Hi! Congrats on your new baby and bless your heart for rescuing her! I had the same problems with sophie. To teach her to walk we first let her wear the harness all of the time except for bedtime. When we first walked her it was always by her self so she didn't have quite so many distractions and we only walked around our very large yard on a regular leash (not retractable). Sophie didn't know what treats were either! I bought about 70 bucks in treats before we found one she liked. She may not like the harness so keep extra on hand(sophie chewed thru 4 the first week I had her). A temporary treat you could ry is cheese. We used it til we found one. Most importantly your new baby is going to respond to all of the love you will lavish on them. These are just some helpful hints. There are many helpful people on yorkietalk that will be thrilled to help you! Congratulations!! |
