Favorite thing to do with your Yorkie? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Tucker's favorite thing to do is tug of war. He LOVES it. MY favorite thing is to snuggle in bed in the morning. That is the only time he will hold still long enough for some loving and the only time he will let me rub his belly. Once he wakes up he realizes he's not being "cool" and jumps off of the bed.

Hide and seek. I would hide Lacey's rawhide bone under a pillow or something. And she would go crazy trying to get it. She would always manage to get it though. Sometimes I would put it on the coffee table and she would still manage to get it. She was so smart that she would find a way to maneuver her paws in a way to get it.

My Mickeys fav thing to do is grab some thing of mine and stand and wait for me to chase him. Thats his fav game he likes when I go running or crawling after him and he darts in and out from behind the couch chairs and beds. His little stub just wags like crazy you can just see the excitment in his face.So I guess this is my fav game with him . Minnie loves to play fetch she always brings it back to me. So this is our fav game.

I love when he is actully mello and I can snuggle with him and cuddle with him without him biteing me.

My favorite thing to do with Joey is obedience classes! He does extremely well and makes me soooo PROUD!

Sydney'sMom · 11-25-2005, 01:00 PM

Normally our favorite activity is walking. However now that it is 14 degrees and snowing...no amout of winter coats and boots will convince Syd to go outside. So now...our favorite activity is napping on the couch under a fleece blanket.

Actually I really treasure our snuggle time!

My favorite thing to do is walking too. We have a canal that is beautiful that we take walks by. Now its too cold for that and my favorite thing to do is to snuggle on my heated blanket together. Both dogs love to lay on this blanket.

LIL MIS' MAGIC · 11-25-2005, 05:13 PM

My favorite thing would be chasing them outside, play fetch and my all time favorite would be taking them to the dog park....they love to run and play with all the other dogs, at least most of the time, and they act so grown up!!!

lilbumbleybees · 11-25-2005, 08:38 PM

Honestly, nap time! lol He snuggles so close to me under the covers and then when he gets too hot, he crawls out and lays on my pillow right behind my head, b/c he can't not touch me! lol it's too cute! Especially when he wakes up and yawns and stretches his whole body out.

Midge5353 · 11-25-2005, 08:48 PM

Well TJ just loves to snuggle! Snuggle snuggle snuggle!!! Riley likes to play hide and seek, "chase", and keep away (have two or more people throw something back and forth to keep away from him; surprisingly, he LOVES it)

My Kelsey loves this too! She'll get a toy in her mouth and I'll say "gimmie that baby" and she'll pounce like and run around the entire house and we just play chase. Then when she's finished she'll give up and lay on the bed and we'll cuddle..it's cute!

YorkieGirls4me · 11-28-2005, 04:36 PM

All three of my girls love going for walks...whether it is one on one with mom or all together, we have a good time!

rrosenberry · 11-28-2005, 04:46 PM

I would have to say Bedtime is my favorite, he is not much of a cuddler, ( only when he wants, which is usually the worst time for me) But in bed, he snuggles right into my tummy nook and thats where he stays, and if I roll over he runs around to get right in on the other side,, and I LOVE to hear him snoring! He's so peaceful then.
His favorite would be going for a long walk Im sure.

Games to Play With Your Yorkshire Terrier Puppy
Fun games to play with your new friend!

Your goal in early training is to get your Yorkie to like you. Generally, Yorkies like people. Once you have gained your dog’s trust and love, then training becomes infinitely easier. Keep your puppy’s kindergarten positive and fun.

Puppy games are a great way to entertain your puppy and yourself, while subliminally teaching lessons in the course of having fun. Start with a game plan and a pocketful of tasty dog treats. Keep your games short so you don’t push his attention span beyond normal puppy limits or tire him out too much.

Puppy Catch-Me
This game helps teach the come command. With two people sitting on the floor about 6 to 8 feet apart, one person holds and pets the pup while the other calls him: “Puppy, puppy, come!” in a happy voice. When the pup comes running, reward him with big hugs and give a tasty treat. Repeat the game back and forth several times… don’t overdo it.

You can add a ball or toy and toss it back and forth for the puppy to retrieve. When he picks it up, praise and hug some more, give him a goodie to release the toy, then toss it back to person number two. Repeat as described.

Hide n Seek
This is another game that teaches the come exercise. Play this game outdoors in your yard or other confined safe area. When the pup is distracted, hide behind a tree or bush. Peek out to see when he discovers you are gone and comes running back to find you (trust me, he will do that). As soon as he gets close, come out, squat down with arms outstretched and call him: “Puppy, come!” This is also an excellent bonding technique and teaches the puppy to depend on you.

Where’s Your Toy?
Start by placing one of his favorite toys in plain sight. Ask your puppy
“Where’s your toy?” and let him take it. Repeat several times. Then place your puppy safely outside the room and place the toy where only part of it shows. Bring him back and ask the same question. Praise highly when he finds it. Repeat several times. Finally, conceal the toy completely and let your puppy sniff it out. Trust his nose… he will find his toy. Yorkie puppies love to have fun with their people. Games are excellent teaching aids, and one of the best ways to say “I love you” to your puppy.
