I am kinda new to this forum so bare with me. I am going to be getting a female teacup yorkie at only 2 pounds at 11 weeks. Problem is that the seller is on vacation and I don't want my new puppy shipped so I may go to another breeder with a 13 week old yorkie at 3 pounds. If I get either I will be using a PTPA(Potty Training Puppy Apartment
Modern Puppies - Potty Training a Puppy because I want my yorkie to mostly we an indoor dog and only out for walks and maybe vacation in 4 months. I don't have carpet I have hard wood floor so I am aware if I drop it it may injure the puppy. I just need to know about the vaccination and immunization schedule and what is a recommended brand of dog food for the puppy and what to switch to when the yorkie is an adult. I know to feed the puppy 3 times a day and keep water readily available at all times. I know to keep all hazardous materials out of reach and the kitchen off limits. One of the main reasons I want my puppy to be an indoor puppy is because my dad is a car mechanic and he has a BUNCH of poisonous liquids in the garage so the garage is off limits as well. I also want to know how often should I let the puppy loose in the house after I'm home from school. My grandparents are home all day long but I don't want the dog out the whole day. I'll keep her in the PTPA at night and in the morning and until I get home. I will be the main carer for the puppy. We have 7 people in the house. One 7 year old, one 11 year old, one 13 year old and the rest are adults. My mom has allergies so I knew a yorkie would be great for her. I was going to decide on a maltese but I found out they were hard to keep nice looking. So please I just want all my questions answered before I get a yorkie. I have done all my research and know how to take care of yorkies but I just don't know about the shot and what kind of food to give to the puppy. And one more question, how do you search for discussions?
