| How old were her babies? Yorkie mommas dont look to loose their babies until they are at least 12 weeks old....separating a Yorkie momma from her babies before that time, often does have an emotional and traumatic sense of loss from the momma, and the babies also suffer from the premature separation. |

| Life Changes Yorkies are emotional creatures. If something in their world changes, they often need a adjustment period to settle into a new routine. I have watched Yorkies grieve when a life long play mate died. I have seen them pace, when a child goes off to school. I saw one adopt a toy when her baby was born dead, another was very clingy for two weeks after her puppies were adopted. Just give it time is my advice. Hugs

| Good for you! So that is not a causative issue! Maybe she is feeling like since the "kids" are gone, it is MY turn for some extra attention!!! I have two females like that...they get very clingy after they realize they are no longer responsible for babies, and then they get all clingy when they are coming back into season! |
