so If I do that, will that calm him down?? OH AND BTW he is almost 11 months
Another problem he has is his teeth, we call him purana because he never lost any of his teeth!! So he has both baby and adult sets in his mouth!
I can only imagine that to be painful, so maybe if I get that taken care of he will be a better baby.
2. He is marking EVERYTHING- so if I get him fix will this problem be solved as well??
3. When I try to pick him up or to pet him (this is new to me...) he RUNS! He's totally playing but I am getting so frustrated!! I am 8 1/2 months prego and when I bend over for something, I only want to do it ONCE. This is def not happening here.
how do i fix this so I'm not getting frustrated when I know he's just playing????
So, my hubby thinks that I am trying to find him a home right now, but I really want to give him a chance. I love him so much but I am not sure If i can handle 3 yorkies at once and a skinbaby on the way. PLEASE give me the best and most advice as possible. I dont want to have to try to sell him
but I also dont want to spend so much money on him to get him fix and teeth extractions to see if it helps and have no such luck.
*sigh* Thank you all for your help!!!!
