All she does is sit and whine, and if i try to pull her she just drags. Any tips or tricks? Also, she likes to eat wood!! She chews at my bed frame, my door frame, my basket, constantly! Oh and she bites like crazy. I am a new yorkie mom so I have a lot of questions lol someone please help me!!  |
I use some training techniques that may help with the least training and getting your pup to walk on a leash. You can find them on my site under
Simple Commands. The address is listed below in my signature. As for the chewing, she is probably teething. Be sure she has lot of different toys and such to chew on. Soft ones and hard ones too. The knotted rope ones work well for teething pups. Just be sure that if she is chewing or biting you always, always stop them the moment it happens. Use a
quick and
firm voice when correcting them. (Name & No or an AH AH ) for whatever your pup is doing that isn't acceptable.
