Dogs bark because it's their way of communicating. I know it can be frustrating to figure out what she's trying to say, but lucky for you, I speak "dog".

She's saying "let me out. Come play with me or give me to someone who will".

Throwing a dog in the back yard is much like you being locked in a prison cell. The difference is, you would probably have a cell mate for company and companionship. She has nothing but the wind.

So now, I'm going to ask, why did you get a dog in the first place?

I understand not always having time for your pet. Circumstances arise or maybe you're just exhausted and need a little down time. I get that. I have that too. But my dogs are in their ex pen or gated into the kitchen happily playing with a toy or each other. And let me tell you, it's not often that happens around here.

I think you need to evaluate your expectations in a pet and decide if your lifestyle is conducive to accommodating one. From what little I'm reading here, I'm thinking it isn't. Perhaps this just isn't the time in your life for a Yorkie.

My 8am alarm went off, which means, it's time to feed my girls. Yes. We're on a schedule. Yes, my phone tells me what to do and when. I have time to eat, time to potty and time to play. In allocating what happens, when, my girls accommodate my busy schedule but it accommodates their needs. Ie: they're happy when they know what to expect.

Get that dog out of the back yard.

Went back and read some of your past postings.....It really seems as if you are not ready for a yorkie or any other dog for that matter. Leaving him in the garage and or outdoors is not the answer. Please do your pup a favor and find him a loving home . He needs some training and someone with patience.

This is a joke!!!!!

[RileyDC]

This was meant to get a rise out of people......

I have seen in the past that usually when they have
no albums or friends, that is what it is..... And it worked.

[Millies mamma]

I think being clingy is maybe just a yorkie thing, I personally love it. I understand there are times when you need you own space. I think they just love to be near their owners

[katy-yorkie]

This is cruel and mean. I would go crazy if I didn't have Buster and Maggie touching me. Sleep outside? You can't be serious.

If this isn't a joke, it's very sad, cruel, mean. Please give the dog away.

I think, IMHO you are providing entertainment...via your responses for a troll....if I am wrong, eh never mind, I wasn't born yesterday. It is what it is.

If this person is genuine, they are hopeless.

Almost makes you wonder if there could be method in this madness....say, perhaps the HOPE that this little dog will die of heat or lonelessness out in the garage or cold and wet out in the back yard, left in the elements?.....or perhaps, he will be "lucky" enough to have a predator take this unfortunate little fella, that certainly did NOT choose this cold,cruel, incompassionate, "human".....a "human", who has "allegedly" been graced with certain attributes in character that animals do not possess. Like an abused child, this poor little dog is hung with someone that clearly not only does not want the dog, but the resentment and even hatred for this pup is palpable in the OP's posts. To this OP, I would like to say as kindly as possible, I am certain you have NO concern for this pups well being, so I implore you to please make YOUR life easier and get this soul to a rescue or even SELL the unfortunate critter to someone that will provide the love, patience, and understanding this creature of God deserves. Remember please, that this little dog did NOT seek YOU out, YOU made this choice, so you can not blame that little dog for your present predicament.

You are so right!!! There are alot of people out there who would love to have this little dog, and if I ever could not care or did not want my dogs "not wanting them would never happen BTW" but it would make me feel better to know I was giving them to someone who wouldlove them!!

Thinking this may be a better option for you.

[gracielove]

This person did not request advice. It seems the post was for shock value. They obviously have no interest in Yorkies and have no business owning a dog of any kind.

[TraciG]

I don't know if the OP is for real or not, however - I would hope a family member or a friend would see the abuse of what the OP i "saying" he/she is putting the little pup through. If one of my friends or family members would do this to their pet one of 2 things would happen. #1 I would have a new pet or #2 we wouldn't have a relationship with them and I would call animal control. Sad, sad, sad.

Dogs, especially yorkies (so I've heard and see with mine) want to be near you. My Dexter is always touching me in some way! Right now he has his back leg stretched out against mine whilst he plays.

[barkingyorkie]

No I dont put him outside anymore only inside...
