Hello,
I'm wondering if there are Yorkies owners out there who have ever felt panic in regard to having puppies, training them, etc. You know, sometimes I get a feeling of panic in my tummy and I feel scared and a little trapped. It's not the Yorkies fault by no means!
Today I had trouble catching Annie to come inside the house after being with them both outside (Annie & Susie). I used a treat to have them "come" and then I pick them up and give them their treats from my hand while holding them. Well this afternoon, Annie wouldn't "bite." She was not going to let me pick her up. So then I am trying to catch her...going back and forth in the yard...trying to be nice, trying the treat thing, trying to entice the her by getting excited that Susie is going in...and finally I start getting mad and start yelling. Well of course - that doesn't work but I was mad and frustrated. I finally called my husband to help me (he was in the house with Susie) and we got her in (by the treat method). It's cold out and it would seem to me that she would get so cold that she would let us pick her up...gosh I just don't know!!
I go in the house and cry like a baby because I'm pooped and frustrated. (Sorry - its the truth). I start worrying as to how I am going to get her to come in if at times when my husband isn't around! That scares me more! Oh Gosh! I apologized to Annie and my husband for being mad.
It's only been a week that they have been here (Annie and Susie) and truly I am happy, but tired, frustrated, elated, worrier, feel trapped at times (watching them all the time or checking on them to during housebreaking time), etc. I'm sorry this all sounds like whining! Well I guess it is whining.
Other Yorkie Mom's & Dads feel like this at times or do you remember when you did?
Yorkie Love,
