Does your Yorkie like to be hugged? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Dezi doesn't like too much handling. She never did. Only on her terms which isn't often. She's an independent. Cassie is young enough that I am trying to make sure I don't turn her off to affection. I forced it on Dezi and it backfired. I think that's part of why she turned away from it. Cassie is showing signs of needing to be independent and when I try to hug her she doesn't like to be restrained. So I wait till she comes to me. It seems to be working.

Jimmie hugs Gypsy but doesn't allow kisses on the face. So hugging her is a big thing with them. Gypsy tolerates it while looking at me with the look on her face, rescue me.

omg this is too funny cause me and my bf always complain about how Teddy hates being hugged or held like a baby. The girls...no problem, they love it but as soon as we try to hug teddy like if burping a baby he starts kicking his legs out and pushing at us. He only allows it sometimes, i think he gets nervous or anxious or something cause he loves giving us kissed and jumping all over us. lol
