It's a miracle - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Toby and i went for a short walk, and we met a dog and owner in teh complex.. the dog was a pom/bichon mix and it was ADORABLE (7 months old, and a FLUFF BALL..... it had the coloring body shape and hair texture of a bichon, and the VOLUME of hair from a pom.... so cute) anyways, toby went right up to this dog and started sniffing/playing (and his tail was UP the whole time

) usually when he meets a dog he doesnt know he puts his tail down and is shy..... its a miracle!!!! he wasnt afraid! so we told eacho ther which apartments we live in so we could take them out and have them play together

I think he felt comfortable with this dog because it walks by our apartment ALL THE TIME, and he sticks his head out the drainage hole in our balcony to look and "say hi".. lol

That's very cool. I wish Eddie had a buddy other than the chi who visits and bosses him around.

Now you can make play dates....That is awesome.

awww, Toby has a new friend! It's fun to watch them enjoy other dogs, isn't it?

yorkieusa · 10-11-2005, 06:27 AM

Oh, that's so nice to have a new friend close by to play with!

It's really great that he didn't put his tail down. That shows confidence!

im totally confused on this point....... he has had no lack of socialization, so i dunno why he does this, i guess it is just the way he is .....

it makes me feel kind of bad like i did something wrong when he was a puppy, but i know i did my part in socializing him... he just doesnt particularly like dogs he doesnt know i guess

yorkieusa · 10-11-2005, 08:03 AM

I don't think it is the lack of socialization, either. I think it is just in a puppy's makeup. He's getting older now and becoming more confident as he does get older. That is a good sign, because it could very easily have gone the other way. I don't think it has anything to do with what you have done or have not done. They all have these different little quirks in their personalities. That's all.
