My beloved

is so hyper i would like to get another or maybe two but i'm afraid I might get another one. I really love him and sometimes when I pick him up his heart is racing which is very scary. He is now 15 mos and I would really like two more but uncertain.... I have even bought the Bach's remedy to calm him down but it didnt work has anyone ever tried any calming aides? Thanks in advance

The best cure for hyperactivity is lots and lots of exercise. Have a daily schedule/routine for all activities: meal time, bedtime, exercise time, playtime and training. A routine usually helps establish a body rhythm and has a calming effect.

My neighbor has a hyper Yorkie, so I do know they can be a handful.

Well he is still pretty young. I would try a few walks a day and maybe a few games of catch.

Excellent advice. A tired yorkie is a happy yorkie.
