A big dog could seriously damage your tiny babe just by stepping on her...Others will provide excellent suggestions and good advice, but from me, just her love her, be patient, and continue to keep a close eye on her---well, how could you not, she sounds totally lovable and adorable!! Great way for you to start the NEW YEAR with a little Yorkie by your side, in your lap, etc.!! |
I learned to scan the environment like a cop since my Otto wants to chase all things moving and likes to challenge bigger male dogs. That is my main concern as I live in a condo across a Huskie and I got traumatized after watching how easily a huskie killed a poodle in You Tube. I went to see a cycling event near our house with him and I saw many people with big dogs around, I looked away for a sec and suddenly I saw this woman carrying a huge Pitbull coming toward us and my Otto started to bark at him. I picked him up and held him against my chest until the pit walked by, he didnt even looked at us, fortunately he seemed like a very well socialized pit bull .
