I agree, don't worry about your little furbaby following you around cause he will. When my baby was little he was pen and crate trained. When he was out I watched his every move or he was on my lap. So once your baby is trained he can have alot more freedom.
Trust me babies will get into anything and everything, which can be very dangerous.

Good Luck!

Ozzie is 11 -- and still very much my little shadow.

He doesn't get up EVERY time I leave the room anymore. He's down to about 6 or 7 of 10.

I've had several different breeds of dogs throughout my lifetime, and I've got to tell you that I was totally SHOCKED when I bought my Yorkie, Sadie. I've never, ever had a dog that wanted to be attached to my side 24/7 until I brought her home. At first, it was a little disconcerting - but after 2 and a half years, I can't imagine it being any other way!!!! She's my little shadow and just loves to be with me constantly.

Believe me, you WILL get used to it and come to love it.

P.S. When she's not following my every footstep, I know she's "up to something" - LOL!!

I LOVE when Alfie follows me around! It's cute! He's my little shadow. My roommate has a 2 year old pom and he's the same way with her! They definitely know who their mamas are! When one of us goes into the kitchen though, both doggies are following whoever is there

I know what you mean. My Pebbles follows me everywhere. The only time she doesn't is if the cat happens by or if she is busy playing with my other dog. I love the fact that she follows me, it makes me feel loved... but I do cherish those short little breaks as well for I have two children that stay close by as well. So a minute of "me, alone time" is rare.

Not only do they follow me everyplace but the other day I was in the bathroom and Max ( I got away without them knowing

) came running into the bathroom at full speed up on to my lap!! You just can't get away

I never had a dog ever love me like my 2 yorkies, Samantha my oldest furbaby would get in shower if I would let her. Lol I'm afraid love and closeness goes hand in paw with yorkies...... lol

One of my boys actually DID get in the shower with me a couple times. He was waiting patiently by the tub and I peeked through the curtain and he jumped right in. Since he hates the shower I blocked the water with my body and he sat! LOL I had to kick him out so I could finish! Little punk! LOL

Boyfriend thinks he can get my boys to stay with him when I walk away...has not happened yet. (he has to shut them in the room with him to do that - if he does that and then lets them out, they race to me, jump on my lap and look at him accusingly as if to say "how dare you keep us away from our mommy?" LOL) If he gets home before me they will greet him and then ignore him and wait by the door for me to pull up. He said they will sit in front of the glass door looking out for 2 hours sometimes... straight! LOL I think boyfriend is jealous of how much they love me and how little they love him! haha

I had Spitz dogs and Shihtzu once upon a time ago and they never follow me around the house the way my Yorkie does. Pao acts more like a personal bodyguard. Even when he is playing he has to know where I am all the time. Very cute and loyal.
