some dogs do tend to gravitate to a certain kind of person. some dogs may seem as though they like men more or children more, etc. what does your husband do when he's interacting with the dog? try to mimic his behavior for a bit and see if he comes around.
i have never seen a socialized dog turn down a nice belly rub or a behind the ear scratch. yorkies were also bred to catch rats so they have a pretty good prey drive which means they're usually find a game of tug-of-war to be a fun activity.
you can also call him to you and when he comes give him a treat and let him get distracted. call him again and then stroke his head and scratch him at the base of the tail. doing this exercise at least once a day will usually make your dog more than happy to hang out with you. |
