Typical Yorkie Personality? Hi! My yorkie is 17 months old, and he follows me around EVERYWHERE! It's like he is glued to me. He follows me from room to room, and if I happen to go in a room without him and close the door, he will lay down outside the door and whine until I come out. I love this, but it drives my husband crazy! My question is, are all yorkies so attached? |
They are all pretty social but not all that attached |
My Lab does that more than my Yorkies. ;p |
Roxie sometimes follows us around, but she only gets really upset when we both go upstairs (where the bedrooms are). She doesn't like going upstairs, so a lot of the time she will sit at the bottom of the staircase and bark until we come down. Very rarely will she get brave and come up. |
My yorkie does it too. She follows me everywhere. |
Ziva follows me, not so much to whine but to see what I am doing. When she waited at the bedroom door I made a game of putting my fingers under the door and tickling her, it has turned into a fun game for everyone, every door! |
I've always found them to be very attached to their owners. Mine have always followed my husband or I around everywhere we go - you'll never have peace and solitude in the bathroom again! |
Foxy follows me EVERYWHERE...The only time she wont get up to follow me is if I am still within her eyesight. But you can feel those beady little eyes just staring you down, waiting for me to walk into the next room so she can jump up and follow me..lol.. |
Yep, I have learned to make certain that doors don't close until both my shadows are safely through. I didn't realize how bad it was until we stayed at my in-laws for a few days due to a funeral. They were the ones who pointed it out. |
Princess is completely my shadow. When she's sleeping I feel bad about leaving whichever room, as 9/10 times she flies up to follow me. If I do shut a door she barks like she cannot believe I'd do such a thing! lol. The only place she'll leave me alone at is the kitchen if I'm cooking, it's like she some how knows it's dangerous. |
Yep! My Riley follows me Everywhere.... but.... my Schipperke, did, as well. He always had to be in the same room as me. :) |

A little off topic - I can't believe you owned a Schipperke! I have always thought they were such cute dogs at dog shows, but I have never met anyone who owned one! |
It's instinct. Dogs are pack animals, and the pack must stay together! Some just have a stronger pack instinct than others. |

My Lexi and Riley are very much this way. Lexi is attached to me all the time if she sleeps she is touching me so she knows if I move she will not be left behind.:) Lily sometimes but not near as much I wonder if it is because she was born here and just very comfortable. And Riley attaches to anyone who is sitting still. Otherwise he follows every where also. They just love being around people. Enjoy it don't fight it :) |
My two follow me everywhere. They can be in a dead sleep and if I go to another room, I turn around and they are right behind me. DH says if I go outside they lay by the back door waiting for me to come back inside. |
I have a Bichon, long-haired Chihuahua, and visiting Yorkie right now and all three of them do that. They don't want me to go anywhere without them, mom might go out a door they didn't know was there and they would miss something! My little girl Bichon used to lay with her nose stuck under the door of any room I went into without taking her with me. I wasn't allowed to go to the bathroom, make the bed, even run the vacuum unless she was right there with me. Jeanette Jeanette |
Jackson will follow me into another room but he allows me to go to the bathroom without following me or whining or anything. Like right now I am sitting in my bedroom and he's out laying on the couch but he knows I am here and close so he is okay. If I were to walk upstairs, he would too, LOL |
