I tell him no bite and sometimes hold his mouth shut for about 5 seconds and tap his nose. The breeder I got him from said none of her dogs has acted this way. Did I get the only yorkie in the world that is mean. What if he doesn't grow out of this? My husband is getting very upset. I love Champ so much, I want to help him, but nothing I do seems to be working. |
Yorkies that age don't usually want to be loved on very much. They want to play, play, play! Some don't like laps very much until they are around a year or so old. Others do. They just have to grow out of puppy-hood. Children should be taught not to place a puppy next to their face. Puppies bite. Buy the puppy bully sticks to chew on, so that his need for chewing will be met.
