No Longer a Member | You Just Don't Know You never realize how good of a dog you've got until your stuck in a cabin with a group of friends for 2 days with a horrifically "trained" dog. This guy has an 8 month old french bulldog female (I asked if she had been fixed since my little 1 isn't yet, he said no but she wasn't in heat). Anyway, she is about 25-30 lbs, likes to jump up on people, run around like crazy, terrorize all dogs and of course pee on anything and everything. Even peed on one of the women camping with us . But of course, she wasn't being a bad dog (according to the owner) she was just being a puppy. So of course, I point to my puppy, SAME AGE, and ask him to explain. He said there was something wrong with him (Rizzo), and proceded to talk about how Yorkies aren't real dogs. then he blames the other two dogs there, mine and this other guys dog for making his dog act that way. Both Rizzo and this mutt dog were on their best behavior, going potty outside, quiet, and running around with each other without jumping on strangers. But yeah, it was totally their fault that while everyone was sleeping she peed everywhere except his room. And she started fights with the bigger dog, wound up with open wounds a few times during the trip, and tried to start fights with Rizzo, I quickly interfered each of those times. However, Rizzo was on his best behavior, and despite the doggy madness we had a great time. Lots of hiking and siteseeing, and tons of fun. Wore him out completely, he's probably still passed out in his bed at home |

| OK, if Yorkies aren't real dogs, I'm a Yorkie lover and not a dog lover!!! Off course I'm just kidding. I love all dogs. The thing is that any dog is a mirror of his owner. In the past two years that I own 2 Yorkies, I have met many people (some of them professionals in the pet business) that say to me that they have never met a Yorkie that never barks, bites people and pee everywhere and mine are the first ones that are so well behaved and so friendly to everybody (people and animals including). I always tell them that any dog that is around many people and hasn't got hysterical owners, will behave like mine. It's not the dog to blame but the owner. This is not something that you can explain easily to someone with dog behavioral problems. But such people are the ones to blame for frightened non dog owners. It's up to the responsible dog owners to become the ambassadors of the dog race. Maria |
