 help!
I am new here - never went to a forum before - but I'm desperate! I have an 8 mth male pure yorkie (un-neutered, planned to stud). We also have a 2 yr old female (fixed) shi tzu / yorkie mix. The yorkie has become the dominant dog in the house. He takes over our other dogs bed, bowl and toys...but worst of all, he marks everything in the house and outside! Even his food bowl! We both work, so the dogs are "kenneled" in the wash room during the day and sleep in our bedroom with closed doors at night. He is worse when we are home. We have tried the belly bands and he still marks through them and we are constantly washing them and his belly. I am so tired of his behavior! The vet said that neutering "might" help, but that he is probably set in his ways now! Please help! BTW, our other dog is a sweetheart. We got the yorkie to give her company while we were gone. They play well together, but he is a bully. |
