Default New and First Yorkie

She is a little girl....I haven't picked a name yet....I just got her about 36 hours ago....I am waiting to see what kind of personality she has.....right now I think I should call her "biter", Pee Pot or Ms Poops Alot.....my other dog hasn't decided if she likes her or not....rescue dog....s**tz tzu mix..very sweet dog but doesn't like the puppy biting all the time....I am going to have to get a book on Yorkies. I don't know anything about them....I don't know how to post a picture....she is 8 weeks old and thinks she is a great dane....very tough and undaunted by my other dog's attempts to not play with her....persistent little thing. She is eating fine and she is being kept very snuggly warm. I haven't had to house break in a while....years in fact...and getting up at 6:30 in the morning to go outside....well, at least I live in FL so it isn't so cold....she pees on paper, floors, patios...grass....she just likes to pee....since she is so low to the ground it is hard to see that she is squatting until the little puddle appears under her....I didn't get her from a breeder.....she was an accidently bred dog....owner didn't know her dog was old enough to get pregnant and wasn't planning on breeding her Yorkies.....she said she is going to have them fixed so it doesn't happen again. The "breeder" was feeding her Ceasars only because she didn't know what to feed her....I have seen that most people on this site do not like this brand of food....and of course that is what I have bought...yes, another trip to the store....I have only given her a small amount at a time because she is so tiny...I am guessing she only weighs about a pound if even that much so I have just given her a teaspoon or two at a time and then I take her right outside....we will do this three times a day....but I will switch over to dry food for the other two times...I am not a fan of wet food. Any advice is appreciated.....So far all my name choices have been shot down by hubby or kids so I will continue to look
