I too adopted a yorkie that was almost a year old. We got her because the show breeder said she was to to tame to be a show dog, which was great..uhh.after three months in our house she was not the same dog. The shy, quiet, scared, never barked dog is now a jumping, playing, barking nipping ball of fire. She doesnt hurt but I dont like the teeth on skin. I have tried everything. "no no", clapping, holding her little mouth shut while looking her in her eyes and saying no, good girl when she stops with loves,and nothing works. When she is worked up she is worked up. She was pretty isolated before so now in a big family she is just letting loose and being a terrier. I hope you figure it out and can enlighten me! |
