Lil Bit, my male 10.9 pound 7 month old Yorkie is unmanageable. My other Yorkie is a 4,5 pound 3 yr old female Taz. She is a sweetheart. I got Lil Bit at 8 weeks old for a brother for Taz to play with. She won't have anything to do with him as he is too rough for her.
He was neutered soon as vet gave OK but it hasn't calmed him down. He's not aggressive. I cannot manage his hyper energy and barking. He is food motivated and I need to use a treat to get any obedience from him. I'd been looking for a new home for him, someone I know will love him and can manage him. Then I look him in the eyes, realize just how much I love him and change my mind. This cycling has been going on for months.
Has anyone had behavioral problems like this and did it resolve? Would obedience training work and if so what kind? I got him from a reputable breeder who said his parents were 6 pounds. He is already almost 11 pounds. My vet has two Yorkies from same breeder. Also he says that Lil Bit is just a male Terrier puppy. Desperate here.
