Welcome to YT!!! The one thing that NO ONE can ever say about our membership is , "Those crazy people do not love their Yorkies!!!" You will be crazy just like the rest of us, as that baby girl wraps you completely around her little precious paw! Thank you for saving a beautiful, kind, devoted, loyal, pup from where ever you chose her from....you wont regret it!
I see you did not mention children being around...this is great for now....quiet, soft, relaxed time with the little lady is essential....that will gently and quietly introduce her into your family and environment.....I always like lots of cuddle time, holding, stroking, petting, soothing talk and reassurance.....a lot of noise and chaos and yelling and darting around is not very conducive to settling a new little lady into your home....
She is an adult, so her "quiet time" or "nap time" can be spent in a lap or beside someone on the sofa or chair....do be sure she has a comfortable little bed with a blanket she can dig around in and arrange just right, available to her in the room where the family sits together, in case she prefers a bed to nap in.....I always have dogs covering me....4-7 at any given time...in my recliner or in my bed, at my feet when I am here on the computer....they just all want to be right with you, a part of the family, not left out of anything!! If they can not be right on me or next to me, they want to be within eye sight....they have to be able to see me! That is just Yorkies, and yours will be no different!!! Congrats and I would like to suggest a GREAT book...."Yorkies For Dummies"is a fabulous book that you really need to have in your Yorkie Library! You will learn tons of information in that book and you will continue to look through it for reference for years to come! It is available on Amazon.com for about 12.00 - 14.00, and worth every cent!!! |
