Hi Everyone!

I have a male Yorkie who is 6 months old. His name is Zeus. He is my blessing. Something rather traumatic happend to my family a week before I was to pick Zeus up from the small home breeder where we purchased him. I had already introduced Zeus to my two children who are 6 and 4 and I had already put down a deposit before this event happend. I couldn't back out of getting him although the timing was really, really bad. He has turned out to be the very best thing ever. He is a great loveable and loyal little guy. I can't imagine life without him. He made going through a tough time just a bit easier.

I do have one small problem and would like some advice. As I said I have two small children. My 4 year-old will hardly leave Zeus alone, ever. Zeus has snipped at him before mainly b/c my son will not put him down. Tonight I took Zeus for his rabies shot and he snipped at the vet. What can I do to discourage this behavior? It's not like he bites hard but at the same time it's not desirable to me having him do this.

Thanks for your advice, I look forward to learning a lot here!
