Does your Yorkie call for help This morning I was having my coffee, as usual, on the living room floor playing with Buddy. He went into the kitchen and I hear him barking quietly under his breath. He does it again and I know he needs my assistance in something. I get up go into the kitchen and he's trying to retrieve a ball that is buried under his toys. How smart are they to ask for help when they need it? Pretty smart these Yorkies are. Does your Yorkie ask for help at times? |
YES! YES! YES! Tino will also come over to you and "paw" on your leg and make a noise like "grumphf" until you follow him to help him out with what he needs...usually he wants you to get him a chew treat from the closet!!! Little Smarty-pants! |
Yes, all of the time. When Lillie cannot get her ball she whines for my help and then if Gracie takes something of hers and she wants it back, she will ask for my help getting it back. |
Banjo will bark at water bowl if it "too low for his liking"" He can be sound asleep- open a cabinet door, or frig- he know the sound and is there- God forbit he doesn't know what you are doing! If a toy gets under something he comes and gets me- and goes back to it to show me- it is stuck!! |
Koda is so independant. If he is trying to get something from, say, under the couch and you help him get it then he will just walk away! He thinks he is so macho that he just doesn't need mommy's help.:rolleyes: The only time he does want my help is to get out of his crate but these days he is even doing that on his own. lol |
yes..This morning, like every morning, I was getting ready to let my dogs out. Usually, all three are already at the door hopping and barking, happy to be going outside. As I opened the door, Desi and Millie run out but Ricky (who is normally the first one out ) stood by my side softly crying... I bent down and scooped him up and asked..whats the matter with my baby... I quickly learned that he had a big piece of pooh stuck on the hair of his behind. After cleaning him and me.. out he went happy as a clam. |
Mi when she is ready to eat would drag her bowl to my feet or throw it around.. But now she has ceramic ones so now she paws is and i can hear it clank:rolleyes: .. Woohooo this was my 500th post!!!! |
Yep!! Coffee has just asked for help. We are having a thunder storm at the moment and I went to close the kitchen door as the rain was coming in... next thing Coffee is barking his "big Boy" bark and running around me. Low and behold there was CoCo out in the rain! He was asking for help to let his sister in.:D she is furious with me:( Love, love them. Sheilagh |
yes!!! my beautiful lexy (wherever she may be) used to do it ALL the time!!! and maddie does all the time too!!! |
Mine bark at the water bowl. If I'm upstairs and I know what they want, I just fill the upstairs bowl. Not good enough. They go back downstairs and want to drink from THAT bowl. But yes, in general they will bark at us or paw at us or whatever until they get what they want. |
Ramsey tells me alot of things... If Reese is in her crate....she tattles. If Reese has taken something away from her...she tattles. If Reese is doing something he shouldn't...on top the kitchen table, in the trash...she tattles. And I mean....she comes to me...whining, barking little yips, finally pawing my legs if I don't immediately respond to the whine and barks. Reese says...she's just a tattletail. She is also the doorman...kitty wants in, momma... |
Do you think these Yorkies are just reincarnated humans?:confused: How do they know how to think? That's not taught! These guys actually do think:p |
Yes, Joey does the same thing. I feel so smart recognizing his different barks. There's a bark for something's under the couch. It's not too loud, but it's enthusiastic. The bark for seeing someone in the park outside our window, it's loud. The bark for seeing a dog in the park outside our window is very loud and confronting with a little frustration thrown in as well. The bark for another dog is near my food is different again, it kind of a mixture of the other three barks and definitely gets your attention. I couldn't believe it the first time I heard all this noise coming from this little dog. |

yup, Belle moves her bowls around til i refill them, and she has ceramic ones too...needless to say, i know she wont stop so i have to be quick to refill...lol...and she growls at me when she wants my attention, she barks at the stroller when i forget to leave the flap open for her to get in and out of it, (we have it set up in my room to look out the window)... i think Belle knows more than she lets on... she's so smart and when she's looking around at stuff, she looks like she's analyzing everything... my bf always says that she looks like a little hairy person, i think so too :D |

Whenever Gleason gets something he is not supposed to have Rickles will make a sound different than at any other time and I will know Gleason has gotten something. He has never been wrong, anytime he makes that sound you can take it to the bank that Gleason has gotten into something he shouldn't. They are soooooo smart. |

LOL BellieBoo your so darn stinkin cute! Buddy is getting groomed this weekend at some point. I'll be sure to post him when he done. I am hoping he comes out handsome. We're doing something different and hope he cooperates. I'll tell him he better because he needs to look spiffy for you. Buddy :hearts-xx BellieBoo |

Yes Bob is absolutely human..I dont care what anyone says.. |
Tatum does her "beep" when she needs something. Usually it's when she's left her bully stick on the bed. She can jump down but can't jump up. It's not so much a "bark" but a high-pitched "beep". Pretty funny! And when her food or water is empty, she claws at the ceramic bowl or scoots it around so we can hear it. When I go in the room, she'll have her head craned around watching for me to come. Smart little boogers, they are! |
Pao claws his water bowl when it is empty and food bowl when he is hungry. When he cannot reach his toy whether it be under the couch/etc, he will do a funny low-pitched kinda silent bark and you know he is asking for help. Now he even taught himself to ask for help every time he needs a treat because the treat sits on top of a shelf and he can't reach it :rolleyes:. Sometimes I am not even sure if I should give it to him or not in that situation but I do give in a lot of time.Oh well :animal36 |

Also...Tino likes to "remind me " that he wants fresh water in his bowl by dumping it completely upside down and dumping all the water in it on the floor. Then he looks at me like "Mom, looks like you better get up and get me and Lola some water...something seems to be wrong with the bowl!" |
Not only does Zoe girl let us know when anything is amiss... she also 'corrects' her big brother when he is naughty... She will growl and do a half bark at him... it almost sounds like she is grumbling at him. I REALLY need to get that on video! |
Sophie always lets us know if our kitty needs something or is into something. :D |
