New parent needs help!

Posted 02-22-2009 at 09:37 AM by elsasmom

I recently got an 8 month old yorki named Elsa. She was abused and neglected by her previous owners. I have never owned a small dog. In fact I have never owned a dog under 80lbs. I am at a loss on how to get her to eat dog food, potty train her or teach her tricks and manners. I feel bad for her because of how she was treated her whole life but my house cant handle much more. What do I do?

Chloe and Potty Training

Posted 02-22-2009 at 08:08 AM by smithgo9

My little Yorkie, Chloe, will be 1-year old in March. She weighs 4 lbs and is a ball of fire. Potty Training is still an issue. She has no concept that peeing and pooping both fall into the category of "pottying". She is outdoor trained, mostly. She used to use the potty-paper but won't use it anymore! When I leave her in the house over 3 hours, she does #1 and occasionally #2 throughout the house (4 small rooms) Although she will go 12 hours at night without pottying (she sleeps...

I Miss My Heidi

My Dear Heidi

Special you are my dear little friend,

Our days together will never end.

I miss you so much even though you are here,

So far from my touch but yet so near.

You were my true friend through thick and thin,

No matter the situation you always let me in.

Such unconditional love you always gave to me,

I felt I could never return until I set you free.

You let me know our time together on

...

Posted 02-21-2009 at 08:44 AM by Yorkielove1

So this is my first blog on this website. I hope to be a donating member and to buy/sell/trade all of bella's stuff that she no longer fits into as she keeps growing and growing.

Today is her first birthday and she got the cutest little outfit two chew/squeak toys and her favorite thing in the world a chicken nylabone. She loves to chew, but she is such a good girl.

Happy 3rd Birthday Stedman!

Today my little man Stedman celebrates his 3rd Happy Day! I can't believe that he is already 3 years old. Time REALLY flys. I remember going to pick him up just like it was yesterday. Going to the breeders house and seeing him and his sister was just the coolest thing! And then of course when she put him down on the floor, after his bath - he saw a pencil that had rolled on the floor and off he goes, running after it! He picked it up in his mouth and took off like a bolt of lightening! And we all...
