| My York loves me too much! Although most of you will think this is really good i have a big problem. That dog follows me everywhere! for example when i play or do anything on my computer he comes and sits on the keyboard (it's really easy to come on the desk because its by the couch), and of course when i hold him its impossible for some1 else to take him (he had even bit my 2 little sisters because they tried). He won't let me out of the house too.. we must have some1 else to have him on another room playing so that i can leave.What can I do??

| While it is nice to have your fur baby follow you it sounds like you have a bigger problem. Your baby needs to understand that it is ok to not be on you. General Lee has learned that he can be in the same room with me, but not always on me. Gently and firmly take the baby off the keyboard and put into a pen next to you. He will complain, but you have to be very firm. He will learn, they are stubborn, but very smart and he will get the message. After a while, you won't need the pen. Lots of positive praise and treat when he does something good. |

| You could also have your boy in anther room. Every time he does the behavior act fast. Remove him , and put him in a diiferent room. Then after a few min. let him out. If he does it again repeat the action. Keep doing this over and over until he learns not to. Then praise him and reward him with a small treat. He should not ever be biting your younger sisters, or anyone.
