I agree with those who say the dog should not be unleashed when outside. My yard is fenced but it still is a problem when there are several Yorkies at once. There are birds of prey in my area and on more than one occasion, they have dived down after my dogs..there are just too many opportunities for bad things to happen..Scary!! And, I do not live in the country but it still is not safe. Peregrine falcons live in the middle of cities and take rats and other small animals. The fact that Yorkies can bolt so easily is also a worry.
I do hope that you can come up with a plan where she can get the amount of exercise you think she needs-possibly start going to a dog park or just long walks. Yorkies, for the most part, and in my opinion, can pretty well do with the amount of exercise they get in the house chasing balls, toys or each other.. |
