Are all yorkies little weirdos? Or is it just mine?

[SWHouston]

OH yea...
My guys Howl, I don't think that many of our Yorkies do that.

It's mainly when they see other Dogs, always at a distance. When it was just Sneakers and Becca, they did it in Harmony. Surprisingly, Becca has a deeper voice then does Sneakers, who outweighs her by 5 lbs. But since Ickey has arrived and joined them, it's more like a Minor 7th

OMG! she just started this! I couldnt for the life of me figure out what she is doing...I was starting to wonder if dogs can develop some kind of ocd ritual! I finally give up and walk away and eventually she eats the food like a wolf..but its nose around, sniff, nose around sniff, try and push wall to wall carpet over the bowl, sniff, sniff around the bowl, sniff the carpet or whatever its on, sniff...take a small taste, sniff, nose around, sniff then finally GULP

I love your 'joey' story, but it is definitely not just your Yorkie.

Brody and Mia both have all kinds of weirdnesses...too many to list, but yeah, Mia covers food, 'sings' (howls) and is teaching Brody, who now 'sings with her...my Yorkie-Poo 'sang' too...Brody likes to cuddle in your clothes and Mia, too, but is not as insistent about it. Brody also buries himself behind pillows and under blankets...both 'fluff' bed covers and especially love fleece. Brody is incredibly toy centric and very neat with his toys, even picking them up and putting them away in one of his two (2) 'toy boxes'...our bed or the love seat...and he knows which lives where. They both choose their clothes, Mia 'teases' Brody...just to get him going. Brody wants to be carried out to potty and Mia is picking that up, too...not all the time but they like the view and 'sniffing' height. Brody, however, 'guides' me to where he wants his feet to touch down...or rather he throws a paw against my chest and/or neck/face and spins his head around to look at me like "Here? NO!!! Are ya crazy?" until HE finds an acceptable spot in the yard. If I try to put him down where he doesn't want to be, he 'air climbs' backwards trying to get back up before the feet touch. Both Brody and Mia 'help' me pick them up by 'launching' themselves up as I start picking them up. I could go on...

they are all goofy, that is what is so great about them, too smart for their own good. Chester when I leave for work will turn his head and not look at me, and now his new thing is he has to have a treat after he eats his dog food, and he comes in after Im out of the shower to lick the water off my legs

When I tell Joey its time for bed he goes to my room jumps on my bed and I brush him. Then I go brush my teeth and he always smells my breath, just to make sure. LOL

Georgie does that too! Maybe him and Jessie need to talk because he won't his food out of a bowl

My pups practically jump into the shower when they hear the water turn off so they can lick the water off my legs & toes. Then they follow me to my bedroom & when I try to put lotion on, they try to eat that too.

We have french doors separating our front door & foyer from the rest of the house. When I come home, my little girl jumps sooo high up in the air. She doesn't jump at the door or at me...she jumps vertically. It's so weird, but so cute to see her from that angle through the glass panes. As soon as she sees I'm getting ready to open the French doors, she'll sit, wait until I'm inside & the french doors are closed, and then start jumping vertically again. During all this, my boy will be sitting on a bench in the hallway hiding under a throw. He'll peek from inside the throw until I say "Hi Yoshi!" Then, he'll proceed to pounce on his little sister like a cat. Just one pounce. After that, they both race to in the kitchen to get a drink of water. This happens exactly the same way, every single time I walk in the door. So weird.
