Hi! New Yorkie owner here! Hi! My name is Beckie and I just got my first Yorkie today. She is 5 yrs old and I got her from a Dog Rescue group. She is so sweet and small! I m having to teach her to walk on a leash. Any ideas? Thanks!!!:aimeeyork |
Hi Becky!:wavey: Welcome to YT!! :yorkietal |
Hi and welcome :wavey: How wonderful that you have chosen to rescue. I usually let them drag the leash around the house a little just so they get used to it and then outside I lure them with tiny chicken pieces until they get the hang of it. If you have another dog that walks well thats always good encouragement to keep moving forward. Post pics your your new angel when you get a chance :) |
:wavey: Hi Beckie and Pixie!! :welcome4: to Yorkie Talk! There are a lot of caring people here. God bless you for rescuing your baby. I can't offer much help as far as teaching your little one to walk on leash as I am still working with my Abby and leash walking. j Just be consistent. I know there are many others on here that will be able to help you much more than I can. |
Congratulations, and thanks for getting a rescue. I hope that you post pics soon :) |
Hello and Welcome to YorkieTalk! Bless you for taking a rescue. |
welcome to YT and congrats on your new doggie! :D |
Hi Becky, welcome to yt. |
welcome to yt |
Welcome to the group! :) |
Congrats on your wonderful new addition and welcome to YT! If your little one is not "leash trained" at this point, I would suggest starting off by using a harnass for training. Many dogs will struggle and fight against a leash/collar when they are being walked/trained for the first time. Struggling against a collar could cause damage to your little one's neck. :( Good luck! |
Hi and welcome from a newbie! |
