A co-worker/yorkie-owner told me that I created this problem with Piper because, other than work, I take her everywhere with me, which is pretty much true; she just enjoys everything so much and is such a good and patient girl, whether trotting around a hardware store or being held in my arms for an hour's trip through Wal-Mart. I don't want to artificially deprive myself or Pipe of time together, but am I, in fact, causing this recent door-rushing problem? Thank you for your recent suggestions (i.e. baby gate) and all the support. It's wonderful to feel so connected and understood by you all! |
