Thank you gemy we are looking forward to bringing her home next weekend. My understanding is that she has been going outside and I'm hoping that is the case. Would certainly like to crate train (it has always worked well with our bigger dogs). I appreciate your concern about the mastiffs and the puppy, they really are gentle giants. Have been around smaller dogs and cats. My daughters kitten who is only about 6 months pretty much runs the house. We will keep a close eye out though.
When you say chew toys what types are most popular with Yorkies? What other types of toys do you suggest? I hear cheerios make great snacks. Do you suggest any other type of snacks/soft food? I will be feeding her eukanuba for small breeds.
The breeder says she is 2.75 pounds right now at 18 weeks, says at this growth rate shouldn't be over 5 pounds in adult hood, no guarantee. Does that sound accurate?
We are looking forward to bringing her home, super excited about having a "baby" around.
Any suggestions on being a new "yorkie" mom. From what I'm reading and hearing it's easy to spoil them and then they can have some challenges, is that more prevalent with female vs male?
Thanks again, I appreciate it. |
