New Yorkie - rescue (have questions)

He seems to like his new family He does still have some trust issues about being picked up. But he's doing better.

I am so glad to hear of the improvement. Even dogs that have been mistreated suffer from anxiety when their surroundings are changed. It sounds like he is doing great with his potty training. The trust issue is the thing that they really need to keep working on. Approaching him slowly and quietly will make him feel more secure with his new people. It's wonderful that he now has a loving home with people he can trust.

I am so happy he has a good and caring family. Sounds like he will be a loving member of the family in no time.

Hello.. I have been busy the last few days. We own a store and we were getting it ready for our Christmas Open House this weekend. My sister came here to YT and made an account and then posted on this thread. She introduced herself and gave an update on Chaz but for some reason her posts aren't showing up.

She took Chaz to his vet appointemnt last week and the vet estimated his age as 8 months old. His weight was 4.8 pounds. He got his first set of vaccinations and his worming and heart guard and everything he needs and he's got another appointment for more vaccintions and they will be scheduling for his neutering.

Hello,
I 'm the owner of Chas that my sister has been updating you on. I have enjoyed reading all the helpful advice since this is the first house dog we've had & therefore the first dog I've ever house trained. We have had him a full week now & he's doing great, I think. He has been to the vet for the first time ever and had a good visit. He loves to go with us anywhere we go and he even enjoyed trick- or-treating in a new jack-o-lantern sweater! House training is going well too. He actually sat by the door to let us know he need a potty break for the first time. He is still a little "growlly" we we pick him up if he doesn't want to be? Still working on that? Overall we're enjoying our new family member

Welcome to you and Chaz! I am so glad he is in a loving home I can't wait to see more pics of him!

[Paisley-n-Me]

I don't think my sister will mind me posting this picture. She mentioned that Chaz went trick or treating with the kids. This is my niece dressed up as a farmer and Chaz dressed up in his jack-o-lantern shirt


...and just as a side note... those are fake (bubba) teeth my niece is wearing! LOL

I saw the pic. He is a doll! Just give him warning when you want to pick him up. It could be he was carried around by a youngster and has learned to dislike being picked up. The other thing to consider is that something may be hurting him when he is picked up. Either way be cautious and gentle with holding him. Hopefully he will get better about it. You have a little treasure there.
