Welcome to YT. Most Yorkies have a lot of energy, some even more than others.
What is your girl's name and what is her background? Is she spayed?
The best place to start is to develop a schedule, a routine. Yorkies have excellent inner clocks. If you do basic things like feed, walk, play, and sleep at about the same times every day, the dog will anticipate these activities and fall into the routine. This has a calming effect.
Walks, play sessions, obedience training, and trick training are all great ways to drain physical and mental energy from your dog.
Does she accept having a harness and leash put on her? What kind of problems are you encountering with the leash?
Maintain a calm, confident demeanor with her. Don't show frustration. She will mirror you. |
