Wow - I guess it is a normal characteristic for yorkies. That's very interesting.
She likes her food (although she seems to like her big brother's food more - think it's an, "I want everything he has" thing lol). As soon as I put it on a flat surface, she eats up.
Thanks for all the replies. I'm so glad I don't have to go put her food on a throw rug everytime. That's too cute!!
