question about yorkiepoo
 

Has anyone ever used poyz dog calming formula. I hate to ask I know that is bad. I feel like the parents that have children that have adhd and I know its bad to give medicine for this. Does anyone have any opinions on giving your dog something to calm them down? Thanks for your help, Tracy

Elphaba is yorkipoo...and she's extremely willful and a crazy energetic little diva. There was no question from the beginning that she got a total yorkie personality.

She's also a little terd with the potty training. She was signaling me to go outside at 14 or 15 weeks, and having almost no accidents in the house. Then winter hit...now she's a little booger..who I swear pees in front of me just to tick me off. I'll be trying to catch her to take her outside, which I do just about every 90 minutes or so when I'm home..and she'll run circles around me for 10 minutes and then squat right in front of me.

We also definitely have trips outside even after she asks to go out, that she won't potty. I've finally figured out its because she wants to go for a walk. Usually the third time she asks to go out in an hour I finally gave and take her on an extra walk (we normally walk 10-15 minutes 3 times a day in addition to potty trips outside).


She used to sleep through the night no problem, now she always gets up in the middle of the night. She was at least always waking me up to go out. Then she went through a phase of getting off the bed, peeing on the floor, and THEN waking me up..and of course NOT going potty outside because she already went. Thankfully this week she started waking me up first thing again rather than hopping off the bed and peeing on the floor.

As to burning off energy....WALK WALK WALK. And teach the dog fetch!! Elphaba is obsessed with fetch..has been since like 12 weeks. So whenever she's getting crazy and I don't want to take her on a walk..I lay on the couch and we play fetch for an hour.

Is anyone out there I haven't heard from anyone in a while. Can anyone tell me how big yorkiepoos usually get when full grown? Mazie is 6 mths and she is already 6 pounds. That's how big her poodle mom is and her yorkie dad is 4 pounds. I didn't think she would be this big? Thanks, Tracy
