Excellent thread idea! I think all our Yorkies need a shrink!
Eddie
* Barks and stares toward the top of the entertainment center. I offer to pick him up and show him, but he runs. He returns and keeps barking and staring up there. I finally catch him and lift him up. He sniffs everywhere, doesn't find anything he wants. Only then will he stop. Until the next day. He's done this almost every day for years.
* Announces when it's dinner time by going to the kitchen and barking.
* He's not a tug-of-war kind of dog and has never shown any aggression toward a human. But occasionally, when he's bored and I refuse to entertain him, he grabs my pants leg and starts tugging on it. It's so freakin' cute that I let him get away with it.
Jillie
* Never goes to bed until the last one in the house goes to bed. Usually it's me, but she does the same thing when my wife stays up later. Or the MIL stays over. She just can't stand missing anything.
* She's the only one of my three dogs who gets along well with the neighbor dogs. When left on her own, she'll walk right up to the fence and socialize. But when she knows Eddie and Rusty are around, she'll bark to let them know the neighbor dogs are out there. Eddie and Rusty proceed to run up and down the fence and bark while she just sits there and watches the fun.
