Freaking Issy!
God god, Yorkies are quick! Try as I might, I can't always get there fast enough. I feel like I spend most of my time just trying to keep this puppy from killing herself.

Last night we were sitting on the patio when my neighbors 15lb cat walks into the yard. Gabby just sat on my lap and growled but Issy jumped off Dh's lap and proceeded to pick a fight with it. Dh scooped her up, took her inside and put her in the ex pen. He didn't even make it to door when she came barreling past him. I've been telling him she jumps out, but he didn't believe me. 3 times he put her in and all 3 times she was right back out after the cat. That ended with her having to be locked in her kennel for the night.

Then, this morning, sure enough, my Dh dropped about a half a wafer of an oreo on the floor and just as fast as lightening, she comes running through and scarfed it up. My vet said it wasn't enough chocolate to be toxic but she might not be feeling so crash hot from eating it later.

Sure enough, the effects are starting to kick in. She's already begun that glazed over look and laying around as though she's not feeling well. In fact, instead of going to the ex pen, she prefers her kennel. Normally, she won't stay in there unless the door is locked. I suspect the runny poo will kick in here soon and continue for a few days. He dropped the cookie. He can clean it up.

Any suggestions on how to minimalize this one? I am NOT looking forward to going through this again. I went through something similar with Gabs when she was younger.
