Consider enrolling her in the Canine Good Citizens training classes.As for grooming, if its a nightmare get her cut short and keep her that way until she starts to associate you brushing her with something positive. |
She will not develop into a well socialized, behaved little lady without continous effort and interaction with her family. She will not get this behavior by "osmosis", enclosed or confined in an x-pen most of her day. Yorkies love being with their humans....they want nothing more than to be included as part of the family. Take her from that pen and let her intigrate with the family unit....she will become more civilized when she is not ostrasized from her humans, that she loves dearly and just can not wait to be with, included into, the family. YOU need to work with her, invest YOUR time and love into this little soul.....please do this for her and for her future.
