She is still so young don't worry they will be up soon, trim the hair off on the tips that helps..she is a babydoll :)

Hi! Congratulations on your new baby, Bailey! She's a doll!

have you taken her to the vet yet, or spoke to one on the phone if you go, wait outside in your car until it is your turn to go in, 6 weeks is very young to have a yorkie puppy, and not all vet offices are as clean as they should be. Make sure you do not take her ANY place where other dogs are like Petsmart until she has all her shots. Don't worry about the dry food at this time

I am new(er) to the world of Yorkies too, but I did want to Welcome you to YT! :)

@Micah: ok I will trim her ears
@navillusc: Thank Youuuuuu
@Dblain: My puppy has an appointment on friday, thank you for the tips.
@souther: Thank You !!!! I am so happy to be here.

And we are so glad you are here.:)

@micah: thank you, this website is great for me.

January 17:
Bailey slept all night, she did not cry, this morning she ate, poop, pee, played, and now she is sleeping again in her pink bed in my bathroom, why in the bathroom ? Because my bathroom is warm, i have a pad for dog, but she can see it lol lol well sometimes. If a wrote something wrong sorry, I am learning english, i am from Puerto Rico but now, I am living in upstate Ny, my first language is spanish.

congrats on your new little bundle of joy! it's so sad that the pup came from such poor conditions and was given to you so young. but it's great that you are doing such a great job with her, she's a lucky little girl. as far as all the biting goes, you might want to read up on "bite inhibition" which can be a problem when pups are seperated from the litter/ mother so young. this could be why she is biting so much. plus if her teeth are coming in that could also explain why. when i adopted my little pixie she did a lot of hand biting too. she was almost 5 months old and was seperated from her brother and mother at a pretty young age (unknown exactly when). we would literally say "ouch" very loud when she did it to help her understand that it hurts. sounds crazy but it worked pretty well. wishing you all the best with your new little one that you have been wanting for so long, and welcome to yorkie talk. this is a truly wonderful place full of people who care and are always there when you need them!

You write just fine as good as me and i was born here :) I would not have known if you didn't tell me :) I am so glad Bailey had a good night you are going to be a very good mommy

Welcome.

I am a newbie, as of yesterday!!
 

Hi Everyone, I just found this site yesterday, and I'm so excited. I have a 9 month old yorkie, and have so many questions that I hope can be answered. This is my first Yorkie, her name is Maggie. She's a cutie,...but does not give kisses!!!.. She will lick my fingers, or give a quick lick on my leg....but will not give kisses. I'm so bummed!! She actually turns her head away, or straight up in the air, to avoid my face!.It's not just me!! She gives no=one kisses! I've never known a puppy to do this. I've had several dogs, and they all gaves kisses. Does anyone know what's wrong,,or what I could do? My second thing is, she will not stop eating everything in sight!. She runs around with her nose to the pavement, or floor or grass,,and puts everything she finds in her mouth. Had to take her to the vet last week, because I she was vomitting alot, and aster x-rays, they found bark mulch, in her tummy..She wasn't blocked up,,,but she was having problems digesting it. She is now on vet prescribed canned i/d gastointestinal health food for a couple of weeks...What can I do to get her to stop this? I've tried taking her out on a leash as opposed to letting her out in my fenced area,,,but she refuses to do her "business" unless she is free to run!..I'm so discouraged. She's not at all what I thought it would be like to have a Yorkie!!! She is more work, then I ever bargained for...and I don't know what to do. What am I doing wrong?

Welcome and Good Luck !!!!


Are all these pups coming from the same breeder ??:confused: This is the second one I read today with pups at 4 -6 weeks going to new homes ??

This breeder whoever it is , is not a good breeder pups are too young to be taken away fr their mom and this is why these poor new owners are here asking for help. I hope they all get the help they need , but first go see a good vet .
And I pray all these little one made it.

I feel sorry for the puppy that still lives in the dirty house....perhaps you can help him....and then find a home for him?

@zowian: I will read the inf, I know will help me a lot.
@micah: You will se my mistakes hahaha.
@Tina: Thank you
@Manina: I came here to tell my story, I did not came for help BUT wow, this is my new classroom hahahaha, I am a member now, but I came before. About the breeder, she is not a breeder, she is an inrresponsable owner and yes, Bailey has an appointment friday.
@Geoffrey: I can not buy the male puppy but I did something, I called animal control and I explained to them my story, I told them about the house and conditions, etc etc. My sister wants the male puppy, but she doesnt have the money either



Hi new friends

I know, I made a mistake when I bought Bailey, without papers, or AKC, or vet. checked. I don’t know if she is a pure breed Yorkie, or if she will be a tiny dog (the owner told that) I was so prepared with inf. but when I saw this female puppy, in that cold, ugly house, I forgot everything. I paid $500, the owner wanted $650, I was so angry. This is the third litter. I saw pictures of the others puppies, looked so cute.

Question: Bailey's mom was tan, dad was tan and blue color, why were all the puppies black and red?? (I don’t know if this color is correct lol) Bailey is black/red and she has her legs and belly tan.

second question, how can I love an animal only in 2-3 days??? I don’t know, but I love this ball of hair. She is running a lot. Something new is that she is barking, well, she thinks, she is doing it lol, she is so funny. I think she is bigger than yesterday, I am not crazy haha, I bought her a few dresses XS, bad, TOO BIG lol so she is using the only one XXS that I bought.

Two days is a loooonnnnngggg time when it comes to falling in love with these little critters. I fell in love with the printed words that a Yorkie needed a new, good home and there was not even a photo of him...but I knew in that instant that he was mine!

Congratulations on falling hopelessly in love...:D
