If you had done your homework and researched adopting a puppy that young you would have found out the puppy should be at least 12 weeks old. Next, did you have a well thought out plan as to how you were going to take care of this puppy's meal times, which should be several times a day, (and not left with dry stuff it could choke on) or how you were going to house train? Dogs are also social animals and don't do well when left alone, especially a young puppy. This alone will cause some unwanted behavior problems. That breeder sure didn't have the puppy's best interest in mind by selling it so young and knowing it would be left alone all day. How heartless of her! BYB!
My suggestion to those who want a puppy but work full time is simply don't! Not unless you have someone at home all the time to help take care of it. A better plan would be to adopt an older more settled Yorkie that is already house trained and is ok being left for a little while, and even then come home for lunch to walk and take care of the dog, or have someone come and do that for you. |
