As for the biting/chewing problem I had posted about, I'm working on repeating "no" in a deep serious voice and believe it or not that works better for her...she at least pauses sometimes while chewing on my fingers :P
Yes, it's normal for a yorkie! We call it the zoomies! They're terriers and have tons of energy to burn. So, when they're feeling really wild, you will see them running like maniacs. I'm sure you will continue to see her biting improve. They just have such an urge to chew and bite, I suppose it's hard to resist those fingers and toes! Keep us posted how she's doing...
