How much is too attached? I feel like he is my baby, and I don't let him out of my site- ever. I get paranoid someone will break in to get him, and I don't let anyone hold him except for my mom and I. (which is fine, I guess, he is my baby afterall!) How much is "too attached" to your baby? I'm so paranoid, I just love him so much... :confused: |
You're too cute! You'll learn to let go a little as time goes on. It's good that you're hovering over him now to help him learn good manners and good potty habits. But remember, our precious babies need socializing with other people and other dogs too. They're like little kids and sometimes we just have to let them go out and be themselves. I consider myself to be a very careful person with my baby. I will measure every new outing, check it out, be there an hour early so he can acclimate, and I could go on forever, but I won't bore you. When it comes to playing around, I make sure to pick up anything that can hurt him, and let him just run like the mad man he is. He does crazy flips, has landed on his back from tripping on his own feet (he gets clumsy when he's excited) and I learned to just let him be. I check on him of course, but if he's not hurt play resumes. Otherwise I'd make him into a bubble boy to keep him from ever getting hurt. |
Thanks- I am going to try, I can't let him go! I knew I would love him...I didn't know that he would be my absolute baby!!! After I move into my own place after college, I'm definitely getting more yorkies. Great company...but they worry me :( So so fragile, but so smart. Nothing is "safe enough" to me to leave him alone for a few minutes! You'll get a kick out of this though... I took a mattress out of the extra bedroom and put it on my floor so me and my baby can sleep together instead of his cage tonight. He is sleeping like a baby already...I have pillows inbetween all my dressers, and he can't get under my bed. I have a recliner chair but it is being blocked by his dog carrier. No cords are exposed, he just has his play area there....a SAFE dog house, and his safe toys in a box. (not that there are unsafe ones, just the ones that I won't worry about him having when I'm not right by his side.) |
:sidesplt: You're such a worry wart mommy! Kaji was a year old when he came home. The first few nights he slept in his ex-pen. I couldn't think of a safer place for him to be. Guess where he sleeps now? In my opinon, Kaji is teeny. He is 7 lbs and a foot tall. He is much more durable and stronger than I thought he'd be. They can surprise you! |
I am, what can I say? I worry a lot? :D Mango is a little bigger than the average Yorkie, somewhat over 7 pounds. Still fragile, but I'm SO glad I don't have a 4 or 5 pound one. Imagine how much I'd worry then!!! In your bed? Is that where he sleeps? That's just a wild guess that came out of no where!!! :p |
More like wherever he pleases. He has a tent, a bed, and of course where I sleep. I found him once sleeping on my brother's back. He was curled up real tight, sleeping away. I got up to get the camera, and Kaji did too. He went back to sleeping right by my side. |
Awwwwwww that's adorable!!!! I lay down on the couch or wherever and he climbs up on my tummy and sleeps there. He knows I'm his mommy :) |
I say if you hiss when person come near him, too attached! ;) |
Okay good, then I'm not too attached :p |
...Yet! :p |
What do you mean yet? it's been about ten minutes since I posted the I'm not to protective and don't hiss....but the time has come. STAND FAR FROM MY BABY!! *HISSSSSSS* |
Hehe! You so funny! |
You mean telling kids, "sorry he bites" when he doesn't isn't enough. I should hiss at people too? |
Sure, show person how crazy we yorkie lover is! |
I'll bite them next time. :D |
