I know we talk through emails, but I figured since I was on, I would add my 2 cents! Little Lou’e is so adorable!! I love seeing pictures of him! You can also do veggies for treats, small bites of carrots, green beans or even frozen peas! My brothers dog can’t really have dog treats- so they feed her frozen peas and she just loves them!! If you are going to use dog treats just look for the healthier ones- the ones with better ingredients- You can also do tiny pieces of boiled skinless chicken breast. Use tiny pieces in whatever you use- so he thinks he is getting more when he really isn’t.
Peanut is scared of a lot of things… I think Yorkies are just kinda nutty- if you ask me. He is still small and a puppy – so things to me might seem bigger than they really are- most things will be foreign to him.. just work with him, get him use to things and he will a brave little sweetie! Never let him run and hide- make him confront whatever it is- If you don’t nip that behavior in the butt young he will most likely have that type of actions as an adult.
Out of nowhere Peanut was deathly scared of an extension cord- so a couple training sessions and he was good to go- Now he will walk over them and not hide and shake in a corner when one is out!!
