One thing I would suggest is to find a reputable breeder. A good breeder will keep the pups till at least 10-12 weeks before letting them go home. Also will start to paper or pee pad train.
Bentley's breeder did that. Don't get me wrong, he did and still has accidents from time to time(he's 5 months old now), but on his first day home I was amazed that he would stop right in the middle of play just to run over to his pad and use it.
Now for the BF issue. My BF and I are apart at the moment. His is a couple states away helping his sister who is recovering from cancer. It just so happened that I got Bentley the weekend my BR came for a visit. He used to breed and raid BIG DOGS for police dogs. He teased me when I first told him I was getting Bentley. Told me it was not a real dog, just a mop on legs. Well he fell in love with him the moment he saw him when we went to get him from the breeder. Hopefully he will be moving back to VA soon. All I hear is how he misses Bentley and can't wait to see him. I have to video skype from time to time so he can see him and of course I send him pictures all the time. Guess what, everyone my FB works with is in love with Bentley because he shows him off. lol
I said all that to say this, just because they say they don't like little dogs, does not mean that once they hold one of these little guys/gals they won't change their mind.  |
I must say I really do not appreciate those kind of comments and is not the help or advise I was looking for! (get a new boyfriend) My boyfriend and I have a wonderful relationship and he treats me and supports me as good as any man I have ever seen. I guess it is my fault I didn't go further into detail but he would never NOT let me get a yorkie if I told him I really wanted. I wanted advise and to eduacate myself on the breed because when I tell him that I want a yorkie he is going to want to know what we need to do to prepare for one or possible make any changes to bring a new pup into our home. We do have our own house on the golf course which is great because in the afternoons we take Brandy out there and throw the ball and let her get her excercise, the same that we can do with a new yorkie. As far as Brandy, the german shepherd, she is trained to only attack if given the command and would never hurt anyone or anything unless she is told to and is a very sweet dog. And when I say "only attack if given the command" she is trained to say if I was home alone and someone broke into the house, I only have to say the word and Brandy will attack and stop the intruder or threat. The only way she would ever hurt another dog was if one was to hurt Blake or I. She is very attached to Blake but I still consider her my little (if you can consider 110 pounds little lol) guardian angel because she did protect me from a possible mobbing walking home from the store one night when a masked man approached me (I assume wanting my purse) but stopped at the sight of 110 pound german shepherd showing her teeth and her hair standing strait up on her back!! Everyone tells us that she is the sweetest and most beautiful german shepherd but boy that sure changes if she thinks Blake or I saftey is in danger!! But Brandy would show the same type of protection to any family member in the house, even if it was my new little yorkie!
