I think they are puppies maybe until they are a year old, but don't know if there really is a "cut-off" just like babies, when are they not babies anymore? Mine is 22yrs old. lol!
They like to play! that is a good way to bond. get a toy and play tug of war. Or play fetch, or chase. I actually get on the floor with mine. (creek, creek)
Even when you are training them with treats, they like that and bond with you. treats=nice person. Of course cuddling and holding doesn't hurt.
have a wonderful time bonding with her.  Donna  |
Thank you so much Donna for the help and information. My husband is very sweet & made our first year married a perfect one! He knew I always wanted one but knew I was upset at the fact that i'd never have the money to purchase one. He got lucky in a bulletin board here in my home town and kind of talked her down some since she was a little older than the other ones she had. Very nice owner. I'm thrilled with my pup. I know what you mean, they're always our babies. I've got cats that I still treat like kittens LOL.
I appreciate your help tremendously! I like the information that's out on this site for Yorkies...it'll hopefully make me become a better owner. I hope to make friends on here...since I've gotten married...not many of my old friends seem to talk to me anymore.

Oh well. Have a nice evening and I hope you have a Wonderful and Merry Christmas!
