 Self-Proclaimed Princess
Do any of you have a self proclaimed princess or prince? My little girl just had her first birthday and I swear since the day I brought her home (about 9/10 weeks old); she has had the same little quirk about her. Her name is Piper, though I tend to call her Picky Piper...
She will NOT lay down on the floor or just the couch, she NEEDS a blanket or pillow or preferably a lap.
She also will NOT eat dry food anymore. I have been trying to get her to put on a little weight, even battling with it... I have been feeding her Iams puppy, which worked great for another yorkie I had with the same "petite" problem. (No I am not into obese, just healthy...) So about a month ago, I started mixing a smidge of iam's puppy canned food in with the dry. Worked like a charm for the boarding kennel dogs when I worked there, so why not here right? Well sorta... She at first gobbled it up and made it up to almost 3.75lbs... well she lost interest in the canned delicacy. So now I'm "shopping again" for a different food she will like.
She also hates harnesses. I always liked the idea of not pullling on a dogs neck... She at first hated anything on her, be it collar, tags (especially her tag!) her doggy coat... doesn't matter. Even long hair when the morning dew would get it wet! She now has a small. thin nylon collar with a small tag. I suppose it was a compromise... *LOL*
So again, any of yours a self-proclaimed royalty? I would love to hear about them!
