Oh, my! I know what you are going through. I had never owned a Yorkie before Gracie. I had no idea! The personality can be so much more stubborn than many breeds. But they are so smart and playful. You just need to make sure your little one learns right away that you are the boss and not her.
My Gracie is so good with me but when someone else enters the home she starts playing her bossy game. Like jumping on people's laps and licking their faces or stealing their belongings. It's like everyone has to maintain some sort of control or she goes bonkers. It's hard to get people to be firm with her because she is so little and cute but once they do tell her to sit and get her to behave she goes back to my sweet Gracie. I love her so much and I don't think I will ever have any other breed. I hope to get a friend for her if I can ever find the right match. |
