| Yorkie doesn't like face to face Hello all, My Yorkie does not like it when we try to put our face near his. He is the only dog I know that doesn't ever lick faces, and when we try and put our face close to his he backs away and tries everything he can do to get away. Is there anything wrong or anything we can do to change this? We can pet him on his head with no problem. thanks, Joe |

| Hmm...Joey will sometimes do that, when we get in his face just to annoy him...he's not huge on the kisses unless you do something nice for him (yes, my dog rewards me with kisses...seems kinda backwards that he rewards me...) or he's waking you up, and sometimes when we try to make him kiss us, he will struggle. is he super cuddly or more independent? It could just be his personality, that he doesn't like people in his face or his space. Is he simply avoiding eye contact? Making eye contact is a form of dominance, so maybe he's just trying to avoid that cause he knows you're the boss? Good luck with everything!

| Just a guess that he's very shy & timid.

| You have the perfect dog for me I use acne products so I have to train mine not to lick my face. Personally even if I didn't use any product on my face I would rather they not lick my face. That's just me. (my girl eats poo)
