I think you've gotten some great advice and I'm probably just repeating what others have said.... but I will say that some babies are more snuggly than others. My 1st yorkie and my little shadow is Zoe. She follows me everywhere and lays right next to me when I'm on the coach. Very rarely will she sit on my lap but always right next to me. At bedtime she's at the foot of the bed and that's where she wants to be. Now Libby is only 6 months old and she wants to be right on top of me. Literally. Right now she is sitting on my shoulder. I swear she thinks she's a parrot. She doesn't follow me around like Zoe but at night time she lays much of the night at the foot of the bed but eventually makes her way up so that she is laying right next to my face with her little head on my pillow too. They are very different. I love them both but Zoe will always have a special place in my heart even if she doesn't snuggle as much. Just concentrate on the things you like best about it him and also give him some time. On the potty training, I would be hesitant to disicpline him too much. If you catch him in the act, take him right out and give him a really good treat when he goes outside. If you don't catch him in the act, just ignore it. Are you crate training? You might have to back up and start just as if he was a new puppy..... Good luck! |
