Smile New Yorkie

Congratulations on your new little boy Yorkie. I got my Chloe when she was 2 years old, from an elderly couple, cause they couldn't care for her anymore. She took to me right away, but it took a bit for her to get used to my husband, she loves him now, but she does not particularly like other men. I think maybe the voice is deep, try to talk to him softly, and like you might talk to a baby. Just give him lots of attention. I was so worried about Chloe because she also would not really eat unless hand fed, but also after a bit of time this also changed, she likes to eat her dinner when we eat, and her bowl is beside me. It does take a little bit of time for them to adjust, but they will. I would take Chloe outside to do her business and she would just look at me like what is this? and then she would come back inside and pee. I just spent more time outsided with her, after she did her business, I would pick her up and praise and pet her, telling her what a good girl she is. I think she did not realize this was her backyard now, but this also turned around, and now she has claimed her backyard and knows her smell is on the grass, now no problem. I looked after my brother inlaws dog for 3 weeks, this dog would not go pee outside, so I left 2 pee pads in the house, the dog went on them, then I put them in the backyard, and she finally peed outside. I'm sure he will get settled in and you will have a long and happy life together.
