Some people are finding these stories of little dogs acting tough and bad to be adorable. I am cringing inside, because to me, this is horrible bad behavior and if it wasn't a small dog, it wouldn't be cute, it would be dangerous.
And it still is dangerous. A member's relative had their yorkie mauled because he attacked a pit bull. It seems to me this wouldn't have happened if the yorkie had been properly socialized and trained.
No one would allow their "skin kid" to behave that badly, why is it OK for your "fur kid" to behave so badly?
Again, I don't know. And while Pixie is far from an angel, I know I won't have a spoiled little terror on my hands when she is an adult, because I will have trained her better. |    |
